Save for repeating the sentiments already posted, which all four of us who were present do, we are still completely stunned by what happened yesterday afternoon and the silence that descended on the stadium. The Cougar, Skolars support staff could not have done more nor could the London Ambulance Service.

I didn't know Danny, but I watched him play in the ranks of Halifax's academy teams through his spells with both Halifax and Keighley, and his international appearances for Wales. On the field he was a talented player, a leader, a stalwart team-mate. Off the field; a joker, a friend, a family man. God only knows what Hell his family is going through now, and it's with disbelief that I send my deepest condolences and heartfelt sympathies to them at this saddest of times, and I extend this to his team-mates and staff at Keighley Cougars.

I wrote this just over 6 years ago on the Wakey forum after the passing of Leon Walker. I hope that it is still appropriate now.

No matter what colours you wear,
No matter whose field you grace,
No matter which team you hold dear,
Nor how strong the foe you face,
No matter how hard you might fall,
No matter where you might be,
Stand fast, stand true, and stand tall,
Stand amongst your family.

Still can't quite believe this.
R.I.P Danny. Condolences to all of your family and friends. Thoughts out also to everybody involved with the Keighley club.

Re: Danny Jones. : Mon May 04, 2015 7:40 pm  

I have supported Keighley for over 20 years inc cougar mania et al

I can say im so happy that I attended last weeks game against NWC, ok not the greatest game ever but certainly an entertaining one never the less especially that last 20 - 25 mins, best crowd of the season to boot.

However my point is the game was won by that final kick of the game by Danny Jones, the TH stand had 4 - 5 hundred cougar supporters in it when the goal went over it felt like 5000. Genuinely the players celebrated like they had won the cup final, all embraced the crowd soon after, ok in the contex of it, it was just a league game win, it felt like so much more, it brought for me a great feeling as the week went by one not felt in a long time. Actually ranked up there with some of the great cougar moments from cougar park and beyond for me.

It was such a happy moment and that is the way I will remember Danny Jones R.I.P
