To be fair every Leeds fan I have come accross since yesterday has been very gracious in defeat so fair play to them.

It would be a lot easier for me if they had lived up to their rep of been arrogant morons because I so want to hate them right now.

But that has not been the case so I for one with gritted teeth wish them well in the final.

As for the game itself fantastic effort by our boys and we were very unlucky not to come away with it. That been said the lads in our squad will learn from yesterday go on to win so many semi finals and trophies. I just hope they will be in Cas shirts when they do it. Lets get the stadium sorted and the good times are right around the corner. BELIEVE!!!

I've stood in the South Stand many a time at Leeds-Cas games (my best man at my wedding is a Rhinos fan, he stands in the WRE at Cas-Leeds), the vast majority of Leeds fans there have been fine, and the banter has always been good natured. It probably helps that we lose most times I'm there, but still, the fans I encounter tend to be gracious in defeat and victory, and a few keyboard warriors on these boards won't spoil my real-life experience of Leeds fans and RL fans in general.

TBF on the way into the ground yesterday I saw and heard plenty of Cas fans that made me embarassed to be one and no doubt had we come out on the right side of the score there would have been plenty gloating and doing their best to wind up disheartened Leeds fans.

Every club has em I'm afraid and it depends whether you come across the a**eholes or the large number of decent fans from whatever opposition club you're playing that colours your perception.

I applaude the lack of moaning about the penalty decision from Cas fans. I expected alot of complaining this morning but the decision has actually been accepted by and large, for what its worth I think the decision was correct it happened right infront of me and was clearly high and if not for a swinging arm Maguire would have scored.

Cas played very well and Leeds just scraped through, well done cas fans.

As I've said on a nother thread, I really felt for some of the Cas players, particularly in the pack, who ran themselves to water and defended brilliantly. There were plenty of efforts in that pack that deserved a cup final at the end.
