Great team with a great set of fans.
Created a great atmosphere, only thing the day lacked was a Cas win
But...can't win em' all i guess

which as with the Hull match previously leaves me wondering why the police presence was so large, and why they insisted on it being an early kick off, i know they will see this as a success, but i believe that it is proof that it wasnt needed in the first place....

spot on!!

I couldnt have made a 3pm kick off as started work at 6pm so was glad of the time change!!!

When walking back to car there were about 20/30 HKR fans singing "shoot the Castleford scum" now even though that is a little banter to me and you if there were a group of cas fans that had been drinking you could easilily see why it kicked off at 12.

I think the game kicked off at 12 and saved a lot of potential trouble between 2 clubs that in this day and age aren't known for being too friendly anymore.

Hi Folks

I just wanted to say that the reason the Mods are being more proactive about the use of terms like 'R****D' is that its not in this day and age an acceptable term to describe anyone, come on it is it.

As some of you might know I'm the Chair of the Rugby League Supporters Association and I'm in full support of an RFL campaign called 'You'll Never Watch Alone', this is intended to give those with learning disabilities the confidence to go watch Rugby League. It's been a big success and as a result some of people with learning difficulties with assistance and also independantly use Forums like this, so do thier families and it does cause distress and upsets people. When it does I get complaints and have to follow them up with the Mods and Admins here.

I'm just asking for support from you the RL family to help educate others who do use terms like this thats its not acceptable anymore. There are legitimate uses for it but you never get them used on these boards so please help me help others.


Thanks a lot everyone, good luck for the rest of the season and take care.

I've never understood this one though, because you're Hull too...

We're Rovers, they're Hull. (still doesn't make sense in some ways admittedly but it's tradition now ).

Gates Hull Thunder Sharks is a bit of a mouth full.

In the city of kingston upon Hull the 2 teams are described as Hull+Rovers.
So we all hate Hull is a directed to Hull FC.

They (Hull) are the Football Club,we (Rovers) are the rugby club.

And after 15 years in the wilderness we are now the top team in the city of Hull.
