Great gesture by John Kidd. Most Swinton fans were not happy he did it. Hopefully things work out for Swinton and now our owner has saved them, they might be able to put to bed all the years of moaning about Wilky etc.

Let's just remember Koukash hasn't saved them yet and will only do so if the Council agree to support his idea/vision for the development in Swinton.



Great response so far, well done guys.

Does anyone know what the likelihood of the council signing up to this proposal is?

I would imagine it's to early to say, we're talking about quite a substancial development. I would imagine the Council will be cautious to be seen to be 'wasting' further public money on the City's sports team, but I can't them refusing to assist Koukash and his team in developing the proposed land. The mayor is quite friendly with Marwan and he will have a huge say in all this.

What's the current position in respect of the land? Who owns it? What is the plan for re developing it? I imagine the Dr No of the council Karen Garrido will have some objections.

I believe it's the old St Ambrose Barlow playing fields, which the Council own. I'm sure Garrido will have her say, but ultimately it will come down to the mayor. Hopefully all goes to plan as it's just the type of development and regeneration Swinton needs to coincide with the new Gateway, Asda etc.

Done. Really wish Swinton all the best in their fight for survival.

Hope all works out for them like it has for us.

Think back to one year tonight!!

Great Club Great History

Done. Being a Salford fan living in Swinton in the Kenny Gowers era, all of my mates were Swinton fans and I regularly went with them to Station Rd. Swinton is a traditional Rugby League town and Swinton should be based in Swinton. Good luck!
