There was a letter in paper today saying there is a vacancy at the cougars and that the writer encourages folk contact club to back Neil Spencer for the work and time he has put in over the years.

Does anyone know what the tole actually covers or os it as I am guessing is a figure head sort of thing.

Is this a new position as I do not recall hearing about it previously buy good luck to anyone that gets nominated and is eventually successful.

I couldn't care less what the role covers. He shouldn't be allowed anywhere near it.

This guy should never been given a life membership, his picture in the hall of fame should have been torn down and burnt in the middle of the pitch. It downright pi55es me off every time I see his face at Cougar Park.

Does whoever wrote this letter expect us to forgive all the bad things he did to our club and nominate him for such a title? Really?

I would like to think that our board of directors are of sound enough mind and judgement as to not even consider him for such an esteemed position. In my opinion it would be counter-productive to all their hard work and progress they have made in building bridges with the fans in the last 18 months or so to bring back the guy who almost destroyed our club.

Have to agree with points you raise, the letter was in Keighley News.

Not sure as Stealth said why the writer thinks that but the club went bust on a few occasions under his stewardship so could be seen as rewarding failure.

I have to agree also, you only have to look at what rewarding failure has done to society today

The Cougars have set up some fantastic schemes over many years that nurture and reward people for their efforts, it would be completely wrong and a seriously bad error for the Cougars to reward for failure now

Couldnt have put it better myself

If anyone should get this. its Rach.
She has been a stalwart of the club for years.

Working behind the scenes in all that time.

Not at all mate ...

Now someone like Ann Self who did the club shop for all those years , Keith our honorary matchday Car Park attendent in all weathers, John Pitchforth Clubs historian and statistician for donkeys , Alan Midgley , scoreboard man despite not being in the best of health, Colin Spencer raffle ticket seller extraordinaire and reserve team gateman or Carol and Maureen , devoted fans , supporters club stalwarts and past players reunion head honchos ( watch those girls still giggle like teenagers when Terry Holindrake talks to them !)
And dont forget SuperFan Sue Dodds ...... all should be given the freedom of Cougar Park and any daft title that goes with it .

Do you think that this title will go to anyone on ground level??

Probably not, but it should do. And it would be a good move by the club.

Rach for me, same reasons as Jim

I know we don't always agree on everything, but I would never question her commitment.

Vote for Rach!

Maybe we should get some t-shirts done in true Napoleon Dynamite style!

Would agree with that although Rach has put forward some good contenders herself.

Thats the type of answer i expected from you Rach.
That makes it even more important you get.

You are always working hard in the background, just like a lot of people you mentioned.

You still get my vote.

Didnt read the letter but where has all this come from??

Keighley News letters page this week

Rach why is there a "vacancy"? What is the criteria and what does the owenr of the role receive?? By the way I too think you should get it xx
