Quote ="Noel Cleal"A strange time to play this particular tune. Bradford, a team that has been held bad due to their $h1t hole ground, are near insolvency while Salford and St.Helens are experiencing improved attendances and (I would imagine) financial success.
You would think that this was proof that the RFL pushing for modern Stadia is a good thing.

Salford reckon that they need an average attendance of 10k a game to cover the costs of the new stadium (at least that's what they advised the Cas directors when they were researching the implications of our new ground) so when Salford hit the 10k average for a sustained period you can tell me their new stadium has been a financial success. Until then the financial success does indeed remain in your imagination.
