The stadium seems to be key and there are a few sticking points sale and peel holdings can't see council blocking the sale but sale have been paying rent we have not and impression I get is we don't get stadium be happy when confirmed this could still go either way but am optimistic with interviews sound positive. But till done we still could be left high and dry yet. Let's hope Monday is the announcement we all want

A Salford club, owning their stadium, competing for big signings and pushing for top spot, sounds too good to be true, but for rugbys sake hope it comes off.

Good luck Salford

Think like everyone else I was hoping for some form of announcement today, I just hope the delay is down to the Doc getting closer to a deal for the stadium too.

Does anyone know if there is any form of deadline for new players being registered before the first game/s of the season? Would be a wonderful event to not only have the new owner in place but also the new players that have been targeted all introduced to the crowd against Wigan in the league.

No their isn't any deadline for signing new players its not like football RL can transfer players when they want.

Normally for UK players the day before a game...but I seem to recall Cooke signing for HKR and playing the same day.

Overseas players at least six weeks often longer.

This waiting is making me nervous...

Hopefully the finer points will be finalised very soon, and the Dr can lead us into the Promised Land.

Not only that, but hopefully he will produce the Promised Turf...

this wait is more nerve-wracking than when we're 2pts in front at an away game with 2 mins left and the home team are on our line !!

Re: Dr Marwan Koukash : Tue Jan 22, 2013 3:05 pm  

Well let's hope this all has a happy outcome, cos we all know what would happen in that scenario...

According to interviews it was not far off but how many times do we here that. I would presume its all got to be passed by RFLP and even the courts before they can announce and sorting what is owed out. But have a feeling it could be peeel and sale that's the main issue but it's biting our nails time. A typical scenario for are club. Let's just hope we get good news for a change
