Great article. Good luck to them !!

like the bit about engaging other communities- it’s something every club should do - it’s not only a good thing to do but makes sense in today’s changing world

[Oliver Clothesoff 2,805]

Sports clubs need to have some form of income stream seven days a week, 365 days of the year (or as close to that) rather than just on matchdays, especially in League One where there are so few matchdays as it is, and forging links amongst all communities is vital to this.

I knew Mick and Mike in the days of Cougarmania and I wish them all the best for the future.

Great article and a pointer for a lot of clubs

Great article. Makes me wonder, has the sort as a whole gone backwards? Keighley were trailblazers in the 90s with Cougarmania and publicity stunts but in the last 10 years the game seems to have became more conservative and afraid to try anything like that

They are simple things like combining Kabbadi and having Asian food but it’s these simple things that have long been overlooked. I’ll be a very interested spectator

A very enjoyable article, and I wish the club all the best with Cougarmania v2.0

Not rocket science- just create a genuine feeling of engagement and excitement and success can only follow
