It was nice to see a coach stand up in front of his own fans after a loss and take full responsibilty for his players actions and the loss. We have a coach who seeks to blame everything and everyone except himself for our performances. Always found Barry Eaton very approachable, talks a lot of sense and has done a marvellous job with you guys this season. It was not his fault you started at minus nine but he has done his best to try and save the day for you. Always enjoy the visit to Cougar Park look forward to seeing you again next season.

Quote: andysilsden ", . If the 2nd team have a chance of some silverware, then I wouldnt expect that to be jepardised for the 1st team. Why should it?.

Barry cant be faulted for what he has done with cougars over the last 5 years.'"


So what you are saying is we didnt play our stongest squad!
As a paying supporter i expect to see the better players on the pitch,wouldnt you say?
As for Barry,i agree but this was a game where the young guns should have played so the fans can see what to expect next season.

If we play a weakend team next week we will get hammered,simple as

1st half today was as bad as it possibly can get.

we showed no passion or commitment and very little skill.
only one team wanted the win

we are not good enough to give teams 20+ points start.
perhaps barry should not have offered contracts for next year until the season was over.
DJs spark as gone out.
barry's personal performance wasn't any worse or better than the rest, although i do question his motivational influence on the team at the moment.

PRIDE IS WORTH PLAYING FOR

So, after supporting Keighely for over 50 years, why am I berated for stating the obvious?

Jermaine Wray was awarded the MOM after playing only half the game and our coach, whatever position he decided he was playing (mostly at cenre and disrupting the general game plan), played the full 80. Does anyone actually believe that, at his age, he is far fitter than any of the players on the pitch and can actually play the full 80?

Poor old 'Buster' he must be really knackered as must Jermaine (our International) - after all they're only fit to play half a game each throughout the season! Pity, when all of the supporters around me seem to think that they both should be on the field for the full game. Obviously our super-fit (?) coach seems to know better! After all, he only needs to miss tackles and shout - Oh! I forgot - and play away from the tackles (at centre) that lead to tries for the opposition.

When we're going to be relegated then why does he persist in playing himself instead of GIVING YOUTH A CHANCE? How can they ever gain experience?

That's my point!

Roll-on (sorry about the forthcoming pun) Barry in his wheelchair when he still thinks that he's good enough to play for the first team at 50!

If we don't have any second team players that can slot into the first team then, God forbid, we might as well start supporting the 'Dulls'!!!!!!!!!!! (Only joking! - I'll die supporting Keighley but, hopefully, not on the treeaces).

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.

Why do you think you are berated, this is a discussion forum. You know - where people have different opinions, or do you think 50 years of support gives you special rights icon_wink.gif No one thinks less of you for your input, it would be a boring place if we all agreed.

Most people, including myself, feel that he should have hung his 1st team boots up last year and I can only assume he has his reasons for still playing.

As I have already said, I suggest you go into the bar after the match and ask the man himself, he is usually very approachable. Or do you fell better being an anonymous keyboard warrior icon_wink.gif
