They seem big on this story over the Pennines "Manchester Club" ha ha. Without getting over conspiratorial, Interesting that it's coming from Leeds......Ian Blease might know a thing or two, although having met him he's a belting bloke so he must be in a funny position. I hope they get it sorted with this Australian takeover kicking in, but the article states "several weeks" well that doesn't fit the timescale with the start of the season looming. As others have stated it's a real problem that should have been put to bed at the end of last season to preserve the integrity of the competition.

I think the RFL have been too busy tinkering with the laws of the game & disciplinary procedures to worry about the financial viability of Salford ,Rico, & the damage that might cause to the credibility of Rugby League.

They should maybe look to allow Salford players to be taken on 'loan' for a season without it counting on the cap, Salford would still retain the player and not get a transfer fee, but they would release the wages off Salford's bill this year. SL clubs could send players to Salford who are generally ready to make the step up, but are kept out of the first team squad, without a cost to Salford, this would allow Salford to still have a competitive squad this year whilst they sort out the financing then their loan players would go back to them next season.
