Bitter? Not at all I thought Cas just shaded two very poor sides. I'm frustrated because I've seen us play so much better this year. If that was one of Castleford's best performance then they must have played some pretty dire stuff this year.
On today's performances alone, both sides can forget about a top 8 spot.

Don't think that's bitter. It's pretty true. I would say most Cas fans would admit that they played poorly today. Which is lucky for us or else we would have been on the end of another paggering.

You are totally missing the point. Noone is claiming that. It was a poor game today. Two poor sides and a high error count. Cas deserved the win, without a doubt, but I don't think anyone will hail it as one of their best performances.

What he said.
I don't consider myself a sore loser. I can accept defeat if my side have given their all or the other team simply blew us away with a great performance. However today was one of those days were neither team played well and both sides seemed to want to let the other side back in the contest. The errors by both side were schoolboy on occasions. Some clueless attack and slack defence on show, not my idea of a good quality game.

Unfortunately they will and it was, which, as already mentioned is a pretty poor reflection of how we've gone this season. FWIW I thought Bulls played the better football - what there was of it - and scored the better tries but we hung in and made the best of our possession and limited attacking field position. Looking at the respective resources of both clubs I suspect most Cas fans would be happy to just be in contention with you.

| What resources do we have? Are you confusing us with the Bulls of 10 years ago?

Your attendances, corporate facilities and, I suspect, your sponsorship deals will be generating far more income than ours. We can't afford to spend anywhere near our salary cap so have the smallest squad in SL. I think it was fair to say you have greater resources than us if not as many as you would like or used to have.

I honestly think you would be surprised. I bet there is not much between the two clubs at the moment. We may have slightly larger attendances but we are losing money due to the upkeep of Odsal. We are no longer anything like the club you think we are.

Except that you don't know just how much the sins of our fathers are costing us on an annual basis.
