Does anyone have any thoughts on Obst dropping down to the championship to play for the Cougars?

Yes, all the best to him. He always gave his all for FC.

I'm surprised, there are far worse players plying their trade in SL.

Massive coup for the us and along with Michael Korkidas signing shows that Jason Demitriou can bring quality to the club.

Over the a last 6 months or so there's been signs that on and off the field things are improving. Slowly but surely Cougarmania is being resurrected. The signing of Joe Grima was the catalyst for the original Cougarmania, Obst could well be the catalyst for the resurrection.

Keighley sound ambitious, fair play to them.

Back where he came from - Obst is an example of the quality of overseas player that has dragged the standards in SL down - Korkidas is another surely up there with the worst overseas player every to grace SL.

Keighley is where they should be - they have stolen a living in SL.

Korkidas is a pudding, I remember Rhys Lovegrove planting him on his booty when Korki gave Dobson a cheap shot.

That’s why Wakey went bust.

Obst was brilliant in the Championship, quick and lively. Wish Leigh had him.

Joe , we both know he wasn't fast enough for SL , our coach told us so

Great signing for Keighley. When you look at who've they've brought in they should do very well next year. Have they got a new financial backer lately? Just wonder where the money's coming from?

As far as I know it's come through our squadbuilder scheme. However the club has done really well recently as regards attracting a lot of new sponsorship.

Because of the current financial climate at the moment, there's not a lot of money around in the championship. I suppose that makes it a little easier to bring in quality players for less money.
