They want some short term success to get fans back in the stadium. That team will be a playoff team but not challenge would be my guess. Hopefully he is spending equally on building the under 19's squad as well.
Exactly. Some of those signings (Morley, Meli) are one year deals. The club has already started looking at recruitment for 2015/16 (and I've been given one name for 2015 who is, apparently, signed on and is, if true, a 'kin brilliant signing - but I'm not sharing and you won't guess). The young players who have come through this year have been of a higher standard than we've had at Salford for many a year, and will, hopefully, be the mainstay of the squad for years to come. It's all part of a long term process. Marwan said today that he wants the club to be where all young players in the area aspire to play.
