We weren't when we all feared for our clubs future.
Must be a very anxious time for their fans. Fingers crossed for them.

Slightly different in that our backer was forced to pull the plug. Theirs is still in charge and asking for 600k before the reason even starts. We also acted before the threat of any winding up orders. Feel sorry for the fans who have been lied to/kept in the dark. No club has a divine right to remain where they clearly can't afford to be. I also disagreed very strongly with every aspect of the RFLs behaviour in Bradfords case.
There are clubs working very hard to run a business and successful sports club who get no reward whatsoever for their efforts due to the lopsided nature of funding our now not so great game. Am i right in thinking that without our tax problems last season we would actually have made a profit of £30k+. If a clubs time is up it is up and they can start again from the bottom if they so wish.

Bradford fans rallied round too, as did ours. Their efforts, our efforts and those of Salford fans demonstrate who the Game has always been for, and always will be for - the fans, not SKY!
In Bradford's case, the RFL and other clubs publicly came to their aid - big time. If that is happening for Salford, then it's happening very quietly! Could it be that Salford don't put as much cash through other Sooper Dooper League clubs' turnstiles when they visit them?

| ...and theres me thinking the other SL clubs were doing it for the good of the game. SL clubs can't be as self ed as you suggest, they care about the game in general. Isn't that why they have gone from 2 academy teams to just one, and giving the Champ clubs the responsibility to raise the next generation of SL player.  |

The Watchers memory is not what it used to be but he is pretty sure rugby league was being played for a few years before sky stuck their noses in.

But some more than others, eh? The Championship clubs get money from the RFL, which is probably from the SKY contract. |

I see that Salford see tomorrow's game with Swinton, as "an opportunity to put much needed funds into the bank." I would have thought last week's game with us would have put at least as much money in there? Also, there is no mention of a game against us next week, on their website.
As an aside to this game, I give you a section of the RFL preview of Salford v Swinton: -
[iSwinton Lions have signed =#FF0000six players on a dual registration from Warrington Wolves.
Brad Dwyer, Ryan Shaw, Danny Bridge, Gene Ormsby, Jordan Burke and Gavin Bennion will all make their debuts in tomorrow’s friendly against Salford City Reds at the Salford City Stadium.
“They are all quality players who have come through the ranks at Warrington and we are delighted to have them on board," said coach Steve McCormack.[/i
What was the maximum on D/R's?

Taken from the above RFL news article:
"Under the revisions, Super League and Championship clubs will be able to enter into Partnership Agreements: the 13 UK-based Super League clubshave the option to partner with at least one Championships club; any second partnership must be with a Championship club from Cumbria, the North East, the Midlands, the South West, South Yorkshire, London, Wales or France.
“The majority of clubs are confident that the new systems will aid the development of young players and help them progress to the highest standard possible,” said RFL Director of Performance and Coaching Jon Roberts.
“By entering into partnerships, the Super League and Championships clubs can increase standards by creating increased opportunities for all their players to experience the most competitive first-team action possible.”
=#800000Under current arrangements, the Championships clubs are allowed to field a maximum of four dual-registered or loan players: that will be increased to [size=150five[/size under the new partnership.
But then again if your a 'Super Dupper' club who cares what the rules are? |

That's just a limit on how many you can have in your match day 17 rather than in your overall squad though.

We had the option of fielding 4 DC players last season albeit they did not have to be from 1 club.
Swinton have not been playing in Swinton for a long time and I wonder what we would have had for a fan base had we not been playing in Leigh for so long.
Lets hope they get their ground in Agecroft soon. |

I too am impressed by the way Swinton have survived all these years, away from their home. A new home is now within reach, and I hope they can now flourish. I can remember when they were a top club, fielding several internationals and were feared by all. Some of our SL bretheren would do well to remember 'what goes around, comes around.' (or words to that effect!)
The purpose of my post was not to have a dig at Swinton, more the RFL rules, which appear to be ever changing. For example, the number of 'over age players' allowed on the Under 20's has already changed twice, which must be frustrating, when you have had to release players over the age of 20, only to discover you could actually have kept them in the first place! |
