No one likes an overachiever.

I totally disagree with this. I love being able to mingle with opposition fans in Rugby League. I'm going to miss 'changing ends' at half time when they knock down the last few real Rugby grounds tbh.

One thing for season ticket holders to take note of if you're considering the 'friend for a fiver' option. You must exchange the 'friend for a fiver' voucher for a ticket (even though there is nothing on the voucher saying you have to) at the ticket office, not by taking five pounds cash & your 'friend for a fiver' voucher to a turnstyle. I found it rather frustrating to find that you can pay cash at a turnstyle or present your season ticket (or previously purchased ticket) but cant take a 'friend' in without exchanging the said voucher at the ticket office.

Can you elaborate on the [iproblems[/i you encountered please fella?

Agreed. As far as Cas fans are concerned, getting to mingle with Warrington fans is as close as they'll get to moving in cultured society. They might even cut out the homophobic chanting after a while.

I meant with the huge delays. RE: other poster - I have no problems with mixing with the aways fans, that is perhaps the most enjoyable aspect of our game.

But there is no doubt that allowing Warrington and Cas fans to enter via the same turnstiles caused more problems than there should have been.

In hindsight, my earlier post made me sound a bit of a tool - apologies. I have no problem with fans sharing a stand; it's just frustrating when it causes additional delays (which could have been solved).

No wonder there were delays in getting in .... to be fair to the Warrington club they've had to cope with a crowd of 10,000 today (including free tickets to local schools) .... thats nearly capacity!

Ownage

did 3,000 get lost today then?

This wasnt the problem though. the problme was not enough turnstiles open. Im certain that come the St Helens game ALL the turnstiles will be open because expectation will dictate it will be sell-out

Why were only two open? Is that true? There are turnstyles at each side of the West Stand.

I was stuck in the queue also and I was there 10 mins before KO. Stewards absolutely useless, I suggested they let people in with tickets through the latecomers gate but that was obviously too "out of the box" for them.

I would like to thank that kind female Castleford fan who gave my daughter a free ticket.
