Some elements of the new site are unfinished, such as; page numbering and quotations. We will fix these minor issues as soon as we can, please bear with us.

| A few days after the church meeting, a few of us were having serious conversations about trying to take over the running of the club ourselves with a supporters' trust. Would we be able to raise the money needed? Keep sponsors? Keep the few fans we had left onside? Who would we appoint in various positions? Would we be able to maintain SL status?.. To come from that position, that worry about the very future of the club's existence, to what we're on the brink of... Well, it's one hell of a turnaround. Whatever happens over the next few years, the main thing is that Salford RLFC have been kept alive and we've all been given an opportunity to watch a competitive side take to the field. Whatever happens after that is a bonus.

| Well, this year, I've been an absent supporter. Not through choice, but the commute from Bangkok seemed a little too long to undertake every fortnight! Last year, my family and I had 5 season tickets. This year, due to being overseas, none.
The church hall meeting was a depressing event, and I seriously thought the end was close. Having watched Watkins, Nash, Fielding, etc, I really thought the sun had set on the club I have supported since being 4 or 5 years old in the early 70s.
Fast forward to today: I'm sat here, in my office, waiting for the announcement of the arrival of what is hopefully the makings of a competitive team. My wife is taking the kids to the match on Friday night for the first time this season, and next year, I'll be back too. I really didn't think that we would be here, so I'm just over the moon that I have the 2014 season to look forward too.
I'll raise a glass of the cold stuff tomorrow night to thank Dr Koukash for all that he is doing, and in honour of the supporters who've stuck around during this tough 12 months. Just glad I'll be able to join you on the terraces again next season.
