Quote ="Dreamer"I can understand people being annoyed at the style of the game and the result, I am too, but it was only a friendly.
I believe their coach said they would play their 1st 17 and treat it like a league match, it showed. They were determined and desperate to win (note the drop goal at the end) whereas we ambled around like strangers for the first half with tissue paper for defence. When we actually started to play we looked very good, with some slick fast passing and attacks to both wings.
After last years debacle I said this year would be tougher than some would like to think and I certainly don't see us as favourites, we have the wrong attitude to "lesser" games. But neither do I read too much into glorified training sessions.
It would be nice though, if the real Keighley Cougars could please stand up.'"
In fairness you got back in to the game when Swinton were reduced to 12 players and worked the extra man really well, once we were back to a full compliment it's fair to say we regained the upper hand. I've no doubt that Keighley will be in the mix come the business end of the season. Good luck to your club.
