I remember when he came he was given certain promises and said he was trying to create a dynasty They built a great squad between the Club and the coaching staff but 5 of his best players had to go
Presumably he’s lost faith in the Club and for an ambitious guy it must be hard to take esp if Hull is his destination😩. I was surprised he carried on this season
Not sure what the new structure of the Club is…has the Old Holding Co completely gone?

Better run? I think with the budget we've got we're an excellently run club. Maybe if a couple of thousand more Salfordians got off their arses and came to games then we'd have the funds required to kick on. Again it’s up to us to promote to them, find bigger sponsors no doubt they’ve done a job keeping us going but we have to keep doing better. You can’t sit there demanding people turn up you happy entice them Again that’s the job of the Holding Company Board Im not sure of the role of the CBS Board ( I can’t be bothered reading all the gunge) but the Non Elected Board….Holding Company ( Rosler, King et al) would seem to still hold the power and authority So they’re the ones who need to be generating crowds money and of course income from the ground Seems odd that a Community Club is still being governed effectively by a Non Elected Boar

It’s what we are tho…a feeder club…at least we’re in SL next year
Let’s hope some of the ifs, possibles and maybes come true and we might move forward…but at the mo all we’re fed is why nots, reasons/ excuses and buts.. until money needed and then we’re on board
Strange way to run a Community Club

Fair play his tackling has improved by far, he does run hard in a number of games….but then….no consistency Perhaps he’s better no starting but coming on as 1st change

In the end, I think you’ll find, that it was the Club that wouldn’t engage fully….but that’s in the past…looking forward…has all the old Board gone anf a new one now in residence?
Sorry but I lost interest in the mechanics of it all and everything was engendered in a sudden burst of activity.

The ST is well run but do the Club communicate and involve them or just use them for Fundraising and help when needed
Has the Old Board totally given over to the newly Elected Board…maybe an item on their first agenda.

We need his size but I hope he gets his attitude right

Well I don’t know the ins and outs but having monthly fundraising nights would help and not just at the same place all the time Also better merchandise which the supporters trust could supply with maybe half the profits going to the club These are sound ideas but they only scratch the surface

It’s the Boards remit and responsibility to raise funds.
I agree the Club Board seems to work in isolation and totally misses out on the resource that’s @vailsble
We are, as you intimated, a Community Club in name only; a number of us, with experience, ability and wide ranging connections, did put lots of time in to try to help but in the end we wasted our time; the only thing generated by us utilised by the Club was a fully researched Community Share Ownership Scheme, of which the Club eventually utilised part and achieved about a third of its target. We and others gave up; sadly
As I’ve said it seems to be a Private Members Club at times but as you say, things need to change.

After last season he must be gutted, the Club really let him down; our predicament is always put down to somebody else’s faultI, when in reality it’s about planning. I wouldn’t blame him.
I’ve said this all along EB that we’re a survival and feeder Club; ambition maybe but we seem to live on hope
AMBITION (or HOPE) without fully developed STRATEGIC PLANNING in the end is just a DREAM..

The way Rowley has been let down, having to to keep building new teams, letting his best players go and working with little money easily gives him a reason But Hull seems strange Why would he want to work under Myler; he’s forgotten more than Myler knows Why would he uproot to Hull; a Leigh lad who support's Bolton living in a lovely part of Worsley, Why would he put his family thro it; children’s education, friends etc Why destroy the Band of Brothers he’s generated Money, challenge, feeling of the Club living on empty promises, relationships within the Club

Our right edge defence as always been poor this is how we defend people go on about missing sio but look back at tries scored and there the same as this season really jamming in leaving a big gap,so it’s not the players it’s the system employed really! Or the players we can afford

Our R Edge defence is v poor but we’ve had 5 new players trying to gel out there Hankinson, Cust, Ryan, McDonald Nofu…so perhaps we can hope it’ll sort in time And Brierleys covering not the best this season As Sneyd says the half backs will take time to get to know each others game, so Sneyd needs to dominate at the mo until Cust and him gel…my fear with Cust …..seems his lack of speed and lack of backing up Rowleyball perspective www.youtube.com/watch?v=wet5psrCY8gMike Eccles perspective www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMsBY45uTVk
