Can I just add a few words.? First I note that the points I made about what Neil has done for Cougars is not challenged and I am pleased about that because they are irrefutable facts. Secondly, I don't know where the information that Cougars owed hundreds of thousands of pounds came from as I understood it to be considerably less than £100k owed to the tax man. If I am wrong then you must have a direct line into Cougar finances...
Regarding the RFL; the post of Life President is an honorary role and he or she is not involved in the running of the club. Neil has, with others, tried to make Cougars successful. I believe it is better to attempt something, no matter how difficult it may be, than to not take up the challenge.If everyone just stood by Cougars would have been gone years ago.
I might also add that over the years many players have enjoyed life as part of the extended family of Neil and Maureen, at no cost to the club, and they keep in touch because of their warm memories.
Finally, Neil has gained nothing personally during 26 years of supporting Cougars except a quadruple bypass amongst the highs and lows. Disagree if you must but please don't knock a man for trying.
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.
