What more can I say. Going away for a few weeks tomorrow and great news to keep me going. Well done.

Nothing to do with the mess left by the Labour government of 14 years then, it will be Thatchers fault next



Anyway back to Rugby League, something else you know little about

I think you will find it was 13 years 1997 to 2010 but what do I know.

You do talk utter claptrap!

My knowledge of Rugby League clearly buries your quaint and antiquated view of the game, for a little fat bloke who never made the slightest impact on the game as a player, coach, administrator or anything really, you have a big opinion of yourself.

PM each other if you wish to continue chaps.
Amusing as it is.

Back on topic ...

You know him well I see lol

Oh dear, not a lot about rithmatics apparently, fingers' are useful for other things than keyboard's.

Come on guys.
I don't want to lock this topic as its one of the best news stories we have had on here probably all year.

Last warning ... back on topic!

Some context, Salford made a £5m loss and finished 2 points ahead of Trinity.

£2.5 million per point then? I'm surprised that wasn't one of the Dr's suggestions during last season - he came up with several other madcap schemes to make sure his personal wealth advantaged Salford.

If I were a Salford fan, I'd be a bit nervy about his continued involvement - he's chucked good money after bad and ended up with nothing to show; and I gather their ST sales are around the same as ours?

Given time (and who knows how long he will stay there for), Koucash will make Salford a top 8 competitive side BUT, unless the salary cap is abandoned, it will take 20 years plus to turn them into contenders.

The £5 million figure is astonishing. Is this the actual loss on the balance sheet or, the total spend (on contracts) since he came in ?

The Dr isn't the issue. He's bringing money to the club. It's the people spending the money.

Disagree PT, without the Dr, they would be sunk !

It's effectively like a Super League celebrity bake off.

We bought our ingredients from Netto, with the odd Tesco trip and a some grown in our own garden
The doc went shopping at Fortnum and Mason.

The problem is, he is giving the ingrediants to a McDonald's chef with a whole team of 5 stars behind him in a brand spanking new kitchen and we have ours being made by a couple of quality chefs in their mum's kitchen
The quality chef will still do great things.

I think we are agreeing then aren't we?
I'm saying he is keeping them going but the people to make them top 8 are the coaches and those making decisions on players, not the Doc.

It does not matter where you get your ingredients' from PT, the end product won't be as good if most of them are well passed their sell by date

I think some would say the Doc does make the player decisions.

I think the doc has probably made a few signings of his own back i.e. Kevin Locke and BJB and his attempts to sign Tomkins but what SL coach wouldn't want those type of players in there side? Even then I cant imagine he wouldn't even consult the coach - I think generally he puts his faith in Harris. I just cant see MK going out and making signings of Matt Groat, Josh Griffin, Menzies etc.

So Salford are like Leeds United, the boss pulls the strings

Great news however you look at it. Well done to all at the club

Do you realise how silly you really sound - professional Yorkshireman "I like what I say and I say what I blinking well like"

Oh and yes we get it, you did something in the game at some point, whoopdee doo

You're not little though Vasty!


Oops, wrong quote.

Too busy today start sending out warnings.
It baffles me the need to bitch like 10 year old girls on every thread.

I assume we have nothing more to add on this. I'll just lock it.
