| Quote: A-Fire-Inside "From the outside looking in, I've never understood why Richard Mathers has had so much abuse from the Cas fans since leaving the club.
Wasn't he told by Ian Millward that he wasn't wanted? So why all the vitriol against him when he all he did was find another club, what did the Cas fans expect him to do? If that is all that happened and he's got a load of abuse again tonight I don't blame him for celebrating excessively.
Or is there something that I'm missing - is there more to his departure?'"
You have to factor in the fact that everyone, refs/ rugby league/ arriva buses are against them!! Odd sort of people!

I think some Cas fans resent the fact that he scored some significant tries against them last season, whilst they were still paying half his wages; and the fact that they replaced him with Richard Owen, who is total gash.
They won't need to worry about him for much longer though - Gronk, their finest legal brain, is preparing to have him arrested for celebrating a try; he'll spend the rest of the season in the big house.

| From Cas official website:
"Following concerns that a bulb in one of the floodlights above the Princess Street Stand was on fire, the Club acted swiftly on the advice of the Fire Service to evacuate the stand and allow them to inspect the floodlight in question. Upon inspection the Fire Service said that it was not on fire. "
They should really do more work with the community to prepare them for seeing electrical lighting for the first time. "It's witchcraft I tell yea, run for your lives"

They are not doing themselves any favours and I don't think they're bothered about how other clubs/fans perceive them.'"
That is how I see it too unfortunately. The club has given up SL allready IMO. Rumours also doing the rounds are London have played their last game at the Stoop and are accepting their fate (like Cas Tigers) on life outside SL.

| All in all a great days work by the lads and the bonus of an extra 7 mins additional recovery time for Monday!
Just wonder who will play fullback if gronk decides to make a citizens arrest on mathers, making him unavailable.
Mind you t'lad has a lot on this weekend, what with building a case to dismiss millward without a pay off due to gross misconduct for lying about being a qualified coach at an acceptable sl level!

| Wheldon Road was already dark and gloomy(even with the floodlights on), both in goal areas were in darkness because of the inadequate floodlighting.
It's becoming quite a depressing ground.
The irony with the "Wish" advertising all around the top of the stands does make you chuckle.
Maybe if they wish a little bit harder they may actually win another SL game

| It was a strange atmosphere right from the outset - Cas fans seemed subdued and their cries of foul play at every touch and turn would have put the Odsal whingers to shame; the victim mentality appears to have taken hold. I also thought that the stadium itself looked even more neglected and run down than usual - typified by the debacle at the end, when we lost the opportunity to rack up a few more scores, thanks to a non-fire.
A strange evening and possibly Millward's last game in charge; if we beat Hull on Monday, we could earn the distinction of having seen off two head coaches in one weekend.

| Heard a rumour today that the reason Ferres resigned was because he presented the board with a list of H&S concerns which he said he was ultimately responsible for as Chief Exec.
The board refused to back him on geting these things resolved so he walked.
I have no idea how true this is but have little reason to not believe the person who told me.

That's really nothing special. We put 52 points passed them and look how garbage we are. An easy two points for you lot on Monday I feel.

In all fairness to strech, I think if lived in Cas I would have to get half cut everytime I had to go back home.

| So the floodlight bulb was supposedly on fire ? Why at least 2 fire engines, at least 10 police cars plus more emergency cars on the way plus a chopper buzzing around. A bit of an extreme over-reaction caused by a faulty bulb ? #headscratcher

The police may have been there to contain the situation developing between d!ckheads from both clubs outside the Boot Room pub.
