And demanding that teams that get nilled at home get special dispensation of a 10 point start in their next game ....or they can offer to buy the points off another team !

| Salford are light years away from being a mid-table side, let alone top four or even GF winners.
As for their dodgy new owner, I don't rate him. Their fans will be screaming for his head before too long.

Rubbish...they've already beaten London away this season, scoring 44 points in the capital...it's not like they did that last year.

Ok he makes outlandish statements, but he is starting to give Salford an identify and turn it into a brand.
He's tuning a team who have been basement dwellers, posted small crowds and had no identify even in Salford into something bigger and better. In a couple of years they WILL be challenging for honours and considering what sort of club Salford have been, it's good for the game.
I think the first thing in Koukash's shopping list though is a hooker. One of most important positions and they have two woeful players playing there.'"
Pretty much this. If other club chairmen were as enthusiastic in talking up the game as Koukash is, we'd have significantly fewer problems as a sport than we currently do.
It was quite refreshing in his pre match interview to see him laying down the gauntlet those club chairmen that are holding this sport back, rather than following fashion and blaming the RFL for the world's ills.

Steady on Brucie, I think the fans are chuffed to bits with the guy.
Perpetual strugglers to mid table isn't a bad start and I think he will splash some more cash to make then more competitive.
The problem wont be the fans wanting rid but, he could lose patience.

| I think he's a breath of fresh air, and providing he doesn't saddle the club itself with debt (or borrow against it's assets) or other Bradrord-style shennaeghans then let him spend what he wants, it's HIS money and this is a DEMOCRACY not North flamin' Korea!
I think any club should be able to spend what it can afford, but we should have a rule of no "borrowing" or other financial skulduggerry! If that means a sugar-daddy can come along and bankroll Hunslet or Swinton to the Grand Final.....then so be it!

Seconded. On the pre-match build up on Radio Manchester, the Manchester Evening News' RL writer Neil Barker made the point that no-one in the national media knows what's going on at Leeds (for example), but they know what's happening at Salford.
He's not a breath of fresh air, he's a tornado.

Would the salary cap not have been democratically voted in by the clubs?
And at the time it was voted in clubs like Salford would more than likely have voted in favour as it suited them would they not?
I don't know if your a Salford fan or not?
For the record whilst I understand the reasoning for a salary cap, it has done nothing to improve the competition.
