Barry has shown his commitment to the club with the extended contract he signed. Also how can anyone say we have not got better year on year under Barry beggars belief.

In addition to this Barry has done all this on a shoestring budget wheras the likes of Olham have had lots of money put into them and they have not got better. That is the sign of a very good coach.

Barry should not go, end of discussion in my opinion. Since Peter and Barry came in after Gary Moorby all the club has done is improve. (Off the field as well may I add thanks to Helen). Even in the first year when Peter was in charge I know first hand that Barry was doing the majority of the coaching on set plays, defensive sets etc. Barry's continued input every season has seen the team improve. Yes, I also feel that some of the current team are poor and would struggle if we went up a division but in that respect are we different to any of the other teams chasing playoff promotion.
As Guess Who said, it has been like two leagues within a league this season. For what its worth from what I have seen and read, I honestly beleive we are the second best team. If we go up, yes I am sure we will struggle, to think we wouldn't would be unrealistic in my opinion. Yes we may be in a better position next year but the likelihood is that unless we do what Dewsbury have done this year and end up coming up after a competitive season people will still moan. Is Barry a good enough coach? Are our players good enough? We will never know until we have been there and seen what he can do.
We all know what it was like last time we got promoted, though I honestly feel we have more stability on and off the pitch. Gary Moorby had a nightmare season in charge, maybe Barry can do better with this current squad. Lets stick with Barry get behind him and back the boys to the hilt no matter where they are next year.

Ill shup up now!

Money does NOT equal good/bad coach nor good/bad player!!!

Ability to get the message over, understood and applied is the sign of a good coach/trainer/educator in any walk of life.

Wanting to absorb, understand, apply and improve is the sign of a good player/employee/employer in any walk of life.

Get the two together and you have a very good chance of success.

It's down to people themselves to decide where they fit into the scenarios and to what level they achieve or can achieve. (Not everyone can run 100 metres in less than 10 seconds then again not everyone can catch a ball)

It's how you deal with what you have that is the key and it applies to both trainer/trainee.

I can see obvious faults (to me) in the Keighley team but I can also see some good stuff and some great potential stuff. Between coach and player these are the challenges to get the best out of each other.
