Shame we can't get old Rolf Harris to knock us out a painting. One was valued at £50,000 on Antiques Roadshow last night. We could do a lot of good with that sort of brass!
It is quite a quandry and a waste of money if you get it wrong. I was in Australia in 1998 just after Brisbane beat Canterbury in the first NRL grandfinal and there was an absolute ton of Canterbury winners merchandise on sale for 25 - 50 cents because they had got it all made up incase they won, but that must have cost the club a fair wedge.
In response to Lawkholme Len from a while ago, yes it was me that came up with the name Cougars, it was a fair while ago now I was only 7 at the time. Funnily enough I have recently moved house and came accross the news paper cutting from the Keighley News announcing the clubs name change, and next to it, an article on us signing Jonny Walker from Otley Rugby Union.
but I do agree a polo would probably sell better'"
The LS Prints stuff looks good and was a really good idea.
I'm just of the impression that any item of clothing that the club uses in an official capacity, be it kit, training wear etc should be made available as merchandise. It surely can't be difficult to run a few more off in various sizes when they get them done for the players/coaches and when they sell them, they'll should effectively pay for the ones they've given to the staff for free.

Looks like the club have listened to fans. On the website there is a teamwear section on the left hand side. Should be available in 2012. The options are t-shirts, polo's, shorts, hoodies etc. Credit where credit is due again the club.
