Anyway...... we are both in and I am glad as I posted after the announcement.'"

I never said we were. JT asked if I felt that Cas had earned our license? Of course the answer is yes and stated that Wakey were favourites to go down which is fact..... Don't agree? The fact that u r in is great, but don't start spouting comments of grandure know you are. |

Erm, let me think this

Which someone replied to you, this

You are obviously not aware.

Probiz is a sponsor and the deal he struck at the beginning of the season was for the main shirt sponsor simple as that. If in the futute he decides he wants to up the level of sponsorship then great, but we have many other sponsors. Andrew Glover is your owner and quite within his rights to pump money in. The fact of the matter is you can only spend what is coming in from gate receipts/merchandise etc etc, so unless you get an extra 5000 people coming through the gate, it makes no difference what so ever to the salary cap.........

OK I will repeat it again...... jessssss. I am glad that Wakefield Trinity Wildcats PLC / Ltd / Holdings or whatever they are called these days, were awarded/earned a license for season 2012-2014. I look forward to our meetings over the next 3 seasons, plus the one in a few weeks which is now on Sky I believe.
Thank you all for you suppost pre-match and post match for the Semi-Final last weekend.  |

leeds were shocking but still managed a win! Unbelievable.
[sizeCouldn't understand why there were so many empty seats at Donny today. Two years ago us and Hull filled the place.[/size'"
For two clubs especially the ginger one who claim endlessly to be better supported than us it was a shocker.
I can kind of understand Leeds fans being a little jaded but Cas fans! Biggest game in years and they take less than Halifax took to the Northern Rail and I know which I consider the bigger game.
Another myth bust there I feel, Cas = poor away support. |

"Another myth bust there I feel, Cas = poor away support" - I think you are probably right their Vastman although I have noticed all away support is down on previous seasons.
Who would you regard as having great away support ? I certainly haven't noticed anything outstanding this season.
I don't think you right though by comparing Wakey's support in the 2008 semi to Tigers in 2011. We sold 6,100 tickets for Sunday.

I am not been rude but all those were avid fans, been season ticket holders for many many years and have never missed a match!
The fact is that most of these are glory supporters and we had plenty of those in our semi final game. Fact is a few of those will not be seen at the Jungle or whatever you call it for many more years.

"but all those were avid fans, been season ticket holders for many many years and have never missed a match" - I have never claimed this.
As you say, all teams have glory supporters. Tigers have an avarage amout of season ticket holders (so do Wakey) - granted, but the town (Castleford) gets an unbelievable buzz when we get to the big games. Some of the Cas folk who regularly sit in the clubs and pubs and in their armchairs watching Tigers on Sky make an effort to get to these games.
The difference is Castleford is a real RL town. A great number of people in Wakefield don't care for RL. Its in the stats.

Not quite sure where you got this one from, as you will find the attendances at other clubs are higher when Cas come to town, than Wakey or maybe we are a bigger draw..... who knows hey!!.

Given your posts on here and the Cas board, what I do know is that you're obsessed with WTW. |
