I can imagine that moving to a club in financial difficulties may not be hugely appealing to Lane, Fash and Sao.

What would be in it for the players? I can’t see any players from any SL club wanting a swap as who’d want to risk not getting paid but especially 3 players based or settled in Hull.

Also I know it was last season but Macdonald was there the Sky research had Salford’s wage bill down as ridiculously low, only just higher then part time London. Swap deals with established SL players won’t likely work for Salfords financial situation because the players coming in likely wouldn’t be far off what they pay ‘stars’ like Macdonald anyway.

Exactly some fans think it easy, click your fingers and you can get rid of players and replace them.
