Is Marwan staying or going ?

Tweets are about as important as what I had for tea on May 11th 2001, They're a modern day necessity for some and a complete irrelevance for people like me. This is not ostrich stuff stouffer just a relative gauge of how important it is in real terms. The discusion is not about the salary cap that is done and dusted and the fact that the Doc is not happy about it may be largely useless but it is perfectly understandable.

I think promises were made and little truths left out about the situation at Salford, like selling someone a house and neglecting to mention the plumbing, electrics and damp. I consider that a number.

All of this is about what we consider important the future of the club or the quirks of the owner or come to that the questionable motives of many of his critics. R

We'll have to disagree. I would say that repeatedly and publicly calling the head of an organisation fat is bellend schoolboy stuff at best and potentially damaging at worst. The point is more that his social media persona seems to be just an extension of how he is around the club - jgr off here is clearly a wee bit in the know and paints him as someone who needs to be centre of attention. That can work as a strategy (Richard Branson maybe?), but it plainly hasn't so far.

To extend the analogy, if you buy a house without a full survey then more fool you. Are you honestly suggesting that a business mogul worth an alleged 500 million quid doesn't understand due diligence?

I think the debate is more about whether you think Koukash is capable of delivering. My stance is that up until the appointment of Sheens, his tenure was one of recklessness and unprofessionalism, and I'd say the facts back me up on that one - we've delivered nothing on the pitch and been an absolute circus off it. Have we got one or two more years of Sheens? If we can find another Koukash-wrangler post-Sheens then he's got a chance, otherwise I fear a slide back to old ways. Obviously that's nothing more than a hunch based on personal opinions, but I can assure you that it's my love of Salford that drives my mis-trust of Koukash.

I think the importance of unbiased thought is key here.

We need to sit on the fence and judge things without attachment or emotion to get to some part of the truth of matters. Otherwise, we're just running-out our own opinions, which is fine, but with those opinions come our own prejudices and bias. Being able to offer opinion without those biases is the most important thing. Modern news and social media are rife with emotional feelings engaged before the brain settles in. For some it seems that they thrive on professional outrage at any slight, and others who wont change opinion based on facts. It's a hazardous environment.

The trouble with a lot of people who talk about MK is that they do it from a certain point of view. Negative or positive. Not many offer reasoned opinion highlighting both or pointing out their own shortcomings.

This isn't a pop at anyone on here just a point of view I feel strongly about. I always try to see both sides of a story before I give my opinion, and will always do so.

Maybe me thinking too much in to it, but to me there was no way 2100 there today, id say double that. Could it be messing with the figures to give marwan an excuse for bailling?

A proper and full post match review will follow but one of the most professional performances I've seen from Salford in my lifetime, defence was outstanding, attack at times sublime and Tim Sheens inspired game management when needed.

How often can we all say that about Salford?

I honestly think if he was going to leave now wouldn't be the right time to do it. We've easily got our best squad in the Super League era and somehow he's persuaded the main man Tim Sheens to run our Rugby department. If we can keep these players together with a few quality additions for next season and get rid of some of the dead wood in the squad, there's potential for a strong year in 2017.

Simon Orange and Ged Mason would be taking over at the very good time indeed if they were to come in with a bid for the club.
