You would feel the same at most of the clubs, being a Trin fan we have been through some lean times you support your club through thick and thin not just the good times.

As an aside I dont think Cas are far off, its taken us a long time to get where we are (competative on a regular basis) we now have an excellent youth set up that is starting to produce a crop of good players every year, this year being the biggest, we have had to invest more in older players to blend the side but I am sure our young lads will be vastly more experienced for it because they are not getting beaten every week.

As for cas I think you are a couple of years behind and you have a good youth set up however the strength is not there are first team level yet to support them playing in numbers this causes a dilema for the coach and fans.

We'll just have to see how it goes.

the differance is you have a proper coach with discipline and young players briming with confidence because they know that if they perform to a high standard they will be rewared with a game. At the moment Cas youngers are losing confidence with the set up and moving elsewhere because aussie players can do no wrong under TM.

What Cas need to do is concentrate 100% on keeping the majority of their Scholorship players from 14, 15, and 16's. The scholors at Cas at that age group are by far the best young players in the country. I could name 10 now who have a bright future, and are all from around the Wakefield district.

I think that now the scholorships are starting to play games, most of you lot if you get the chance should at least try to watch one game of each age group (only 15's and 16' play games) , and smile, as I cant see any other teams getting anywahere near them.

I'm pretty sure TM didn't break Owen's leg, or injure Widders, Ferres, etc. Come to think of it, he didn't award that last try vs KR either, or keep Warrington at full strength despite their tactics, or give any of those other dodgy decisions Cas have suffered so far this year. There may be a debate to be had about his half time team talks, given that there seems to be a pattern emerging where we go through a 'patch' at the start of the second half, but apart from that...

I don't know if anything's going on behind the scenes, but I'm damn sure this "let's have a protest" culture will solve nothing.

While it is true the injuries and the size of the squad isnt T.M's fault, the fitness, conditioning,tactics and substitutions are.

The Leeds game aside we started the season full of negativity not helped by Richard Wright's comments.

A good win (AT HOME) on friday will help in lifting the doom & gloom

Terry looked animated when i saw him.........well his left hand did.

We get to mid table and Cas stop investing, they do it everytime.

The board want the club in Super league but thats it! not bothered about winning it! as long as they are not bottom they are not bothered. Always been the same.

Smilies only required for a response to the OP.

Which to use? This one: or this one: ?

imo its hard to accept but cas like wakey and a few other sides as well simply cannot compete financially with the top teams. even the likes of wigan,huddersfield, hull kr ,hull fc etc are spending far more than they bring in .

so unless you know a millionaire prepared to throw his millions down the drain each year the reality is they can probably only go so far

But we should be winning the league, and the cup.

What is wrong with people. look at the fixtures we have had to start a season!! Wigan, Leeds, Saints or any of the other big boys would have struggled. We have beaten Leeds and Cats away, no easy task. We have not been embarrassed in any of our matches. The wins will come, and at least we have got some of the hardest matches over.

With regards to protesting, I am still going to protest. But at the lack of bummery/bagpiping in the modern game. I don't believe in peaceful protests so I am going to bring a number of molatov cocktails, and a range of semi automatic weapons. Look out for me, you wont be able to miss me. I will be shouting "Get some bummery in super league" Firing a semi automatic weapon and throwing molatov cocktails. If anyone on this forum sees me why not come over and say "Hi". Its always nice to put a face to a name.

Think the protest after the game will be something along these lineshttps://farm3.static.flickr.com/2019/2071702334_eb7647218c.jpg" >

'Careful Now'

Typo's... etc.

Can i suggest the slogan: "Bring Back The Crack!"
