Great that club has done the pay in advance reduced price offer. A big Cougar crowd would be great and deserved - hope the team can keep our winning run going. Need to go at it from minute one this time to avoid last year's failure v the Crusaders. looking forward to seeing refurbished turnstiles etc Sounds like the volunteers are doing a fantastic job. Come on Keighley!!

This ^^^^^. This is what did for Thunder last Sunday and it was Crusaders' blistering start that did for us last season. We need to blitz them from the first kick-off and show them what we can do - what they didn't see last season.
.
To add to the Cougar crowd, I've tempted my uncle to come along. He was the first person who ever took me down Lawkholme back in the late 70s but I bet he hasn't seen a game for 30 years. Hoping to get him re-hooked!
.
Looking forward to seeing the excellent work done on the turnstiles too. COME ON COUGARS!






We are from Keighley. We are NOT Bradfordians.

I reckon Keighley 28-10 Crusaders. Gotta keep focused and we'll come out on top. C'mon Cougars!!

We can't underestimate North Wales (like we did last year).

If we show the right attitude and stay switched on for 80 mins, then there is no reason why we can't win.






I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right!

Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.

I could not agree more! .............. we must not make the same mistake as we made last season, absolutely dreadful mistake that basically put us where we are now, at the time I would have sacked March on the spot! Putting that aside, the start to the league campaign has been pretty good, I was very worried about both the York and Thunder matches but we did well, although we should have done better in the cup matches. Wasn't one of the objectives to win the cup (I've forgotten what its name is :oops: !).






Is a dream a lie if it don't come true. Or is it something worse?

A very big pat on the back for all concerned ... well done guys!

I have to say, I was very, very worried with the number of SL players turning out for Crusaders, it's good to see that we can handle that ........ could turnout to be a good season!

Well done to the team!

Couldn't make it today ( or next week) but got updates. Must say it looked grim at one point but it must have been a good second half and finish.

Still need to stay focused as we may now be re established as favourites and are there to be shot at.

I never factored in Kevin Penny in my considerations. Great win. What a finish, well done Danny Jones. Well done team, a lot of good performances.

Firstly a win is a win no matter what is most important thing for any team - well done cougars

But apart from the last 15 mins the game as a whole considering the rosters on both sides was pretty a poor one lots of errors, niggling at the play the ball and penalties again im on about the game in general not just Keighley.

Quick on the dual reg thing I hate it - but for me I did feel Crusaders best player was Wheeler when he was on - he had pretty much a free reign and was a real reason why they had the better 1st half - im pretty sure he went off for a nock. Penny had a great game and overall from start to finish had a good game (we peppered him lots with little joy) he did look very fit and used to playing at a higher level - The other 2 DR players did not stand out at all for me.

Crusaders in general should have punished us more than they did especialy in that first stanza - lost count of the drop outs we did - Just lacked that killer punch at times - If they had of had another try and the gap was 3 scores or more at the break im sure they would have won it easy


For us by far Tiger was the MOM. The start was excellent until we scored - I don't know what it was but getting that first try was probably not a good thing we seemed to switch straight off and only pick back up Again in that final 15. Overall as a team I felt we were poor and it was a good job the margin was low when we started playing better as a team. Ok im not going to knock DJ too much as he did excellently at the end with that drop goal under that pressure, but he in general was poor his final pass was poor mostly ball hitting the ground etc and he missed more tackles than anyone else. Upfront we kind of cancel each other out at times Scott Law and Rollo especially put in hard graft and Lindsay was decent too but I felt we just lacked that shickle' esc player at times to really get that edge upfront. And for me every second time you saw one of the March's it was when they were chirping at the ref.

Negative on a win yes, but I did feel That cougar team should have done much better today that's all -

Spin it positively to get that win against what on paper was a good team inc 4 SL players and play as poor as that just shows with the improvement that can be made that the season can be a good one and I do firmly feel if Keighley play to the best of their ability even more so after seeing that game today no team in that league will match them. Looking at the players reaction after the DJ DG and the embracement of the crowd shows great positives. I think they will improve next week and smash London to pieces

c'mon you cougars and a decent crowd too
