How long before Salford go under?? https://www.salfordreddevils.net/seasonupdate/

Hmmm doesn't sound good at all, let's see how many fans emerge with the half season tickets available.

Wonder if we'll see any clubs making offers for the likes of Junior Sa'u or Robert Lui.

This bit is interesting. Have I missed something? How is this season more important than others in terms of p&r?

The writing was on the wall the minute the Doctor pulled out.

It will be a sad day if they go under

It wasn't that long ago Phil Clarke tipped them to be SL Champions.

That, i agree with.

Shackled with impossibly high rent and mickey poor crowds, without Koucash's funding, Salford look extremely vulnerable and the article just highlights the trouble that they are in.
Even with the debt write off, unless they can massively negotiate their their rent at the AJ Bell or, miraculously find another 4/5000 fans, I dont see how they can survive and while the RFL are determined to explore N.America the heartlands continue to disappear.

Their new home just hasn't delivered either on facilities, location or increasing interest in Salford.

IF Salford start to look really shaky, you can expect Toronto to be put forward to take their place next season, with or without MPG success.

That my friend is all to true but maybe they can manage in the championship or league 1

Presumably there is an element of "get inside before the door is shut" thinking in this statement. It's a sad state of affairs that we entered a season, and there was (and perhaps still is) this sort of confusion about what teams were actually playing for.

The stadium just hasn't delivered. It was under-developed and in the wrong location. Sale have made very public noises about their future there as well.

It is sad, but ultimately Salford are a semi-pro operation in a pro competition. They’ve never had the crowds or the finance to compete in the SL era, and their efforts to stay in the top division are , perversely, what is killing them.

A rational approach would be to accept the limitations of their current set up, volunteer to play in the championship from next year, and cut their cloth to preserve the club for the future. On this path, they are going to try to save everything, and as a result lose the lot.
