Hi All, I have had discussions with the directors in relation to the issues raised. The directors are have been working extremely hard over the last year and a half to get the club back in the positive since the administration and have made massive strides in doing so. The accounts have been completed and are being submitted as we speak. The Directors are in regular contact with inland revenue and companies house and everything is in satisfactory state, so need for panic. As I have said, I will not jeopardise the club financially with player recruitment and we have managed to put together a very good squad in line with the Salary cap. After a meeting with the RFL yesterday everything was passed through and we given a pat on the back for the work the directors especially, are doing to make Keighley Cougars a viable business. Obviously we want to hit our targets of at least 600 season tickets as this would generate excellent revenue but also create the rebirth of Cougar mania. The idea of the season ticket price structure is to structure it to the clubs affordability while offering value for money to our supporters and the deal is simple, the more we sell the cheaper they are. I believe we will have a big surge and hit our target of 600 which will give the supporters great value at £80 a season ticket. Lets have a big push on this and collectively we will all benefit from this scheme. I know some people have had trouble getting through at times but we now have Wendy volunteering her services to answer phones and sell the season ticket to which she is doing a fantastic job. If anyone can't get through leave your name and number and your request and Wendy will get back to you as soon as she can. In an ideal world we would have a receptionist but they cost money and we must all pitch in to get the job done. So basically the message is simple, this not a time for stressing and worrying, it is a time for optimism and excitment. Cougar mania is going to hit the championship in 2012 and I can't wait.
Cya soon JD
