Ok he makes outlandish statements, but he is starting to give Salford an identify and turn it into a brand.

He's tuning a team who have been basement dwellers, posted small crowds and had no identify even in Salford into something bigger and better. In a couple of years they WILL be challenging for honours and considering what sort of club Salford have been, it's good for the game.

I think the first thing in Koukash's shopping list though is a hooker. One of most important positions and they have two woeful players playing there.
How can a man who didn't know a scrum from a hooker 2 years ago tune anything.
He will have advisors telling him how the sport of RL works.

It's like me starting to watch lacrosse and in 2 years time be expected to know enough to run a lacrosse team.
I would need advisors advising me which players to acquire as well as which coach is best for the job.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!

I reckon the good doctor must have something pretty damning on Phil Clarke though.....

Did you get rid of all the voices in your head? Do you now miss them and the things that they said?

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.

Salford are light years away from being a mid-table side, let alone top four or even GF winners.

As for their dodgy new owner, I don't rate him. Their fans will be screaming for his head before too long.

Rubbish...they've already beaten London away this season, scoring 44 points in the capital...it's not like they did that last year. :CURTAIN:

I wish everyone would read bramleyrhino's post two or three times just to get it through some thick skulls


Mr bramleyrhino speaks a lot of sense.

Pretty much this. If other club chairmen were as enthusiastic in talking up the game as Koukash is, we'd have significantly fewer problems as a sport than we currently do.

It was quite refreshing in his pre match interview to see him laying down the gauntlet those club chairmen that are holding this sport back, rather than following fashion and blaming the RFL for the world's ills.
