London 'Ands at least has a Cockney ring to it! But will mean nothing to anybody outside the M25. Now get out of my pub.

Are they locating to Barking, or the Isle of Dogs. Or just Barking,,,,,

But at what cost? a lot of people will lose money and walk away. It is a dreadful look for RL. Surely dodgy practices shouldn't succeed.

Maybe there are enough people who stand to lose a lot of money if they go bust have put money in to keep them going?

This can kicking exercise is quite remarkable. The chickens will surely come home soon. A slow car crash. Must be incredibly painful for the fans. Is a quick death better than a slow one? Maybe it is the hope that kills you?

The Council pulled out of a deal that would have provided a sustainable future for SRD. They do bear some responsibility in this situation. As do a lot of others. Very sad indeed

I disagree, the Council sustained an unsustainable club who are/were living well beyond their means. There was a deal where the SRD moved to Moor Lane and a more sustainable environment but the Council were persuaded to continue funding a financial basket case of a club and so the deal collapsed. The Council then were in a bind and without a big Sugar Daddy it was only a matter of time before some 'sharks' came along with a view to make a fast buck on the land around the stadium. Salford City Council has come out of this looking very foolish and have only helped the demise of SRD.

Indeed. the enmity between Manchester and Salford goes all the way back to 1642 at the battle of Salford Bridge in the English Civil War. Blood was shed. There is a river of history between us.

Certainly better than Corrie, and about as many laughs (none in the case of Corrie).

Not sure how three teams can share the same stadium. There is quite an overlap of both codes seasons.

Did more Wigan fans travel to Las Vegas than attended last night? #JustAsking

The land surrounding the ground is potentially very valuable. When Salford CIty nearly bought in, the land was a big factor. Would not surprise me if the 'new owners' were more interested in the land than the club. I wonder if the old deal that the Council 'reneged' on is back on the table, whereby the football club move in and the Red Devils end up at Moor Lane?

On the other hand with the Wombles eyeing automatic promotion they may not need the nuisance of RL at Plough Lane. The damage to the pitch may be an issue. To be sure it will be a downgrade moving from a great ground as decent stadiums ain't cheap in London. The London RL merry-go-round spins again. New River is yet another 'new' ground for the Broncos, anyone make a stab at how many 'home grounds' they have had now?

But when are the eye tests? Or have I missed something?

Eccles has the advantage of always being underrated. I doubt very much with the injuries in the squad that the Broncos will win until Easter at the earliest.

Swinton played at Moor Lane for a while.

Salford City FC were very keen to share, an informal deal had been done with the SRD moving to Moor Lane. Looks like that could be on again if what we are hearing is true. Salford City FC were not happy when that deal fell through however.

They have left League 1 and gone amateur.

Hope this is good for both parties!

Football struggling in Gtr Manchester? City and Utd have never been stronger. Bolton going well as are Stockport and the Ammies. Surely some mistake.

Columbia Tough Mothers and.....Hornsey Lambs.

There must be quite a few Aussies who would do the usual surfing trail to Newquay and St Ives might be tempted to stay the summer, work part time and play some footy? Can't see it working, it would need a core of RL players but others could learn quickly. They will be battling with West Wales and Skolars for the bottom spot. Good luck to them but they need to dig good roots and promote like hell. Cornwall is one of the few places in England where football is not big and rugby union is the main sport. Teams may need to stay over night so that will be a real problem for LG1 teams with no cash. I think Perez has missed a trick and should have set up in Bristol.

A Forth team or is it a fifth?

Once saw Sean Edwards at a KFC in Poplar. He convinced me that the Broncos were going to win at St Helens (Up till then they never had) the next week. Blow me down they did. Must have been the cockney fried chicken.

Broncos must be unique to have played home games in 4 different countries!
