they’ve done so many good things, with some superb recruitment. Alas, there probably wouldn’t have been and issue if they could have stayed at the Willows. Hopefully something can be sorted out for them, to survive and keep their rightful place in SL.

Of course they had some superb recruitment - THEY DON'T PAY THEIR RENT!

They are a sham club, with an unsustainable business model.

The fan ownership ploy was simply to try and see the season out and hope the council would save them YET AGAIN!

They have no right to be in SL.

Highest ranked grade B under the IMG algorithm….how do IMG explain that. Any more proof needed that this whole grading system is a joke. Aside from this, hope the good people of Salford are

I blame Sale Sharks they are like vultures. Look at what they did to Stockport County 20 years ago.

Not a fan of any club with this business model.

It only ever ends in tears.

It's unsustainable.

The folly of the fan ownership fundraiser was highlighted at the time - it's one-off banked and spent.

Should have stayed at the willows.

Wasn't an option was it?  Having to sell up back then to pay outstanding debts was where it all started to go pear shaped.

Wasn't much different to Wakey (I'll not name the guy) selling off Belle Vue under similar circumstances.  At least two subsequent near bankruptcies for us until Carter came along.  Relegation in the end.

They’ve been unsustainable for 50 years tbf, but have managed to sustain themselves.

He mentions 8% ticket price - that is dirt cheap for stadium  rental and profit on secondary sales is low

Don't they write as taking an EXTRA 8%?

Anyway, I've worked it out. It's just a ruse to get visits to their website.

This bit cracks me up - "there has been a developing narrative that the Club is not paying its way, when in reality the unfavourable terms of the current tenancy agreement is extracting from the Club’s key income sources, on top of rent."

 

YOU HAVE NEVER PAID YOUR FULL RENT!

Hopefully. 

And then what?

And what of the Salford tax payers?

And what of the increasing rent-debt (also underwritten by Salford Council)?

And what of their ongoing mega-signings?

Did someone from Salford run over Dboys dog or something?

Yes they did.

And I'm still waiting for them to pay the vet's bill.

In truth, I'm ###### off that the "game" has looked the other way whilst watching another Bulls-style implosion!

What would you have wanted ‘the game’ to do about Salfords stadium situation?
