| Quote: bren2k "I think that's the point though - having been a selling club for donkey's years, we know full well that when a wealthy club comes in with an offer, even for key personnel, the club are hard pressed to turn it down. Broughy is a prime example - he was the stand-out SH in SL, our absolute best player and won us many matches; despite that, Shudds were able to spirit him away because we needed the brass.
I don't know if Cas are in that position or not and weirdly, I find myself hoping that none of the big fish are able to make RW an offer he can't refuse; the only club I'd like to see him go to is WTW, and that's never going to happen - in financial terms, our new owner has got us off the life support machine, but we're a long way from being fully rehabilitated.'"
Agree with your point so was quite surprised that Cas turned down a very large offer from Leeds (well in excess of the £200k suggested above) for Chase.
Can only presume the board realised that the amount they made on the sale may be lost through fans voting with their feet and not buying season tickets...

| Some people just don't get it! Chase loves it at Cas and doesn't want to go anywhere.

| Meanwhile, @Rangichase6 has joined the Cas Twitterati. First three tweets:
"Glad to have got the future sorted and to be staying at Cas. Thanks for all your messages. Hopefully I will be here for more than 4 years!"
"Had silly money offers from Leeds and Warrington but i love Cas. #castillidie"
and
"its my home now. Dont want to be anywhere else"

| Or it could really be him and he's shown loyalty to the club?

Potentially but would be wrong to disclose offers from other clubs and metion 'silly money' can show love / loyalty without that (at least that direct).

I'll take @poskittc 's word that @RangiChase6 is legitimate, seeing as Craig's taking Rangi over to Manchester for the Man of Steel awards …

| neither craig poskitt or Ben Parker are following Rangichase6 on twitter and they were the ones trying to get him on twitter makes me think this is a fake account. Be nice if it wasn't but i don't think Rangi is unprofessional enough to discuss other possible deals

you're right - it was Phil Ellerby who tweeted "Man of Steel tomorrow night with @poskittc @CasFanAndy @rangichase6 #rangiformanofsteel"
I managed to misread it as a tweet by @postkittc rather than a tweet mentioning him

To be fair, a lot of people do it. Probably to get attention, make themselves feel big etc.

| I understand Parody accounts that can be quite funny, but trying to make out your the real person is just sad.
