I personally know of a few people who 1 used to volunteet their services and another who used to work at Cougar Park. The volunteer put a hell of a lot of time in unpaid not just at 1st team games but at reserves before and after the match too. The volunteer then had 1 week off to come back to someone else doing the job and the club making it out that equipment had been tampered with. This certain individual put so much time and effort into the club unpaid and the club absolutly s**t on them. He was pushed out.
The second person i know off was an employee and like Nigel wasnt getting paid and didnt get paid for months. Under the contract this employee had a lot more hours were been put in and the club still didnt pay the wage. The club even started employing volunteers to do the job well still employed and this individual only found out through another person. This was the final straw and this individual quit. The club then realised what a good job had been done and when they didnt have anyone at the start of the season they asked the individual to come back even though he still hadnt been paid.
Nigel is not the first honest person to want the club to do well and put in a really good job either Employee or Volunteer and he wont be the last. I know the club are stuggleing for money but it is no excuse to treat people badly and look a gift horse in the mouth. I have no doubt that the team we have now has had an effect financially on the club more than before.
I just hope You have made the right decison Cougars and it all pays off.
