Hi all, this is my first post on here even though I have been coming on for sometime now. This post might upset some people but for those of you who have been with the club through thick and thin like myself since the late 60's I feel it is now time to share what I have found out about our so called genuine, trustworthy and honest chairman.

This has taken me a long time dig out but the reason the alarm bells have started to go off is the club does not seem to be grabbing oportunities with both hands. I have also tried to purchase merchandise which is a challenge and half, why would you buy something blind. I prefer to check the quality of what I am buying because if the clothing is anything to go from previous years then I'll be staying clear.

I also had hastle with my season ticket with staff once again coming and going, in my opinion apart from the team stuff with Jason everything else down there is just and always will be playing catch up. If you go down to the ground during the week and just like any other club where you should be able to walk in off the streets to find something out or purchase something, well lets just say there is more staff in Ghost Town. How the club is running I just don't know.

We can never turn the clock back to the cougar mania era and I am sad to say that I don't think we will have acheive that sort of success again that we had with Mick O'neil and Mike Smith.

Below is all the links that I have found on our Chairman, this is not easy reading and if you have a weak heart don't look because this is a real worry and not something in my eyes that can be pushed aside. This man is not fit to run a local team never mind a club like the Cougars. I have also found that this guy was involved with the Bulls and Halifax.

Once agian sorry for the downer but the RFL will hopefully see this and investigate, how can he bee allowed to continue.

The 2 links above show Mr Fawcett join the club with Neil and Colin, I believe the role of gary to be the Finance guy. With in a matter of months the club goes into administration, everyone has to stand down, leave, etc but Mr Fawcett becomes the Chairman. I smell a rat!!!!

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.

Rahel,

It was not aimed at any person.

Just highlighting the obvious, that somebody has an axe to grind and people
will wonder why.

People are entitled to opinions.
And mine is that people will be wondering who is grinding this axe and why.
The above is one of a number of possible reasons.

Boxweir,
I find it ridiculous that you thought this was aimed at you. (Certainly was not)

Of course it was not.

As I said above it was not aimed at any person.

Time to lock this thread.

People are using this site to grind a axe.

By saying things like, [iI have to be very careful what I say on here[/i proves my point.

If there is a legitimate problem, then take it down the correct channels.
