If finances weren't an issue then am wondering how other fans feel aboutthw below question?
Would you rather stay in the Super League and be in a perennial battle for survival every season?
Or
Would you take relegation to the championship, visit some of the historical grounds as the big fish and see our side pick up more wins than losses for once?
I would personally prefer the latter and given if Koukash does indeed write off any of our debts I can still only see us being relegated this or next season. Am hoping for an unlikely upturn in performances and fortune but looking at our points scored especially we just dont score enough points to survive currently.

Personally, I think I would prefer to stay in Super League and hope that we could some how one day, bring a squad together that could challenge for honors (before it was inevitably cherry picked by the bigger clubs). Sadly however, I dont think the choice you have suggested realistically exists. Even if Marwan rights off his portion of the debt, outside of Super League we cant afford to service our remaining debt. For me its a straight choice between Super League survival or oblivion.

Unfortunately I agree, the ground is killing us. Unless we get outside investment and get our own ground/ share with Salford city ( with development) then I’m worried. However I am the eternal optimist and I also don’t think Marwan would see us die

I am intrigued by the proposed changes to SL, especially as the RFL have yet to ratify and restructure. I am 100% certain that if Toronto and Toulouse fail to be promoted via the qualifiers this seadson then cannot see them being allowed to lay dormant in the championship for too long. Would see the 14 team SL fast tracked in. The RFL badly want to see Catalans, Toulouse, Toronto and London in the top league, with the door being left ajar for a potential New York club and Bradford. This would leave clubs like Salford, Widnes and Wakefield in the danger zone. Am discounting HKR as the derby with FC is seen as a marquee event in the SL calendar.

I unfortunately can see relegation this season coming, potentially for both us and Widnes as Toronto, Toulouse and Leigh would seem currently to be stronger teams than both. The parachute payment would see us safe for 2019 but with 1 up 1 down then in would see the odds on us being re-promoted with our current situation, finances, ground, fan base to be very slim.

Wouldn't normally be bothered about relegation but anyone expecting us to be a 'big fish' in the current championship will be in for a big shock.
We can't get people to watch us in SL so I don't think we'll get many watching us as a mid table championship side.

He says we have to break even and he will right off the 5 million HE put on the club with his stupid signings and ideas. I would rather us sell most of the squad and break even just to see that tossers face when he has to write off the debt he dumped on us. Why do people still think the gobshite is some sort of Messiah
