Quote: Philyourboots "I think I've read somewhere lately that John Wilkinson has a 5 year plan to take us Reds to the next level ( Eddie Hemings also mentioned it in commentary today too).
So realistically speaking does he really want to sell up or does he solely want an investor just to throw money at his baby.....
A five year plan eh......Another whopping pork pie to blag the socks of the superleague franchise system.... Hilarious'"
Eddie actually referred to a 3 year plan in commentary. I, myself was staggered when I heard this, as I could not comprehend how even the brainpower and acumen we have at Salford could have shaved 2 years off, what will be a clearly a well thought out plan since yesterday. It was obvious to me early that the plan would have covered all possible angles, and have built in multiple contingences to cover things like imminent bankruptcy down to a granular level such as the milkman petioning the High Court in London for unpaid bills.
Upon further relection since the end of the game, I feel Eddie must be mistaken. Mr. Hemmings is usually such a well informed journalist too, but to believe Salford would be challenging for honors in 3 years seems foolhardy, 5 years is a far more credible and believeable figure.
