Mr Fawcetts true colours are creeping through and will continue to do so that i am 100% sure, can anyone recall any publicity seen like this by any other championship club or even a super league club because i can't and these other clubs for the past years have had many a big game. In my opinion to boast the club is going to be minted is totally stupid and even if that wasn't mr Fawcetts words he still managed to boast the game would make around £60,000 and once shared if anywhere near that figure the club looks to bank around £30,000 which is huge for the club.

I just wonder how much of that will go on the club and not back in a certain directors pockets, i don't know about anyone else but i am sick of hearing him speak about the cost of bringing these players to the club as he has done again on the website trying to explain his pricing for the warrington game. It has been made clear from the start that the with thanks to the community team and sporting chance we have managed to bring these players to the club and if im right in saying both these organisations have nothing to do with the directors of the club. Without these players such as korki, obst, tom and brendan having jobs with these organisations the club would not have been able to bring these players in and as it has been pointed out on the site without jd i am sure players like semi, korki, obst, march and maybe a few others would not have put on a cougar shirt.

I agree jd is the best thing that has happened to the club in years and he is going to be a very successful coach one day in super league i am sure but what worries me is the end of the season, jd has come to the club and got us promoted in his first season then if we manage to finish high up in the playoffs this season plus get far in the nrc can we really see him been at the club next season. yes some might say its premature worrying about this now but the season will soon have come and gone. it is obviously going to cost us more in keeping him next season because of the success he has had with us and im sure other clubs will want him especially as he has proven the links and contacts he carries.

one last moan which is an obvious one before anyone decides to spend £20.00 on a ticket for the stand on the warrington game, on the website our chairman has clearly stated that anyone who chooses to pay £20.00 and go in the stand for this game will also be entitled to use the vip bar and could get a chance to rub shoulders with the stars as this is a players bar. Now correct me if im wrong the vip can surely only get 50-70 people in there and that would be very tight, so you have the main stand that will seat im guessing around 400-600 people and don't forget in with the £20.00 you get the vip bar. ITS NOT ROCKET SCIENCE

The Keighley Cougars is a Rugby league team AND a business , It has to make money to survive , Fact.
The prices for the Warrington game may seem high but when you think about it the Keighley Cougars Have to make as much money as possible from this game , If it is putting the club in a better financial position then so be it.
It is a one off price for a very special game and at the end of the day either pay it or don't , no-one is being forced to attend. Personally I think the prices are reasonable for the calibre of the players we will see playing that day.

Most important of all though....... stop bl**dy moaning and get yersens down for the most important game for a long while !!!

COUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGARS

my previous post was a little moan but i was just clearly helping fans that are thinking of buying tickets for the stand, which nobody has mentioned. all i am saying is how can you sell something you can't deliver on, its ok saying this guy is trying to promote the club, he is doing all this good work for NOTHING and he is trying to come up with good ideas.

now surely if you have a vip bar that only holds im guessing 70ish people and a stand that holds 400-600 folk then how can you promise these people a ticket that includes the vip bar. after what seems another great idea by the club is just going to be another f and one that could potentional cause an horrific accident when fans are trying to get into a bar that is packed and not forgetting the small staircase to it.

we will only have a bad name after the game as i am sure away fans and even our fans will feel ripped off once again when they can't get to the vip bar and as the chairman states rub shoulders with the stars.

this cant do us any good

By eck, Old Boy, your glass really is half empty isn't it! One of the finest RL teams in the world is coming to Cougar Park in less than two weeks' time and it's all doom and gloom. It's going to be a great day! As regards pricing, with the exception perhaps of having to pay £20 to get a child into the stand, I think it's a bargain. £15 to get into the ground when a normal league game is £14; what's to moan about? An extra £1? I'll be there 'with bells on', nowt's going to keep me away. I'm convinced the Warrington fans will go back to Lancashire (yes, Lancashire is their proper county not Cheshire!) with a great impression of our club, just like they did last time they were over and got a right game!

Can I suggest everyone takes a look at old boy cougar other posts,its seems to be clear to me and several other people on this forum he has a LARGE axe to grind with Gary Fawcett,maybe he may want to come clean and tell us all exactly what his problem is or even better try having a word with Gary Fawcett face to face on how best to run the club you seem to know how you think it should be run,but hey old boy cougar your just an ordinary fan like the rest of us,are'nt you ??????

EDIT....
