7 eye-witnesses have publicly come forwards + others in private which has lead to Cas deeming the comments by Burgess to be slanderous. So a retraction will have to be made by either him and/or the club.
He's been told that it wasn't Cas fans yet he still hasn't deleted the original Tweet or issued an apology, same goes to people on here, despite the witnesses people are still blindly and with nothing other than petty bias, still blaming Cas.

...and again as you seem to have missed my first reply:
So let me get this right, seven independent witnesses have confirmed that the alleged assailant belongs to a nearby travelling community.
This is also not the first time that members of this community have participated in criminal damage/attempted ABH by attacking passing passenger vehicle and has been going on for some time.
Castleford Police have done nothing to protect its own residents against these continued attacks?

Correct, the Arriva complaints have come from drivers to the actual company, which I can only assume have been forwarded onto police, if not I don't know why you'd have to ask Arriva.
The issue last night however, did get reported to police.
As for police in Cas, you're having a laugh right? the station closes at something stupid like 4pm and you NEVER see them walking around the town.

Fletcher: Course, he sees 'imself as an authority on curry, he does, on account of where he was stationed in the army.
Rudge: Where? India?

Woo one wrong word which in essence, is the same thing The fact still remains, Cas are prepared to take legal action if he doesn't issue a retraction.

So the Old Bill clock off at 4:00pm in Castleford - if there was anything of value in the town it would be burglar's paradise - good job there isn't.

Pretty much
I think the officers stationed there go to Normanton & Pontefract though, why? who knows.

How does anyone know that this 'travelling' lad isn't a Castleford Tigers fan?
This would be my first line of defence in court and a tough one to prove/disprove.

Could that not be used the other way round as well though? How can Burgess prove that it WAS a Cas fan?
In most likelihood I'd wager it's an empty threat by the club to get a retraction from Burgess, because to be perfectly honest it isn't on for him to make the accusation he did and in the way he did.
As someone else said, it's probably an over reaction by him because he doesn't like Cas fans for cheering Walkers hit last season.

But it is not Burgess that would be instigating legal action. The onus would be on the prosecuting council to prove this lad wasn’t a Cas fan.

| Quote: Gaslight "Which is of course why Cas have contacted Leeds today telling them to get a retraction from Burgess or further action will be taken?
There's a lot more independent witnesses who have come forwards saying it was this group of kids who've been causing Arriva problems. As said over on the Cas board, I'm sure they wouldn't mind including this website in the legal action with some of the comments made on here.
Far too many people STILL blaming Cas even though there's more people who saw it saying it was a group of kids than Burgess ASSUMING it was a Cas fan, hence Cas as a club threatening legal action against him & the Rhinos as he is an employee of them.'"
I can see that getting all the way to the Old Bailey ![ASS icon_ass.gif](images/smilies//icon_ass.gif)

7 Cas fans?
Jog on. Leeds destroy Cas and the Leeds bus gets bricked by random youths, strange how they only usually brick Arriva buses.
