<-------- Wonders why there is so much ' Jekyll and Hyde ' within the
team , only getteng half a game from them is not good and it ponders the question
of Wjat else is going on that we all know nothing about ....

Yet again we have the ' can't put my finger on it ' comment when discussing players with a
lack of desire and the second half meltdown we are seeing time and time again.....
Maybe lack of leadership on the field ,
maybe lack of discipline on the field from yourself Marchy ..... Too many spats with the ref,
lead by example.
Maybe changing tactics through out the game instead of other teams sussing out ours after the
first ten minutes,
Maybe the stupid and silly mistakes that are repeating themselves week after week.....
Danny Jones kicking the ball dead from the kick off for instance ,

Relegation this season means two years minimum in the league of doom ,
Super League 2 is there for the taking but not from Ch 1.....

Things need to happen NOW to avoid Relegation.

Things could be better it would appear. But, it is clear everybody at Keighley Cougars is doing all they are capable of to achieve the aim of winning every match the team plays. That being the case, supporters need to stick together and support. Unless and until a group of half a dozen people with say £50k each to put into the Cougars comes along as a new board in waiting and publicly offers to buy the club from Mr Fawcett there's no point in airing such negativity.

The point being it is my opinion , therefore There is a point in airing it. As much point as anyone
airing their own opinio......this being a forum .

It's a shame there has been so much apathy surrounding this topic , only a few can see the
total mess the club will be in if Relegation happens ,with many just ignoring the subject with
hope that it goes away.

If my posts contain too much negativity / realism Mr Churchill then please by all means
Ignore them.

I wonder which category you would put Shaun Wane in? Talking of Wigan, I wonder if you think the club should try to get Bobbie Goulding in as part-time Head Coach with Paul March becoming his p-t assistant player/coach?

Goulding's infectious enthusiasm could only be a plus. As well as the fact he came through the Wigan system and played at the top/international level for years. He proved himsef as a club coach and has recent international coaching experience with France. He would be aware of quality players who might be suitable to bring in on loan.

I think this development woud help the squad avoid relegation this year and he would be the right man to take the team forward towards the oppoportunities the impending re-introduction of promotion and relegation will bring.

I used to love watching Bobby goulding play but it's no secret that his ability to press the self distruct button has lost him jobs as both player and coach. However, he is a loveable rogue.

He has been away from superleague for long enough to make his tactical knowledge less relevant and I have no idea how he is as a man manager. There is no doubt though, that he is enthusiastic and a "big name".

He appeared to do a good job at Rochdale but if I remember, left because he was frustrated by the clubs financial position. Hmmm....

To answer your point, Wane IMO is an activist but has plenty of others around him to provide analytical theories and tactics helping him formulate the game plan. Unfortunately, we are not blessed with such resources. Goulding's an interesting option but would he be attracted to the Cougars? From what I've heard anywhere Golding goes David Ferriol would follow?

Some great ideas being banded about but I don't think the board have any intention of changing anything .....hope I am wrong.

Marchy is a talented coach with a good pedigree (look at the success he had at Hunslet and York). Given the closeness of the bottom 9 places this league will be decided in the 2nd half of the season, not the first half. The best step forward our club can make is an emphatic win tomorrow night.

Credit where it is due , well done with the signing of Elliot Cosgrove ,
A HUGE step in the right direction .
