Hi I'm the guy who wrote the original letter so let me first say that I too am very appreciative of everyone who works on behalf of Cougars whether in a paid capacity or not so you won't hear me knocking them. Let me also say that I wish the current Directors every success as that will also mean success for Cougars; it may also stop them being vilified by ill-informed people in the way that Neil Spencer has been should their stated intention of Super- league in 5(?) years not be achieved.
I totally support the right of any supporter to express a view, I accept that they may,or may not, agree with me but can we please get the facts right.
Talk of burning photographs in the middle of the pitch because of "what he has done"? Come off it!
Lets get the facts first.
Neil Spencer has devoted literally thousands of unpaid hours, over a period of 26 years to Cougars. He has invested tens of thousands of pounds of his own hard earned cash to Cougars. He has been, and remains, a lifelong supporter of Cougars and is still working for Cougars and the Keighley community in his role with the Academy/Foundation.
Cut him open and it will read Cougars all the way through from top to bottom.
Neil Spencer has stuck by Cougars through thick and thin when others have walked away. He deserves rather better than people sniping from the shadows anonymously.
Ok, there are reasons for and against for Spencer, however, there have been a great selection of other people named in this thread who have given to this club, continue to give to this club and have NEVER taken from this club and NEVER been associated with or directly put this club in major jeopardy and therefore MUST be head and shoulders above Spencer in the run for this position
As we can all see. There are people for Neil and people against Neil.
There is no doubting Neil has done a lot for the club. He has also done things to alienate fans.
I would not vote for Neil, for the way the two groups of people wanting to help raise funds for the club. In the form of the independent associations were treated.
