Well said that man.

I would accept that atmosphere is top of the agenda, but amenities are surely something that should be thought of, and that usually comes with a telegenic ground.

The Halliwell-Jones ticks all those boxes; seating for those who want it and standing for those who want it. Mix in modern facilities and you get an old-fashioned feel but you won't have someone ing in your pocket (or whatever the Ken Bates quote on modern stadia was)

I'm sorry but The Jungle is a dump and if we want to move the game forward we need to looking for more. Cas know its a hole as well and are actively seeking a new stadium. We may as well move back to 3 points for a try FFS.

Your just an absolute numpty mate. Even your own fans think so, but hey everyones free to there own opinion, even if it is slightly deluded.

It may well cost you your SL status. We will find out next Tue

Lets not talk silly - No matter how bad our stadium is, Its superior to wakefields - As is our Support and youth system - I arent worried about the franchise decision

Thanks. I still enjoyed my trip there this year regardless.

I hope Castleford get a new stadium and the franchise they deserve

I think Cas' only hope for a franchise and the only reason they would not get one is the build status of the new ground.

If the land is being cleared (I hear it is), and the money is in place then I have no problem with Cas retaining their place.

The issue is not what you have or don't have alone.

It is that you (currently) don't have a premium competition ground and that Cas is just a town. No interest to a national newspaper, etc.

I have alot of time for Cas as they have a good style of play and a strong belief in youth systems. Show that their is a new stadium on the way and they are a shoe-in, else they are at the mercy of the likes of Celtic, Toulouse and Salford who offer much more over a longer term.

Remember it is what you can offer to SL, not what SL can offer to you. The RFL have learnt their lesson with PSG; Toulouse is the heartlands of French RL and Celtic is all alone with no rugby union in the area and a public that wants it, and is on the doorstep to Cardiff

much as i love wheldon road, i know our future is reliant on the new stadium. They have started clearing the land for that new stadium as you say and naming rights have already been sold. Both salford and celtic are inferior grounds to ours and would be in new grounds no faster than castleford. Looking back my previous post did sound a little arogant but no team that may replace us has better youth development or attendances.
Widnes and touluse may have better facilities but such an advantage will only exist for a couple of years. Tolouse may have the advantage at that point of being an expansion club, but i cannot see what widnes would have to offer more than castleford.

and Tesco's sells discounted condoms

Do they now ..............................




I'll be your long haired ..................................

If the RFL kick Cas out then someone needs to bomb Red Hall.
