    The five year plan

    There generally seems to be an air of pesimism surrounding the club at the moment. Losing our POY and lack of signings have fueled. But as Ron as said, this is a long process. If we say that in 2 years we will have a new stadium, so 2 more years at Roots Hall (I don't know how far the new...
