As Chairman of the club I want to update fans what we are looking at and planning for this 2022 and 2023.
This season is crucial.
There may not be promotion after this, and we need to put Keighley in the top 6 of the Championship within a year.
I salute the work of Hendo and Rhys, who have delivered performances beyond our expectation. To have nilled opposition in two consecutive games is tremendous.
This is testament to the work these guys and their staff, and importantly, the squad have worked hard for and have proved it through results.
We have invested in this squad, in the training staff, and in the off-field team.
My thanks go out to them all. Rhys for his patience and progressive systems; to Hendo for his strategy and foresight with players and advice to Rhys.
And to Lisa for running the business to support what needs to be delivered and pay for all our dreams.
The recruitment of Dane Chisholm is, I hope, a Daryl Powell moment.
A moment we add that quality to a team that is already proving success, but benefits from that added talent.
My thanks to my sons Ryan and Kaue for working with Hendo to get that deal done. Folks, we have the best setup since the hey-days of 1995.
Support us, spread the word, and let’s get this club and this town where it belongs.
Mick

Well said. It will be lovely to have a re-run of cougarmania!
Wishing you and Mick O’Neil a full and speedy recovery.
Keep the faith!
Well said appreciate the up date hope you are recovering well
Will have Keighley rlfc running all the way through him. Thanks Mick for your dedication to our club. We’ve come a long way since the Milk Bar days. You deserve all the accolades that you get Mick. Thank you again and get back to full fitness soon.
Thank you
Part of the reason I love this club is because it is like no other I have ever seen. People like Mick have the club running through their blood and it matters to him in every way (not just making money) like it does to the people who support it and have done for as long as I can be remembered.
Although I don’t have the pleasure of seeing things from the inside (I have previously) this position the club finds itself in reminds me of the times when we had players managers admin staff ground staff entertainment staff safety staff ball boys and every single supporter all loving the club inside and out not just the job we do and it really feels like we are going back where we belong.
Mick get better very soon because you are not only our chairman but you are part of our family and you are going to see great things this season i just have such a good feeling 🏉❤️💚❤️💚❤️💚
Thank you from the bottom of our heart for bringing the club to where it is and look forward to seeing you back at the ground very very soon 😊
