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.

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.

Wow, you don't see that type of action outside Duke o York.

Look players leave , I used to love good natured joshing the same way it used to flow between boards on here but then someone wassed in the feeder tank and a nasty bitter taste exists on all sides of supporters fences , nobody is exempt.
Some top the table however and to keep burying our heads in the sand and pretending that behaviour better suited tothe most deepest , fascist, rascist , sexist etc corner of southern USA barn dance and moonshine tasting is to give clubs like Castleford a green card to carry on for ever.
How many will never sttentend again?, my eife caught up in a car stopped by a house of a man shouting whilst holding the car across to whoever.
And as for the "over-reaction comment" you dont understand protocol for 1 , the costs the moron as cost cas and finally around for bradrords wooden stand .

NO MORE CHANCES BRING UP FEV

I have no idea what most of that means.

Been to work this morning and been told that the message the police received was that the stadium was on fire and 8,000 people had to be evacuated, so all staff from the Operations Support Unit (Roads Policing, Firearms, Dogs, Helicopter, Knuckle-Draggers (Sorry - "Task Force" as they used to be known), were instructed to attend asap to assist with the evacuation !!!!!

Fortunately one of the first officers on scene was quickly put in the picture, so cancelled most other units before they got anywhere near.

To be honest I'd be more worried if you did - bizarre rant.

Wow ! Just wow !

I can't say anything, but John Harbin's dad told me he was very surprised he was ever a moderator on here.
