I thought you took Barkers articles with a pinch of salt Tony. Typical fickle supporter whom only believes what one wants to believe.

PYB is a foe, so I can't see his post, but I'm guessing he's spouting something negative? I'm right aren't I?





He knows I've blocked him but still responds. Run along now little fella it'll be your bed time soon...

It's the new game, annoy them then see how long it takes them to respond despite us not being able to see.

It's intriguing who this consortium might be, I'd not seen the link with to JD sports before that wouldn't have been a bad thing.

Any wild guesses? Venkys?

Now you're just playing chicken!!

Who?

I reckon Aleef and Chandos Chippy are putting 50p each into a kitty.

I presume this is the Lawrence Jones that is referenced: www.lawrencejones.eu/search-mark ... th-sharks/ Obviously an union fan and if he was involved you'd imagine his aim would be to run both Salford and Sale. Some interesting comments about Sale similarly on the edge of the abyss of bankruptcy, London Irish's win to today won't have done their precarilous position any good.

It's not Lawrence Jones apparently

According to Jack Dearden on Twitter. An interview with JW can be heard on Radio Manchester tomorrow an encouraging prognosis apparently.

Shebby Simms as global advisor?

I suppose one the many encouraging prognosees will eventually come through.

According to Radio Manchester, the WUP has been deferred for a month, which means it won't be heard until after the season has started.

I'm guessing that means we're still in SL for the 2013 season.

JW now needs the £600k by Feb 1st. You're gonna need a bigger bucket

if you were a buisiness man/salford fan with say 10 million.. would you save salford from admin with a cost of ? millions...or wait till admin and buy for next to nothing and invest in a new venture..hopefully you lads get sorted

You will at least start the season, hopefully the full season but you never know.

Good luck guys, know what this is like. I'm sure it'll be OK in the long run.

Not Chicken Tikka , Maybe NZ lamb?

Nigel Wood was at Salford yesterday with Andrew Chalmers from the NZRL .

Chamlers led a bid for the Wellington based 'Southern Orcas' to join the NRL in 2007 , won in the end by the Gold Coast Titans .Then tried to get a team into the expanded 14 team 2009 SL comp. both times backed by a unnamed investor. with grand ideas to take games back to NZ & Dubai [url=http://www.nzherald.co.nz/sport/news/article.cfm?c_id=4&objectid=10433196Wellington group eyes Super League spot[/url
Of course his presence could be merely coincidence.

They own Blackburn Rovers. Their management skills make Tarry look like a world leader in Sports Management.

Good luck guys. I hope this delay gives you the time you need.

Dave Tarry was a genius, hell he got away with it didn't he? pretty much like that charmless oik Marshy takes air from the decent human beings - pity his visit to Brookhouse yesterday didn't involve a wooden overcoat and an elongated black car



I always thought some steel magnet owned that football club? I had dealings with them a billion years ago. Though Christ corner the Indian market and the shirt sales might increase and can you imagine the balti pasties on sale.

Can anyone give me a concrete answer on what will happen to the funds currently being donated by the fans?

I'm not like some doubting the validity of peoples reasons for helping it just strikes me that if new owners/investors come in that FR could end up with a significant balance in the bank with no real plans for it?

Might be nice if FR took peoples comments (valid and sensible ones) on board.

Maybe nice to invest it in the weights that were mentioned earlier on last season for the youngsters to use somewhere on site? Personally I'd like to see it invested in some form in the youth set up as we proved last season we can produce some of the best so surely investment in that process by FR can only help.

FR are having a board meeting this week. I imagine it's on the agenda.

Maybe a full time coach in conjunction with the club for local schools. Get the kids interested in playing and watching for the future (I know, I know. What future)!

I think the people doing the fundraising are brilliant; my only worry is that there's still a danger that their good will/hard work will be taken advantage of.

I'm still dubious about this 'mystery investor' talk and will be until such a time when it's all confirmed ( too many false promises, I'm afraid).

In the meantime, I hope FR keep a tight hold of this money as we might need it if there's a doomsday scenario and it's left to the fans to start from scratch.
