Well done Cougars

What was he doing outside your house, Stealth???
He always looks very official, in his blazer and tie.
I bought you a pint after the game Mick, but you must've left. I had to drink it myself.

A tense game with mistakes from both sides, the difference in the end was our desire and teamwork.

Once again another very good last ditch, try saving tackle from Hutch. Good to see Jermaine back, but he does not look fully fit. Sorry to hear that Scott Law has slipped a disc - although we need a fully fit pack back together, the lads on the field all did themselves proud.

I'm not sure what Neil's up to, he must realise that he is rubbing salt into old wounds. But one thing you have to say about the bloke is he made the effort to travel all that way to support the lads in a critical game. As far as I know, he has nothing to do with the club anymore, the RFL would be on us like a ton of bricks if he had.

This is a very big step up the staying up ladder.
Well played to all who were involved.
Well done Barry.

As for our former chairman. Why shouldn't he be there, after all he is a fan, we all know that.

I think its time people moved on. No one is going to stop him following the team.

Re: +1 : Mon May 10, 2010 7:51 am  

Great day out - great result - thought all the guys played well - for me I was impressed with Craig Moss playing at full back ,best game I've seen him play for Keighley , Sheldrake tackled well in the centre and yet another couple of huge hits from Hutchie

Much must be said of the reserves as well who were narrowly defeated by a much older and stronger Haven side 42-38 in the curtain raiser , the Cougar young uns only being pipped at the death after fighting back from a 26-6 deficit in the 1st half

Re: +1 : Mon May 10, 2010 9:21 am  

Were as reserves were losing 24-6 and what a comeback although in the end we just fell short.

On the 1st team game whilst Whitehaven were poor our players dominated so much that they had not much chance especially the 2nd half.

As for comment by GW re former chairman and folk moving on, why on earth should this be laid to rest the damage done is affecting the present and the future and I have no intention of rolling over and allowing the former chairman the notion folk think its all fogotten because it will not be until at least the end of the season.

If we fail to survive this season due to the points deduction alone then this will create even more anger.

Most folk who have let a club go into administration based on lies told to everyone that things were wel financially would have realised the game was up, but then when the rfl confirm he is UNFIT to have any involvement in the club based on various criteria I would have thought that would make him think its time to go.

Yes I accept that now he is not an official of the club and should act accordingly and pay admittance at away games like all other fans.

The club have to ensure he is not using directors passes etc as this could bring about the end of the club as part of the deal allowing cougars 2010 into league dictates this. may sound dramatic but its a real risk.

Re: +1 : Mon May 10, 2010 11:24 am  

Just as a matter of interest who from the board was there?

Re: +1 : Mon May 10, 2010 12:24 pm  

I'm not going to question his loyalty as a fan, if he comes to games fair play to him.

But it many things that he does that annoy me.

At home games his car is always parked as close to the gates as possible, it's as if he wants to remind us all he still here. I mean FFS he gets in for nowt but won't pay a quid to leave in the club car park.

He struts around as if he still owns the place.

He's never apologised for what happened or for lying to us.

Re: +1 : Mon May 10, 2010 4:00 pm  

As far as i know, he represent us at RFL meetings?

If this is the case, then he is still involved with the club way above that of a ordinary fan.

One other thing. If the past board had paid the bills they owed, then i doubt very much we would have won promotion.
The funding would have gone to do that, rather than play lots of money for players.

Even you have said in the past its time to move on. You can read what you said here, yours is the 4th post. Why is it OK for you for you to say, its time to move on, but other people cant say it?
