From my geekish memory, they have NEVER beaten us in the Challenge Cup!

TBF - although it would have been better to draw a NL team, we can't ask for much more. It should be a big crowd, Cas generally don't fiddle with attendences so some money coming our way. Plus it's cup rugby, anyone can beat anyone!

I, for one are looking forward to going over the Cas, it's always a good atmosphere and even though they have improved dramatically over the last couple of years, we CAN beat them!

Yer provided we get our share of the true crowd figure!!!

RL Clubs are notorious at not paying their way 'allegedly'.

We are OK. ClareFaxFan has already stated earlier in the thread that Cas 'don't generally fiddle with attendances'.

So on that basis, I'm happy!

Yes, because there was definitely less there at the untelevised, Friday night cup tie against Widnes than there was at the televised, Thursday night league game against Widnes. Definitely, 100%

That crossed my mind when told they were flying the balls in. Spoke to a coupleof people and turns out the Hawk Jet took off from RAF Leeming, did it's usual training circuit and then landed again. Fantastic Spectacle!!!

The RFL are incredible. They just released a report detailing why GB did so poorly in last years world cup. The conclusion says "The players simply did not perform". No Poo sherlock. How much did that detailoed investigation cost?

guttedit aint on tv. ill have to come back from newcastle to watch it now
