It's only two days since Marwan Koucash tweeted "If I am not involved with Salford, I would not be involved in RL at all". Doesn't mention his wife though.

Under RFL rules Marwan cant own 2 clubs so Mandy would have to run one.

He couldn't give Salford away anyhow.

Either he sells us or he appoints a CEO, those are the options.

I expect at first at least we will get a statement similar to the one we got about Sheffield Wednesday, that he isn't in for any money and it will be his day job blah blah blah!! however what is effectively a CEO of a Club like that will take up a lot of his time and is a lot different to an advisors rule at Sheffield Wednesday.

Wonder if Mrs K will take over at Salford to allow the outspoken Dr. to take the reigns at FC. Guess that would put the Noble rumours to bed as well.

Reckon he will stay and bring in a CEO, hopefully an external appointment with some rugby background.
