I don't have a problem and don't really know why we would care.
They've agreed a deal with their council and it helps them.
But it doesn't affect us.

Doesn't it?
As an example, in way does their inflated league position not affect us? |

Why is it inflated?
They haven't cheated to stay in SL and from now on they are assessed by IMG same as us. |

Because if you take £300k of salary out of their team, they wouldn't be finishing anywhere near as high as they do.
They'd be wooden spoon candidates.

| Quote: Scarlet Pimpernell "Let us not forget the our own council gave us £2m plus they provided the money to buy the ground. The latter was of course a loan and needs to be paid back but I believe they granted us a reasonable length of time before the first payment.'"
Plus Cas and Feath got the same |

But they didn't do anything wrong to get that money. They agreed terms with the council, just like we did.
So they don't need to take £300k out.
It's bad business and will bite them one day, but it isn't against any SL rules. |

Who mentioned rules?
It's distasteful and immoral.
Using council funding to operate isn't the best look.
Using those funds to then pay big-name players whilst defaulting on a huge portion of your rent is even worse. |

So I go back to my point that it doesn't affect us.
It's their choice.
If its not against the rules it isn't causing us a problem |

How is them getting a better IMG score than they should for performance not affecting us, or the wider game?
However, I'm certainly not attacking the SRD position from the viewpoint of a Wakefield supporter - I think it's a completely ridiculous situation for the game.
We disagree about it's importance, I guess.

What we disagree on is whether they get those points unfairly.
Morally I wouldn't be too happy especially if I lived in Salford
But from what I see, it's just a deal they got away with.
I don't think anyone would complain if our council wrote off our loan. |

The Wakefield Express had us on the front page when Mat took over, telling the Wakefield Council to make us pay back a loan that we were paying back all ready .Do not how Salford get away with it

The annual Salford need a cash boost article. They really are flying by the seat of their pants now. I listened to Paul King interview recently and they are hanging everything on been able to sweat the asset that is the AJ Bell, but I don't think that will offset these kind of short falls.
I'm presuming the council cash pot has dried up now that they're buying the stadium.
