Well find someone who's willing to come in, take over, spend a fortune and has Salford RLFC's best interests at heart. Because JW and the rest of the board have been looking for years.
What happened to the nugget suggesting Fred Done was coming in to invest? That's all gone a bit quiet.

2) What if these 'good players' just didn't want to play for Salford?
Jesus, how often do people have to repeat themselves on here before a modicum of sense takes hold?!
They would if they get good offers, and u cant blame the salary cap because club like Wakefield have bought players like solamona and castleford buying players like Sherwin and Huddersfield buying Brett hodgson all quality players and them clubs all them get the same crowds we have had in the past, we haven’t sign one ex international since coming up in 2004

Simms should go as well, since he has been hear we haven’t sign one top players and the only he sign Dunneman because he offered him 1 year and I heard rumours when he left was Dunneman want more money and Salford didn’t offer him what he wanted.
and he sign Quailty players like smith haha and swain.

Without John Wilkinson we would not have made Superleague at all, let alone the last franchise application.
We all owe him a huge debt of gratitude.
I think he has said he wants to hand it on to a person who can give it a good future.
There are no takers !!
The problem is that ,because of what he has done, supporters have turned him into some kind of 'God like' figure who can do no wrong and,having built him up are now ready to hammer him with criticism.
He is not perfect and has made loads of mistakes ,as we all would.
I never bought into the new stadium dream totally, and thought it would end in tears and I really hope that I turn out to be wrong.
The bottom line is that there is no point in slagging JW off.He has gone for the dream and,even if it doesn't work out ,we have been far better off with him than we would have been without him.
