Cant blame Gale for wanting to get out of that cesspit of a town. Shocked he lasted this long to be fair.
Lol...that hiding really hurt didn't it...

Statement from the club.
The club are aware that in recent days of rumours have been circulating that players are not being paid.
Ryan O’Neill on behalf of the club has issued the following statement:
“I’ve read on social media and heard rumours that the club have not paid players wages.
In the 4 years since we took on the club we have never missed a payment to players. It is something we pride ourselves on.
Yesterday Kaue and I came up to Keighley to get to the bottom of where these rumours are coming from.
I always believe transparency with fans is part of what this club is about, and I am therefore sharing with you the root of this gossip.
At the start of 2022 season we increased match winning bonus from £200 to £250, in return for a restructure of the payment: Players would be paid £150 per win in the monthly payroll, and the extra £100 would accumulate into a pot that they would be paid at the end of the season in a lump. This ‘pot’ would be paid personally by us rather than the club.
This policy is beneficial for club cashflow, and in the end benefits players from having that increase in the winning pay.
At the end of 2022 season we paid this pot to the players, along with a substantial promotion bonus, which was a great boost for the players at the end of the incredible season.
We have now discovered that new players to the club were not aware of the winning pay policy, and this has caused this current issue.
We believe that the structure of winning pay is fair, and ends up with the players receiving more than they would otherwise, and is a considerably higher winning pay than many of our competitor clubs.
I hope this will put to bed the rumours, as they are damaging to the club, a drain on morale, and spoils what we are trying to do at Cougars.”

Keighley were given a lesson in how to defend yesterday.
Toulouse are the best we have played this year.

Aa a Cougar fan.
Thats the first game this year where it clicked.
Bulls were lucky to get 6.
We completely dominated them.

Keighley 68 Cornwall 0
Including yesterday's Raiders-Crusaders reulst, they are big scores but anyone who thinks that Raiders and Cornwall are an embarrassment should take a look at some of the recent Super League results.
Have to agree with you.
Some well drilled and disciplined teams have come to Cougar Park this year.
Been impressed by them.
Keighley are on fire this year.

Superb set up at Keighley. Great strides being made there. Visited this year and found the ground in great nick and vibrant with many attractions including street food etc, the hospitality was spot on and the matchday announcer really had the crowd buzzing. What a good day out !
Glad to see you enjoyed your day.

Keighley are putting together some team. Always had a soft spot for them after getting shafted in the 90's.
I hope they go up and strive on !
The club is now owned by people who really want it to succeed.
They are not spending beyond there limit.
Good times are happening at Cougar Park.
More signings in the pipeline.

The Cougars social media made no mention of a good performance from the Hurricanes. They also took a dig at Benn Hardcastle - a player who played for you for free when you were in financial problems.
What annoys me is that this is not the first time. Every time Hurricanes play well and deserve some credit that gets taken away because the opposition coincidentally had a 'poor performance'. What ever happened to saying well played to the opposition? How will a club like the Hurricanes ever be seen as equals when time and time again stuff like this happens.
Keighley coach has his say.

I wish it were Donny on the receiving end of Hornets 40-16 loss today! Having two Hornets players sin-binned in a 15 min spell from 16-16 all after 55mins didn't help!
The second sin bin. Was the turning point.
Both sin bins were good calls by the ref.

The same punishment was given to Brett Ferres in 2017 for a very similar “tackle” on Oliver Gildart.
And that wasn't enough.

6 games isn't enough.
Disgraceful tackle.

Has anyone got the pic of Barrie Mac and Terry Oconner smacking some Aussie players?

It will be interesting to see the reckless spending of money escalate too.
Clubs in SL have spent beyond there means and ended in the poo.

You do realise the precarious state of play at Bradford don't you? Its far from impossible that they could be relegated this year. Then what? Who is to say they wouldn't dissappear completely? Sorry mate but my club is far from safe.
Bradford have been badly run for a while now. For years we have had fans of clubs in SL, saying clubs in the lower leagues have to lift they game to into SL.
Maybe its time for clubs in SL to lift there game to stay in it.

Is it only fans of teams in SL which are unhappy about this?

Think RL Meltdown is going to be busy with this topic!!
Seems to me we need to consider whether the changes will replace poor home trained players with better quality non federation trained players. For instance is Wakey's 8th home trained player simply in a job because Wakey have to have 8 home trained players?
Could Wakey get a better non-federation trained player for the same money?
If the problem is poorly trained young players. Why are we not replacing the poor trainers. Instead of replacing the up and coming British kids coming through?

If its true he was sold to pay wages. Things must be really bad.

After watching Keighley yesterday.
I cannot see us avoiding relegation.
There are 2 games, we have a slight chance of winning.
The rest. No chance.
The new coach has a miracle to proform.
With a weaker squad than the club had last year. In a lover division.
