SALFORD could start the new Super League season still seeking clarity on their long-term future at their current ground.
But the Red Devils remain hopeful that progress will be made on a Salford Council buy-out of the Salford Community Stadium (pictured) in the first three months of next year - after opposition from some councillors slowed the process.
The Council currently own 50 percent of the venue, with a successful deal to purchase the other half from property group Peel Holdings, who want to sell, likely the key to a new long-term lease for the Rugby League club.
