Both are close to bringing in new investors with quite a bit of cash.

I wonder if we have got anywhere with our own search?

Isn't the HKR guy still a wanted man in Spain?

For a man with £15m to throw at RL you would have thought he could rent/buy a home locally and also have enough loose change to pay private for his dad's treatment.

If this new investment come off for both Salford and HKR it will leave Cas Tigers as the only club without a major benefactor. I know we are indedted to Jack Fulton over the years for propping us up but this is different. Superleague is now run by a small group of individuals who are prepared to loose substantial amounts of money year-on-year. I have my doubts if we are in a position to keep up with the others.

I take it you don't agree?

With what? Him renting a house/flat near his parents so that he is there, but not under their feet, or paying for a private operation?
