We love him at CP

A man with a lot of experience,welcome to Keighley (all is forgiven

Re: PAUL MARCH'S INTO COUGAR PARK : Thu Oct 13, 2011 4:19 pm  

Always Been a thorn in our side,I think this is a very clever move by JD, welcome to Cougar Park Paul.

Re: PAUL MARCH'S INTO COUGAR PARK : Thu Oct 13, 2011 4:22 pm  

So which half-back will be sinbinned or sent off for dissent first?

Paul March 1/2f
Danny Jones 6/4


Joking aside, I think it's a good signing. Paul was always one of those pantomime villains that you loved to hate but secretly wanted in your side.

Re: PAUL MARCH'S INTO COUGAR PARK : Thu Oct 13, 2011 5:18 pm  

Had to do a double take on the heading, would not have thought of Keighley Cougars and Paul March in the same dressing room unless a wall had fallen down.

You cannot doubt his commitment, but He's a penalty machine.

Can't say I'm really pleased about this but if he dons a Keighley shirt and plays with pride and a bit more discipline then I might be won over (but I hope they hide all the table cloths upstairs ).

Re: PAUL MARCH'S INTO COUGAR PARK : Thu Oct 13, 2011 6:06 pm  

I've just been for a lie down and a stiff drink and am now of the opinion that it will either end in tears or be an inspired signing - and I hope its the latter.

There is no doubting the blokes skill, passion and mental toughness, lets hope he can bring the young lads on.

We have lacked a bit of "mongrel" when the going gets tough, we just don't want him going OTT.

I remember when we signed Jermaine, I thought "oh no, not that little sh*t" but look how that turned out.

Does this mean that JD isn't playing next year?

Re: PAUL MARCH'S INTO COUGAR PARK : Thu Oct 13, 2011 7:09 pm  

Would appear so 'Dreamer'.

But signing an old chap with white hair isn't all that inspiring!

Let's hope he doesn't bring his Zimmer onto the pitch with him - or at least he could arrange for it to be fitted with a motor and wheels.

Being serious though and being completely fair, PM didn't appear as many times at Disciplinary Meetings as he did when he was at York:

Case No. Name Club Match Date
ON/631/11 Paul March Hunslet Featherstone v Hunslet 10/07/11
ON/433/11 Paul March Hunslet Toulouse v Hunslet 14/05/11
ON/590/10 Paul March Hunslet Hunslet v Workington 05/08/10
ON/353/09 Paul March York York v Dewsbury 31/05/09
ON/222/09 Paul March York Keighley v York 10/04/09
ON/144/09 Paul March York Dewsbury v York 22/03/09
ON/47/09 Paul March York York v Whitehaven 18/02/09
ON/630/08 Paul March York York v Rochdale 24/08/08
ON/541/08 Paul March York York v Oldham 03/08/08
ON/380/08 Paul March York Keighley v York 15/06/08
ON/170/08 Paul March York York v Gateshead 21/03/08

JD knows what he's capable of and so do we, if we look back to his time at Trinity, so let's hope that he is a reformed character.

Re: PAUL MARCH'S INTO COUGAR PARK : Thu Oct 13, 2011 7:59 pm  

Could also suggest that JD will be playing loose forward next season.

Yes, and I'm sure we aren't the only ones in his career to object to his sometimes questionable tactics and that includes some of York's own fans It's very interesting that his discipline improved considerably once he left York.

Mind you, I also remember some York fans screaming, wailing, gnashing that Daley Williams was the devil incarnate and throwing round insults in our club house in front of families. But I suppose that's OK.

If you're going to show your bottom in public it's better to clean it first.

Run along now, mummy is warming your milk.

Re: PAUL MARCH'S INTO COUGAR PARK : Fri Oct 14, 2011 9:46 am  

Will be interesting when we play hunslet as its first time for years they play on opposing sides

As someone said earlier we have lacked someone to rile the opposition and also push his own team mates to try even harder I am not a fan of his but now as a cougar he should be given same as other players.

Games will be interesting for sure and lets not forget jd brought him in so sees something to help team
