Lack of sponsorship is not our main problem.

Name change to Manchester would not bring any benefit.

Salford, Swinton, Oldham, Rochdale cannot join to form a 'superclub'.



What our club needs is:



1) An improved team, competitive most weeks ( 20014 - 20015)

2) Better engagement between the club and existing fans (see other thread)

3) Improved access to stadium grounds by having a second entry/exit route across the canal ( late 2014)

4) Direct access to M60 from car park (2015)

5) Development of area around stadium to provide more facilities for visitors

6) Landscaping of stadium grounds ( hopefully with some Willow trees) to improve visual appearance of the stadium site.

7) Implement phase 2 and 3 of the stadium plan to give a much better atmosphere in the ground.



These things might take years but they could all happen.

Any links with Swinton, Oldham and Rochdale should be cooperation that benefits all clubs but allows each to maintain its identity.

Deal red fusilier, you will recognise me in my 1970's garb ha ha

Cheers Hillbilly I know exactly where The Brit is, wasn't it a Wilson's pub back in the day? Holt's is my favouite so The Waggon, Wellie and Red Lion were hard to leave in favour of a trip over the road or indeed to the Dog and Partridge I rarely nicked in there for a pint of draught Bass and that was handier.



Grumbling's OK BTW can't see you guys doing much of itr next season

Hang on a minute Black Cat, this forum seems to want it's cake and eat it? Any problems pre Koukash was the old regime nowt to do with whats going on now seems to be the message.



Yet you seem to be saying that the club's contribution is based on the fact that it has history on its side. Does it have any more history than say Swinton and by merely being around to be moved to a shiney new ground isn't really a contribution is it?



My point about the club's contribution, or lack of it, was of course aimed at the financial aspect of your move to Barton.,The City Council and Peel appear to have funded it and whilst I'm not sure about my facts I don't think the club's purse was open at the time, not to mention the business plan with 8,000 through the door every other week not really happening and is there still some back rent due may be from the 'old club'?



Great work

Then you should do some more research, start with Red City Developments.

Thanks for your input again Uncle Rico, smashing stuff. As I've suggested to a previous poster on this topic, your issue appears to be with UK companies law. Perhaps contacting your MP might be the thing to do if you have any concerns?
