Mate. You're upset, we all are, but if you're going to post on a message board like this you need to get the occasional fact in. You're talking complete sh*te.
Quote: Red Joldsworth "Lets not pretend and kid ourselves, Mr Wilko is a businessman first and foemost of course he has taken out of the club. And if thats true about the 2.35 million for the willows then its a disgrace that we are only operating with the team we have now. Simple business sense and the facts dont lie
TOP CLASS TEAM
If you think that John Wilkinson has "taken out" of the club you must be in cloud cuckoo land.
The club is owned by John Wilkinson and in the event of us moving to a new stadium the ground sale is part of the deal, how do you think that the chairman is to continually keep putting money into the club?
The Willows site is earmarked for housing connected with the new developments at Salford Royal Hospital and this has been common knowledge for a long period of time and it was mentioned at the Government Enquiry.
John Wilkinson, Howard Clague and other directors have provided more than enough finance over many years and to have people coming up with inaccurate and downright stupid comments is not on.
The players(some of them)have never repaid the faith and money that the club(The chairman & directors) have put into them and unfortunately we now have some spectators having cheap shots at the people who have kept the club going for 27years.
The club(Chairman & directors) spent a large amount of money on the Jacksonville trip and what do they get? a load of aggravation due to the childishness of certain players for which the club are castigated whereas it is some of the people who are being paid(the players) who should be copping the flack.
The fan base at Salford is not good enough as we all know and the performances up to now will not improve the situation and I feel sorry for the people who's job it is to sell the club to sponsors etc.
If the chairman, vice chairman or the other directors view the Scarlet Turkey lets hope they take no notice of the silly inaccurate posts and they and their families continue to support the club.
They probably put more money into the club in a day than fans including myself put in during our lifetime.
I'm sure some of the comments made on here would cut deep with board members if they read them. If anything, money has been lost through involvement with the club. I think you accept that if you are joining the board of a sports club, your motivation is not to make money. You know that you will not make money in fact.
Any remuneration from the sale of the Willows is certainly eaten up by the new stadium costs (and then some)
Sometimes some of the comments made on here are so way off the mark its unbelievable, laughable in fact.
"TOP CLASS TEAM=MORE SUPPORT=MORE INCOME MERCHANDISE ETC "
Red Joldsworth, perhaps you should contact the club directly and offer your services as a Business Guru and present your pearls of wisdom to the board. It seems like winning idea that.
