Wouldn't every coach say something similar just to deflect the blame of missing out, in a similar way Fev have talked about missing out on Tonka/Barlow, Rhino talking about Fev wrestling tick-tacks after losing out on the chance to finish top of the league, Powell throwing out the teddy after the NRC final, etc.

Just take it all with a pinch of salt, not everything you read is truth!

Whatever thing is we missed out on him and we now need a quality hooker and/or halfback IMHO. Whether Fev offered more who cares? I think Fax have to move on and get some quality in thats so far missing. Our team so far for 2013 doesnt look that good but maybe in a month we will be in a much stronger position. The board have done everything they can its now up to Rhino to get the right players. I dont rate a few of his signings both from last year and recent signings, but for me him and they have 12 months to prove things. If Fax have a poor season, then RHino should go at the END not mid season, despite what some people will shout if we have possibly a season that we dont really push on. There is only one team going to SL and its Featherstone for me. They are a class above on the field in most games and have consistantly been the best team this past 3 years and the signings look more like they are moving to SL soon. They have a powerful board that run the club very well. Halifax are not too far behind off the field but in certain key areas for me are still very much lacking. Fev have overtaken us sadly for the next SL spot.

Don't know why Rhino would have to say that any modern day player will go where they get the most money all this kissing the badge doesn't wash with me Barlow will of stopped with Fax because they offered him more money than Fev that must of slipped Rhinos mind It looks like he is now moving on so really not that bothered what shirt he wears as long as the money goes into the bank As long as Fax and Fev don't try to outbid one another on players and get into money problems may the best club get there players they want Any Ellis is with us for now so lets see who Fax get because there main man has gone and will take some replacing as will Barlow

ok, so lets just see where Fev are winning;

Ground - worse ground in Championship? irrelevant that it's owed cos it needs £3m spending on it to house any decent spectacle
Crowd - less than us and Leigh as home attendance AVG, even with all their on field success (cabinet full of league leaders trophies)
Strong board - who's the money man, they haven't got one just like us and Leigh
On field performance - how many GF wins in last 3 year? 1 just like us, NRC trophies - NON us 1


Sorry but don't see why Fev are any higher than us or Leigh or even sheff in the pecking order for SL.

Ground been sorted so cannot comment until next season. Hope we don't have to close one end and leave one corner half built with on money to finish off

Crowds. Highest average in Championship this season improving year on year Has Fax gone up on last year or Leigh ?

Strong board with excellent vision and top sponsorship from many different companies

On field performance League championship 3 times Grand Final 3 times Under 23s champions woman RL champions teams and club run like every S/l club set up ( like Sheffield and both in the final again )


I can see why YOUR fans think we are ahead of you

should re-word that.

Worst ground in the championship? eye ok, it is as we speak like a building site, 2 stands going up this isnt a Cas drawing shiiite its happening, will be fit for purpose start of 2013.
Our crowds are the highest in the league this season that with no away support, a paltry 190 came from Fax, we often take 500 away.
We dont need a money man but have Mark Cambell, we have been in the last 3 grand finals. But you fail to mention the real reason we are light years ahead of you. We have 5 teams a clear pathway from u14 to 1st team and a successful womens team, we fund our u18s our selves to the tune of 100k and we compete with super league teams in that division and do very well. You wont like this either i know for a fact your board are seen as stuck in the 70s by the RFL just like i knew Barlow was off, your recent super league application proved this.. Your years behind

And yet we'll both still be in Championship for a long time lad.

By the way, "stuck in the 70's"? That's the future for t'pit village

Come on guys why are we bickering again lets just enjoy what we have and show some mutual respect.

After all each club at this level has to go through with little or no recognition from anywhere else we need to stick together.

To us our own club will always come first and last but what a comp we have had this year where ALL teams and their supporters have played a part.

Id sooner be in it to be honest much better league, chance of finals every year. Let them go bust i know plenty of Cas fans and they always give me the "were super league" crap. well they used to but most have stopped going now

Its a great league i for one wouldnt want to go up with the state of super league not yet anyway

Well said Faxcar

The games going bust for Super League almost every week there is a club in crisis comment from a BOD member or club official.

I can't see it changing anytime soon.

Can't argue wi' that 'owd cock.
