I’m interested as to why you admire Salford?
If you mean this years team then fair enough, but as a club Jesus wept.
They are an utter drag on the game.
No academy of any sort.
A ground they are only tenants and tenants who have not paid any rent in years. Should the landlord actually start demanding payment they will go pop in 24 hours.
Worst of all is that this years team has been assembled on the never never. There is no way they can afford that team let alone sustain it.
Now the bills need paying watch that team disperse with indecent haste.
It certainly not the way I want our club run, that’s how we got where we were under Glover.
FWIW, the only clubs I admire in how they are run are
Leeds
Saints
Warrington
Wigan to a lesser degree
and Trinity.
The rest are living off loans and hand outs.
Sorry just stumbled across this post Vasty and as usual you've outdone yourself here.
1) We requested an academy license and weren't given one (but I'm sure you know that already). Koukash disbanded our previous academy.
2) "This year's team has been assembled on the never never". Like to back that comment/guff up with facts? Our pack has been assembled on the cheap with pretty much cast-offs from every other team and our backline includes 2 players discarded by Wigan, a player promoted from the championship, a winger who has been with us since 2019, a FB who has split his career between SL & the Championship and 2 NRL rejects. One of those was working as a labourer having not played pro-RL in over 12 months and the other one is a brilliant SO who was so poorly treated by his NRL team he's had to come across to the SL to resurrect his career.
So based on #2 response above feel free to give me a breakdown on which of those players are going to be bankrupting the club.
Clown.
PS. The fact you admire 4 clubs who take great pride in $hitting all over the rest of RL (your club included) pretty much makes your comments even more laughable.
There again, half of nothing is nothing.
