Now is the time to stand up and be counted as we can not afford to go down.

End the stupid boycotts and get down to Cougar Park.

The team needs our support now. March will get it right IMO and we have to trust, Mon the Cougars.






Soon be Monday.

Honest question.

Do you think if all the fans shouted for the team non stop during a game, this team would win every game?

No but playing in front of only a few hundred and people booing does nothing for a team. Get behind them.
To be honest the only way you will ever get back large crowds would be to spend a lot of money bringing in high profile players and charging up the league winning week in week out. This coupled with the chance of a shot at Supper League would work but I just don't think the money is available down there so we just have to stick with what we have got.

The trouble with sticking with what you have got, could mean a long slow lingering death.

Good opening post.

A percentage of people have withdrawn there Support. Any business which looses a percentage of support will have problems.

Despite it being many weeks since a Cas player came on our pitch and even then it had been to cover for injuries many still stay away.

The same people come on here moaning about the Clubs on and off the field performance to which they have stopped contributing.

With a series a negative threads breading negativity in others and giving there predictions of doom.

Yet they still fail to come week in and week out but find time to blame blame moan moan, blame blame.

It is obvious this strange brand of being a supporter has not been constructive but destructive.

Question is are people going to get over themselves and return to watch the team they are criticizing or carry on moaning about the outside.

I know everybody is not happy with the Cas thing. I personally don't think it has effected the pleasure of watching the game.

I give the analogy of Supporters are split in 3 groups.

Some camped inside Cougar Park enjoying supporting the team.
Some who are inside this group at Cougar Park still watching the games
the pissing outwards from the proverbial tent.
And then there are some who have left the tent but are pissing into the tent from the outside.

These ones who either need to come back in or go mickey somewhere else.

this boycotting rubbish is very school playground! If I didnt like my boss would I boycott (go on strike) my job until hes replaced?
Ive stated in another thread about the game in itself its just not about coach. maybe we need to see things in different prospective. The club is doing what they can, in a lot of ways. Maybe some people who have a go and not seeing what they are doing, need to take a trip to specsavers.

There is a very big difference in your point.
At work people will put up with a lot as they have to get paid.
When people are spending there own money they can stop spending it at any time.

So any one who doesnt have your point of view should stop commenting on the club and go somewhere else.

Or have i misunderstood your point?
