In the same way that Paul Dennet represents the Council, John Blackburn I understand represents the Club. I’m not sure if Paul Dennet empties my bins or undertakes child care for Salford residents but I could check that if you wish as well
My initial post was supposed to be positive and complimentary to the whole Club in the same way I tried to be positive about Paul Dennet and the City…. via the leaders of those two organisations..I’ve no idea of all the employees and committee members of the Club or the City who were involved and I am sure there are many at all levels doing their best….nor do I want to know
I’m not on Lindekin, Twitter, Facebook or all the other links that might get me into even more trouble…so thanks for the update on whatever that event is..I’ll look out for it on the Website

So in your eyes John Blackburn is the leader so why are you not naming him when slagging the board off?!can’t have it both ways!john Blackburn has had nothing to do with any dealings with the council so again what are we congratulating him on?!but let’s see if you slag him off if we have made losses again or is he not the leader then?!

Amazing this; I understand John Blackburn became the new Chair after the Community Club vote, recently, so he was the person leading the Club..I was merely trying to be positive for the ‘potential’ monies coming in to the new Community Club…if things go wrong during his tenure, he takes responsibility for that. Presumably this year the Community Board had to fulfil a budget set by the previous Board but who knows…It was an attempt to be a positive vote for the new Community Club..but it seems lost in the hiatus.
End of for me…I can’t explain things in simpler terms.
i try not to ‘slag’ people off…but when the Club suffers a loss and has to sell its best players to survive then to me there is an issue…if you think that’s normal, that’s ok, because that’s your view

Well god help us if John Blackburn is leading the club because like I said he couldn’t even reply when I wanted a memorial brick and he was contact!and the point I keep asking is what are you congratulating him on when he has not done anything with the council to start the ball rolling on monies for the club?!or is because it was Paul king that has done all the hard work with the council and even though you don’t slag people off that doesn’t suit your agenda?!

I really am v v sorry about your brick…if I ever see JB I’ll mention it to him.
I understand John Blackburn is leading the Club because he was voted in…the first Chair of the Community Club to be voted in..I think the previous Board was by a private selection process. I don’t know much about John or his abilities but because there was a democratic process in which I could take part I will support him…and if I feel Board needs feedback in anyway and I feel strongly about it I will express it on here, openly. My first attempt to support the newly elected Board has been interesting…it was genuinely meant to support the Board and the Club
I’ll leave other issues…if you don’t understand the roles and respondibilities of Chair and Leader of Council you can Google them
I have no agenda but like everybody on here I have a view

Same here with Paul king I will mention to him how bitter you still are they didn’t use your ideas!I know the roles but again John Blackburn had no input in any of the council business so why are you congratulating someone who put zero work into it?if you think John Blackburn is in some way the head of the club like John Wilkinson marwan or Paul then you are very much mistaken I’m afraid!

And John Blackburn was not voted chairman by any of us the people on the board gave him the role was nothing to do with any of us let’s see what commercially he does and what players he gets in because from what I know it’s not him making those decisions!

John Blackburn isn’t the ‘leader’ of the club and everyone knows that, if you don’t, then you haven’t been reading or watching what has been going on re the new structure. The CBS board have an important role but they don’t have any decision making authority other than signing off the club’s budget and holding Paul King to account. They have no role in recruitment, determining salaries, representing the club at external meetings and day to day running of the club.
Paul King and the other Ops Board members are the ones that have steered the club magnificently over the last few years and without their guile, grit and determination we simply would not exist as a professional rugby league club. Granted it’s been a roller coaster of a ride to say the least but we can now sail into calmer waters.
We should all be thanking our lucky stars we have such a dedicated and talented leadership team👹👹👹

John knows exactly the role John Blackburn has at the club. He’s playing dumb as usual

I’m with you Chief and thanks
I posted trying to compliment the newly elected Community Trust Board..which we all voted for but it seems there are some who don’t seem to realise it’s happened…I’ve just been trying to explain my view..they seem to be making it personal…so like you if anybody wants to continue making it personal…do so off line, I’m fed up of trying to explain the obvious
As I’ve said many times..you know my open view..end of from me.
And I’m really sorry about that brick😉
As an aside Chief as a Lanky supporter will they stay in Div One…great win today…but Lanky 3 wins below Warwick 1 win..v v odd

What you thanking him for?!he includes you in the bickering comments!as for the brick,the point is the guy couldn’t even organise that so if he can’t do that he certainly won’t be getting deals with councils and Chinese businessmen!but you carry on congratulating him and the other Salford fans who are grateful to the board and Paul king will congratulate them those are the views and your entitled to yours!😉silly wink to copy yours!
