Can mean something not pleasant but to me 2 words that the Cougars need to study, understand and apply.

Without those the season has already gone.

Very disappointed after todays showing.
Swinton must have the smallest pack i have ever seen at Cougar park.
Yet they held there own against ours.

Having been quite annoyed today all we needed was non supporting leaguefan giving his pish!

Lawton again was shocking needs dropping. 2/3 missed tackles leading to tries at Barrow and same today. March has a big 3 weeks to get the team ready for York.

You cannot blame todays shambles on one player. We all know what needs to happen and the club can't afford to implement it. i.e. THE COACH

I'd like to think he'd have some integrity
and go.Why not give Buster a go, nothing
to lose and could be affordable option.

I fail to see why it is unaffordable to get rid. Firstly every organisation has a mechanism,and the right, to remove employees who are incompetant at their job.Secondly he is a part time coach and I doubt that he is being paid that much so if it were necessary to negotiate a severance deal it not be expensive. There would also some associated cost savings with his departure in that I would hope that his chums would toddle off back where the came from once a new coach who understood what Keighley Cougars is about took over.

It can be quite expensive when you just don't quite get there, clearly a "long way" is not quite far enough Mr. March.

I look forward to reading that you now have no 'cup' distractions and can now focus on the league and promotion - it's not like Keigley needed the gate money or anything like that...!

"going a long way to make sure it doesn't happen again", the moon would be about the right distance for him.

Can't really comment much on todays game as was in
too much pain to attend ,
The one thing I will add though is that I am glad that
more people are seeing the situation for what
it really is .

Taxi for March.

It's true BurleyCougar that if you throw enough 5h1t a little may stick, however I am not agreeing with you and doubt I ever can be considered an ally - I am merely sick to death of the stench emanating from Lawkholme Lane.

That's fair enough 104-4 , I understand what you are saying ,
Not here for friends or allies , just concern for the cougars ,
Like most other people on here , just commenting that it is good that
people are now waking up to what is actually going on at the club.

I was brought up to speak my mind , it never wins popularity contests
but at the end of the day we are all here through our love of the Cougars and the
game in general...... your parting comment on your last post sums it up just right.

So defence and discipline are not important! the rest of the season

Hmmm, DD reminds me of something rather nice D[/sizeetermination
[sizeD[/sizeesire and
[sizeD[/sizeirection,
which is what Swinton appeared to have plenty of.

You could also addD[/sizeismayed
[sizeD[/sizeisappointed and
[sizeD[/sizeisillusioned,
which is what many Cougar fans will be right now.

There can be no bones about the fact that this cup was one of our objectives and this, coupled with the performances so far, is just not good enough.

"We'll get better next week, only works for so long. Cudda, shudda, wudda.

We failed to break them down despite all the back to back sets we had on their line, we tackle each other to give them a free run to the line, then commit suicide by giving a penalty right in front of our own posts.

We distribute the ball too slow, catch the ball standing still and don't run decent lines and we sure as hell miss the go forward of Schick.

Barring all that, it was actually a very exiting game that we could and should have won.

As nice a touch as it was by the club to hand out bunches of daffs to the ladies, if you don't start winning you're going to be in the poop.

Personally, I have a season ticket and will come and watch no matter what, but there are many that will find something more rewarding to do with their time and money.

Time to "put up" or "shut up" I'm afraid.

One final thing, personal insults to players are pathetic and those doing it whether at the match or on wasteofspacebook should take a good look in the mirror.

I don't like loosing, I don't like our current form or tactics either, but it's now that they need our support more than ever.

Oldham "bouncing" Barrow at Barrow shows this league will be anything but easy.

I like to look on the bright side but I'm afraid we'll be lucky to finish in the top 4 if the current form continues.

I still believe we can turn this around but that will take a marked change in mental and physical attitude.

I am an advocate of offering opportunities to individuals to demonstrate their abilities - and whilst Mr. March has been given significant opportunities, perhaps it is now time for him to try something new - clearly his abilities as a Head Coach are not up to standard.

May I also remind The Board that this is also the Third Division and at this early stage, we arnt managing to compete at this level.
