No one is saying they are unhappy.

The chance of getting better players in is great.



Upwards and onwards.

You should be ashamed of yourself for this comment. The right to free speech is for everyone and a fundamental cornerstone of any modern democratic society



This forum is about fans being able to use their freedom of speech in order to talk about Keighley Cougars. Yet you feel the need to abuse your right to free speech in order to try and suppress the views of others that are contrary to your own.



Why can't you put forward a reasoned argument and debate it in a civilised manner like everybody else does on here? What's with the 3rd rate trolling?



[iI disagree with what you have to say but I will defend to the death your right to say it -[/i Voltaire

I think we have a strong squad but the proof is in the pudding, and other clubs are still building too. I'm excited for the start of the season with the squad as it is now.

In response to cougarmania_1978 "i see no reason in any more additions": the reasons I see for continuing to attract the strongest players to the club (providing we can afford it) are:

-Gives us depth in case of injury

-Creates competition for places within the squad so they strive to be better than each other

-To give JD flexibility choosing the right players for the right matches

-Prevents our competition having the players we want

-All our squad members learn from the more experienced squad members

-Another strong name from Super League may help to attract more supporters to games



there will be more reasons that I couldn't think of.

A rugby league paper this week reports that we will know this week if Sam is joining us, the report says JD hopes Sam is given a Superleague contract as he feels he should be given one but if not he is confident of signing Sam up as a cougar



You have to feel for Sam as he is obviously rated highly yet is not receiving offers from Superleague, Wakefield are reported to no longer be interested



Well dont worry Sam, keighley will welcome you

He's come off the quota too so am surprised some SL clubs aren't taking a punt. I think Wakey have switched their attention to another player and have all but signed Tim Smith so it would appear they are cooling their interest a little. He'd do a great job for us and hopefully if he did sign he could put himself in the shop window for a future move.

I do know

Sams the best signing you could have made and you have just got a few more Wakey followers supporting you.

you will be putting more weight on eating humble pie





as Al says you couldn't ask for a better player to join your ranks





here's for a happy new year for you all

Good Luck to Keighley for next year.



You have a great signing in Sam Obst. Never gives less than 100% and pound for pound one of the best tacklers in Superleague over recent years.



I think with all the ex-Wakey links you have got you will become a lot of Wakey fans 2nd team. I'll certainly be looking out for your results and wisshing you well.
