Salford CEO Chris Irwin promises ‘good times’ for ailing Devils

Chief executive Chris Irwin insists cash-strapped Salford Red Devils will not enter administration and that “good times will come”, but says the club must rebuild trust in the rugby league world.

The beleaguered side, who are bottom of the Super League table after four defeats in four, were placed back under sustainability cap restrictions last week amid continued financial uncertainty following a proposed takeover.

Delays in funds being transferred by the investment group headed by Swiss banker Dario Berta led to February’s wages for players and staff being held up.

“It’s been a really tough four weeks but we are still fighting and are confident we will come out of this well,” Irwin told BBC Radio Manchester.

“In terms of the large funds that we are hoping will come over and really elevate the club and take the club on, we will be waiting for those funds a bit longer than we had hoped for.

“However, through March we will be fine. And come April we hope we can really kick on – on the pitch and off the pitch too.”
