| £2.5 million per point then? I'm surprised that wasn't one of the Dr's suggestions during last season - he came up with several other madcap schemes to make sure his personal wealth advantaged Salford.
If I were a Salford fan, I'd be a bit nervy about his continued involvement - he's chucked good money after bad and ended up with nothing to show; and I gather their ST sales are around the same as ours?

Given time (and who knows how long he will stay there for), Koucash will make Salford a top 8 competitive side BUT, unless the salary cap is abandoned, it will take 20 years plus to turn them into contenders.
The £5 million figure is astonishing. Is this the actual loss on the balance sheet or, the total spend (on contracts) since he came in ?

The Dr isn't the issue. He's bringing money to the club. It's the people spending the money.

| It's effectively like a Super League celebrity bake off.
We bought our ingredients from Netto, with the odd Tesco trip and a some grown in our own garden
The doc went shopping at Fortnum and Mason.
The problem is, he is giving the ingrediants to a McDonald's chef with a whole team of 5 stars behind him in a brand spanking new kitchen and we have ours being made by a couple of quality chefs in their mum's kitchen
The quality chef will still do great things.

I think we are agreeing then aren't we?
I'm saying he is keeping them going but the people to make them top 8 are the coaches and those making decisions on players, not the Doc.

It does not matter where you get your ingredients' from PT, the end product won't be as good if most of them are well passed their sell by date

I think some would say the Doc does make the player decisions.

I think the doc has probably made a few signings of his own back i.e. Kevin Locke and BJB and his attempts to sign Tomkins but what SL coach wouldn't want those type of players in there side? Even then I cant imagine he wouldn't even consult the coach - I think generally he puts his faith in Harris. I just cant see MK going out and making signings of Matt Groat, Josh Griffin, Menzies etc.

| Too busy today start sending out warnings.
It baffles me the need to bitch like 10 year old girls on every thread.
I assume we have nothing more to add on this. I'll just lock it.
