Sorry my bad it was the 2011 times rich list, and before you go googling it, every millionaire doesn't wish to have there personal business posted in public, so it probably won't be on googltube.

From what I know, and it all comes from followers of the turf, a person cannot have the large number of race horses he owns without the racing authorities checking his or her worth.

When he took over, many of us began to dig to find out where he came from. We found out very little but most reds I have talked to went along with the above argument.

I'd rather have the good doctor in RL than the owner of Cardiff or Hull City.

Well said, sir, well said. It's all about raising the club's profile. The last time Salford warranted multi-page topics on the VT (and 6 pages of hand-wringing and impotent rage on the Warrington forum), the internet was still paper-based. Obviously, it's working.



Despite what some on here would like to believe, we don't overestimate the strength of our squad, and know we're not going to be overnight successes. But if Marwan went to the press and said that, it would hardly get people flocking to the gates would it? "Roll up, roll up! Come and see us build slowly in a quiet, sustainable manner, just like Simon Moran supposedly did!" is hardly going to draw the crowds in.



As for his wealth, it was reported in one of the Aussie newspapers that he was worth some number of millions or billions of Aussie dollars (can't remember), but it was an amount that converted to somewhere in the region of £500 million. I doubt any of us know how true this is, but I guess it's the best estimate we have at the moment.

Didn't I see something online to the effect he was not happy with season ticket sales. How many have been sold as a matter of interest?



Is there a limit to the number of RL clubs / football clubs one person can "own"? He seems to own Salford, has interest in Swinton, wants / wanted to buy Oldham Athletic and the RL club, interested in Leeds United, etc - all according to reports on the internet. Are there more?

Reportedly 2500 season tickets sold so far. Given that the club was a complete basket case last season and is an unknown quantity this season, I'd say that was a pretty fair return, and will almost certainly be the greatest number of season tickets sold for many a year (the club used to keep the figure secret, possibly out of embarrassment). Whether he's genuinely disappointed or just trying to drum up a bit more publicity, we'll never know.



He does seem to be keen to build a sporting empire. The interest in Leeds United is a new one on me, and it seems the Oldham thing was just a passing thought. The Swinton deal looks more likely, and I think he has a meeting with the fans today.

"Many a year"



That's bad England you need to gone back to school

Marwan Koukash is not the only person capable of generating publicity - Phil Clarke has managed to initiate an 8-page discussion on here with just one preposterous statement. Maybe they're working together.

Quote Dally="Dally"Phil Clarke thinks so: www.skysports.com/opinion/story/ ... 31,00.html'" I suppose he must get something right sometime. Just don't think this is the time

I’d imagine for some people this would be worse than their neighbours winning the euro millions, you know the one’s they’ve always looked down their noses at.



Long odds on this happening but if it did it would be comedy gold!!

as is the stupid correction of a long used phrase

No way near 2500 I'm afraid. Your leader has recently stated Widnes, Bradford and Wakefield have all sold more than Salford. Wakey are currently on about 1900.
