Oh Keith.

Why on earth would you choose a user name that includes the material your brain is made from.

I can understand that but didn't Tim Wilby try to do exactly the same thing you all seem to forget that and on Hudgell not all us Rovers fans think he's some sort of god I know he bankrolls us but because he does he kicks off if anyone dares to criticise him and threatens to take his ball home

Some serious things, you as a fan?, and your insipid owner, need to adress, immediately.
1. Loss of £1 million of SL funding.
2. Trying to rebuild confidence in a shattered team, coaching staff and club staff.
3. Trying to get into the top 4 next season, just to make the Play Offs
(you'll find that teams will want to take your particular scalp)
4. Loss of gate income, your bandwagoners have just left the building.
5. Will Tim still be coming with his Salford merry men?
6. Is Peacock really the man for the job.
That's just a few, I can think of.
It seams as though you lot think you'll come straight back, remember the salary cap is still live, so you'll not be able to buy your way out a la Marwan. Can't see you competing with the SL clubs, if you make the play offs. Salford won't make the same mistakes.
We have a season to look forward to and no boring derbies.
You, I think, a few seasons in the lower leagues, whilst Grudge adjusts his finances. He supposedly stumps up £500,000 a year to keep you going? Can he run to £1.5 million, doubt it. Will you go part time?
As Wilf put it "what goes around, comes around".
Hopefully, see you but wouldn't want to be you.

Don't think anyone has said Rovers fans think Hudgell is a god, I myself have just pointed out some of the reasons that many Hul FC fans will not be losing sleep over your clubs demise from SL, the vast majority of it for me is down to Hudgell and the reasons i posted earlier. He has insighted a true bitterness between the clubs over the years and taken what was always a fierce rivalry but added a nasty and bitter edge to it because of his hatred of all things Black & White.

Decent Rovers fans amongst will know only too well that Hudgell is one of the major reasons for your clubs relegation and has left your club in a very precarious position with the reduction in income from next season in the Championship.

What would be a major worry for me if I were a Rovers fan is how you get back up into SL. This season will have been a eye opener to all SL clubs in the fact one of the SL clubs has been relegated for the first time since promotion/relegation has been brought back. SL clubs will now be looking to be even stronger so this doesnt happen to them and those that fall in to the middle 8's will want to ensure they stay in the top 4 so as not to repeat what happened to Rovers.

Seem to remember Wilby and Lloyd wanted to merge the two clubs and have the resultant team and City playing in there planned stadium. The idea was an anathema to all concerened to the point that Roy Waudby tried to buy back FC and eventually proved there downfall.
Barry Lilley on the other hand refused to take 2 SL clubs into Div. 1, because SL was restructured to 12 teams after the breakaway. His actions lead to Hudds merging with Sheffield and FC absorbing Gateshead kuching£££££

Only problem for the rovers chairman was the RFL had already made the proposal for us to merge with Gateshead, but the club wanted to wait and see what the outcome of the vote would be before making a decision on the RFL's proposal

The middle 8s were designed to say to the championship clubs were not stopping you coming up but in reality they never thought it would happen until Leigh's owner bankrolled them at SL level and I don't see anyone including us been like that our only hope really is that SL club implodes the Dr has said he's staying but isn't going to fund them like previous seasons Wakefield are always skint

Forgotten how many times you have c&p this, but its plenty. Each time it gets spelled out but either you refuse to read or are simply not bright enough to understand.

14500 average was not a break even point.

Balancing books = posting profit to cover previous losses.

2 very different things. Most people get it.

Back OT, its was Hudgel who did state he needed 10k averages to break even, that was back in 2014, hows that coming along?

I should hope Koukash doesn't fund them as he has in the past, they'd get points deducted again. SL is supposed to be a level playing field. You have to cut your cloth. As has been stated, other clubs will be alert to Championship Play Offs now the worst has happened, seriously can't see it happening again. I was told Friday night that Marwan was going to ditch Salford if they went down and switch alliegance to Rovers!!!!!

nicely put mal.

would they be disappointed for you

I think the reaction would be exactly the same

ooks like
looks like yours is even more worried
