| Quote The Avenger="The Avenger"It’s a positive step for them to find someone willing to buy out the Fultons because they weren’t interested in making any investments into Castleford Tigers. That said, Jepson is not wealthy enough to rebuild the Castleford Tigers as a club with all that it entails. He will need to find wealthy individuals willing to work alongside him while putting large amounts of finance into the club and I’m talking hundreds of thousands if not millions.
Even then their future will be determined by the proposed stadium rebuild, if that doesn’t happen they’ll need a Matt Ellis sized new owner who loves the club enough to take it on and the massive project of rebuilding it from the very bottom upward'"
Mr Jepson hasn’t bought anything, he hasn’t got the money to pay the foultons in full, that’s why he’s looking for investors, I reckon he’s pretty confident in Cas keeping their SL place under IMG and has doubled down on his investment and looking to go all in once he has the back of others with money. I’m still pretty cynical over his motives, I know more about him and his companies than most, I still think he’s looking to make profit out of the land on Weldon road, we will just have to see how it goes, personally think he’ll use the s106 money (if it ever comes from axiom) plus the sale of the land do build a new stadium with joint ownership.

| I'm not sure how the buy out would help the IMG score in any way right now.
It would indicate a confidence in the score but we'll probably find that out before any money changes hands.
It does of course help next year though firstly for the investment scores but the ability to improve things if they have money.
I thought they'd be in trouble with Toulouse improving their score but the changes they have made to stadium probably pull them back in.
Personally I'd be happy if we were both in. How will we continue our winning run against them if we can't play them.

| Quote deeHell="deeHell"Excuse my cynicism but your club have long history of making promising statements of little substance. Just check out your press releases about Glasshoughton in the lead up the 2008 franchise announcement ditto 2011 again. MJ latest ludicrous boasts of been at almost 15 IMG points. I suppose if the Fans buy into it's good PR but your not going to fool the professionals at IMG. I'll give you one more season before the bodies start floating down the River and then theirs no hiding.'"
A.bit like all the Newmarket promises then

I still have the letter Tricky Dickie Wright submitted objecting to the proposal on the grounds we could share with Cas in their new stadium. That worked out well didnt it.

If we receive this score we can at least look to an almost automatic increase based on an improved league position.

Not quite.
We'd need to be middle table ish (dboy worked this out I think) as we lose the 0.35 points from Grand Final and 1895.
