He berates the fans but can't see that HE is the problem. Sounds like he's on the brink if he needs to sell 100+ cheap 2017 season tickets this week so he can pay the wages. Who knows, Fawcett is very secretive about the finances but there is obviously not enough in the pot to keep Hamish Barnes.

Do you know for a fact. Barnes left because of money?

It's known for a fact that a player that left recently regarded the level of contract he was offered by Fawcett as "an insult".

Well I don't know Mr C you are a difficult chap to please. After paying out on 'good' wages to to achieve promotion and failing (we're not the only ones) , re-grouping and a fresh start with realistic aims and budget with only those playing who want to rather than the ones who chase the money seems like good sense to me. Maybe you should find another team to support, or another sport. Another country?

I always wondered why the Financial Year was changed from May 31st to November 30th this year?

Does anyone know?

Perhaps it's time to let the club grow again, Craig will undoubtedly bring a fresh approach to a club that has to be positive move by the board.simple facts seem to be Cougars put all there money on black and it came up red. So in my opinion it's start again with players who can see beyond the money. And the club simply have to bring young hungry players to the club and build for the future, Cougars will always have there better younger players cherry picked by the so called bigger clubs but that's the nature of the beast case in point Jamel Goodall cast aside by Bradford because of a bad injury at 16 years old and on the verge of quitting the game, Cougars take a chance build his confidence and a contract a cas is his reward ,that's the reality of it. But if the club can put its faith in the youth system and bring local talent though I'm sure it will bring its own rewards. My thought would be give the new coach a chance don't expect miracles in the 1st season. Stay positive :D

I believe it's because the players current deals end on the 30th November.

Don't forget from 19:30 in the Executive Suite this evening, Q&A with Head Coach Craig Lingard & Gary Fawcett.






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