London and Toulouse both played the entire regular season in the Championship without a main jersey sponsor (for instance as you can see here at the Summer Bash). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMVjn41dwkc I mentioned this a couple of times on forums but nobody seemed especially interested, I thought it was quite a significant story. They both belatedly got a main jersey sponsor for the play-offs. London in particular have been a basket case off the field for quite a few years now. They've alienated a huge chunk of what wasn't a particulalrly large fan base as a result.

You can not make it up ,it is a disgrace

They have only sold 700 season tickets, hopefully a few more get on board now for them.

Given the uncertainty about if / where they would be playing, this is probably understandable.
Like every other club, they need some stability before they can grow and since Koucash left, they haven't had any..

You could ague that they didn't have any when he was there, left them with more debt than when he started and no progress on the ground

Hope they have better luck dealing with them than Doncaster Airport....

All clubs are doing everything possible to be in the top 12 decided by IMG’s ratings. I bet there are supporters at every club not A rated looking for any negatives from the other teams. I suppose this is an attempt to calm any internal fears they may hold regarding Trinity’s own status. We know what we need to do and now we are capable of meeting these requirements to stay in the top 12.
The other clubs also know but based on the provisional ratings they have to do more to pass us and we will be adding further known points not considered in the provisional ratings.

Are they out of special measures now ? I guess they must be

Haven’t seen anything. They’ve signed a few whilst in them so suspect they will be in special measures until their situation improves.

Personally had it not been for two reasonably successful seasons on the pitch I think Salford would have really struggled and collapsed as a club. Their recent finals etc have pretty much kept their head above water but one bad season and could all go pear shaped for them.
