Chessie stated in his press conference that the game was heading for a sell out great news

That would be excellent.
Lets hope its a decent night, a great game and a Trinity win

7500 ish I believe.

Funny that hasn't been a similar health and safety "check" down at the Mend-a-Joke

Despite what Cas fans say the place is a dreadfull dump.

However in all fairness it's not hard to see why it has a bigger capacity than us. Shows just how bad BV has become

How big is the Cosmos ?
How did life on earth begin ?
Is there a God ?

All big questions, but the biggest one of all !!!

How did Cas manage to keep their wooden stand and we had to pull ours down ?

Indeed and BV has always had a great pitch which is full size.
You have to kick a genuine 40/20 in Wakefield

That's what you get when you try to sneak off without paying for it

Actually I think the floodlights are an even bigger scandal.

We had to pull our old one down which were in every way better than the ones at Cas! Apparently they were structural unsafe and to close to the pitch!! Even though the floodlights down the east side were behind the stand for feck sake.

The club was forced to spend 200k on a white elephant. That money could have been used to refurb the east stand or relay the north terrace.

200k was a huge sum of money in 1992 - incredible that Cas kept there's, possibly the most dangerously located floodlights I've ever seen.

Serious corruption imho.

Not quite true, Vasty....my step-dad was Principal Electrical Engineer for WMDC at the time and he stated that the steel up-rights which the floodlights were mounted on were made of tubular steel and whoever had erected them, decades previously, hadn't capped them off, so over the years they had filled up with rainwater and had corroded from the inside out and were in imminent danger of toppling over, hence the reason they came down so quickly
