We were lucky to get Thirkill in any situation but nobody was ever going to be interested in Salford for rugby reasons and that situation seems way more complex than ours. The ground is on valuable commercial land and Salford council have promised the RL club that they will sign over the ground, land and a valuable advertising board space for them to develop. That all sounds great for Salford but nobody is going to start to pay the debts of a rugby league club until the land is officially signed over and that could take months.
For all the slaver we get about not ‘owning’ our ground from that lot at least it’s meant that anyone invested in our club is for rugby reasons only.

Is McDonald exempt from the overseas quota?
As far as I'm aware the RFL haven't mentioned anything regarding cap or quota with salford.
Maybe Rovers will try and bribe big Nige with all you can eat at the burger van end.
It was never made official but apparently the clubs voted (including Salford) to grant exemptions for quota players for a year. The reason it never happened was Salford simply refused to sell anyone. If any exemptions were voided when they lifted the restrictions for a week is anyone’s guess. If Salford say they need to sell a couple of high earning players to balance the books I’d imagine they’ll allow exemptions.
