I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right!

Also, does the ground and buildings, say the desks, alcohol etc not count as assests which in reality are owned by 2001 and so become the property of the tax man and any other debtors?
Amazing how in rugby you can keep going bust but just carry on.
Personally I think last year was a great year and the directors gave us what we had been asking for. It is them paying the price right now as they no longer have any significant role in a club they helped build. We on the other hand still have the club and team, albeit perhaps straight back into C1 next year.'"
I don't like anyone being screwed (even the taxman), it only comes back to haunt you, and ruins goodwill.
The directors might have given us what we wanted but they lied about the financial position, and unless something unforseen caused it, like a(some) sponsor(s) not paying up, that is not acceptable.
I hope we find out just what happened, but I doubt it.
Does anyone know the new board?
Have they the potential to be a good board?
Just being a "fan" does not mean you will make a good director!
However, I wish them success. |

I think Graham Kemp has been sponsoring Albion and possibly the Cubs (I will stand corrected if wrong) and I think he's keen on developing the kids side of things.
Somebody may know a bit than me though. |

I'm with you on this.
One of the first things I like them to do is to turn on the charm offensive with the fans.
A huge amount of damage has been done in the relationship between fans and the club, it needs repairing. |

The thing is, its the fans who once again will be expected to turn up.
We will once again be expected to help keep the [inew[/i club going.
As you say a huge amount of damage has been done (once again).
If you were a local company, would you want anything to do with the Cougars now? |

No I wouldn't to be honest.
The new board have a pretty unenviable task to be honest.
I think they need to be really open and honest about the state of the club in future what their aims are, and their budgets relative to turnover.
We could call it Cougar Glasnost. |

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.

All power to him, if thats the case. A good rugby club should have good links with the kids. |

It would appear that some trust was being built up between the club, fans and local company's.
I fear once again thats all gone.
Will the club be able to built it back up again?
I feel as if the fans, have been taken for a load of mugs.
I for one am sick of it.

Yep and then we'll get taken over by a fat alcoholic who'll pay the players in Stolichnaya.
We'll get hammered every game, and in more ways than one

Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the axe.

I wonder if Spencer and Farrer have been shafted by Fawcett since he joined cougars mid last year in the same way it would appear Fawcett has shafted the schools.
