SALFORD RED DEVILS FANS FORUM AND AJ BELL STADIUM UPDATE

Following a widely viewed television news report yesterday evening, the Club felt the need to provide a clear update from the perspective of Salford Red Devils so that we are not further misrepresented, unfortunately we were not asked to provide a comment at the time.

We are currently actively engaged in positive discussions with all parties in the reported โ€˜stadium swapโ€™ agreement, and we continue to strive towards the best possible outcome for Salford Red Devils. Other parties in these discussions are COSCOS (Salford City Council and Peel Holdings), Sale Sharks and Salford City Football Club. We are open minded to facilitate all aspects of the ongoing dialogue as long as the best interests of the Club are also considered throughout the process.

As we understand it, there is still no finalised agreement for the purchase of the The Salford Stadium. Regarding our reported move to the Peninsula Stadium at Moor Lane, whilst we understand positive progress has been made between Salford City Football Club and Salford City Council, we are still yet to undertake any due diligence on the stadium.

The conversations continue to develop at pace, however the Club recognises the need to conduct a considered evaluation of any alternative options to our tenancy at the The Salford Stadium, which is still contracted until the end of 2023.

We will be hosting a fans forum on Thursday 4thย November to provide a further update on circumstances as they currently stand and anticipate that there may be further updates to provide by this date.

Full details of the fans forum will be released in the coming week and we look forward to seeing as many fans in attendance as possible regarding what is an important process and topic in the Club’s history.

Fans forum to be held regarding ownership of the The Salford Stadium

Following recent speculation on the ownership of the The Salford Stadium, the club will be hosting an event on Thursday 8 July to provide context, clarity and communicate the circumstances around the stadiumโ€™s ownership.

The event, which will be held in the 1873 Lounge and will commence at 7pm. will feature a presentation delivered by executive chairman Paul King and club staff, followed by the opportunity for fans to ask questions.

Due to the COVID-19 restrictions still in place, there will be a limited capacity available for the event therefore sponsors, squad builder members and season ticket holders will all be prioritised and access will be on a first come, first served basis.

Tickets are free and can be obtained online here. If you wish to be sat with a particular person, please book together, as you would for a matchday via networking. The event is strictly over 18โ€™s only. Due to restrictions on numbers, please only book a place at the event if you fully intend and are able to go. You will not be able to attend if you do not have a ticket.

Executive chairman Paul King said: โ€œIn recent months there has been growing speculation about the ownership of the The Salford Stadium, we have been relatively quiet on this matter whilst we took the time to fully understand the circumstances and realities of the situation.

โ€œFollowing regular meetings with Salford City Council, we believe that we now have a clearer understanding of the circumstances and want to communicate these openly, in person and with the chance for fans to ask questions.โ€

The event will be recorded and published at a later date for anyone who is unable to attend or get a ticket, and there will be live updates on our social media channels.
