No it was changed to December so anyone who is out of contract at the end of this season can seek another club.

I think upthetrin is talking about the deadline for signing and registering new players during a season, I believe it is sometime in August.

Think original question relates to in season transfer deadline rather than contract renewals?

One thing that has changed in regards potential Salford acquisitions is the fact now Leeds will have cap space to make approaches for players too after the Sivo injury.

Given he hasn’t played in a competitive game I believe the full value of his salary will be removed from their cap.

Thats what I mean, transfers for signing new payers for this season not the next.

What is the current situation re Salford?
It seems to have all gone quiet, are they hoping that if nowt's said then it'll go away?

Not sure but it surely has to come to a head sooner rather than later either way.

They think they might have investment now so trying not to sell.

Reading an article yesterday, Hull are putting offers to king and the offers aren't getting any further than that. It appears Salford are insistent on holding out to the last minute to get investment.

I thought that a condition of the advance was that their finances were looked into and they were told to reduce costs by 800k. They appear to have other ideas. Dangerous game to play.

I’ve little sympathy for them and I’m guessing some clubs are probably losing patience.

100%, probably RFL will bye them out

I’m not sure the RFL will be too thrilled by them either tbh. Wasn’t it the RFL that’s told them to reduce by 800k and Salford appear to have just carried on.

That said I’ve really lost interest in the Salford saga.
