Well he got paid for playing first grade tonight, which reserves does he play for in the current tense ?

He's not entitled to an opinion?

Pipe down, you're really coming across as an obnoxious, self-rightous tosspot.

Ben Black is a first grade, part-time RL player who won the M.O.M award in a losing side against full time players in their own back yard, is that so difficult to accept ?

Is it so difficult for you to accept that somebody might not agree with the decision and might have an opinion of their own?

I think Tiger Bond is just an embarrassed Cas fan.
I know i would be.

I heard a rumour after the game that Matterson wants to sign Benny Black for next season, 'cos it's pointless this season he's already cup-tied

Too true I hope they get Gateshead next so they can compete in the next round.

Championship isn't first grade.

Are Cas garbage or Halifax good?

Why would I be? We edged a great game against a good Fax team.

I would say both those statements are true I think they were all shellshocked I await the Leeds game with bated breath.

OK so Black won man of the match and desereved it but Halifax lost the game , End of Story

Tiger Bond said he's a reserve grader, that was the discussion point.

I'm sorry, please correct me where I'm wrong.

Superlatives abound on the fax board to describe today's efforts and fax folk who were there seem genuinely thrilled that you were so competitive.

To be so happy about being competitive against a team you think are garbage is a bit baffling and maybe slightly disrespectful to your players, but each to their own.

Or maybe you're taking the pi$$?

OK then, I will.

Matt James plays in the NL1 for Halifax, but he's a Bradford Bulls player on loan to Halifax who can't get in their 1st team. Is he a reserve grader or a 1st teamer ? Please choose your answer carefully. Take into account that Halifax don't have a reserve team and Bradford Bulls do. I'll give you a clue, he doesn't actually play for Bradford reserves when he plays for Halifax.

The what?

I'm sorry, I thought we were talking about Ben Black. As I said, correct me where I am wrong.

Maybe you are ? are you saying that your team played the best you have seen. I know my team played the best I have seen for many a long year but I have also seen Cass play better than that so what do you think?

Anyway i hope you lot do get Gateshead in the next round but for all the right reasons. Also think you will give Leeds a game too.

i tend to agree with marillion man here. i think ben black could make the step up to super league he went through your defence on a couple of occasions today and has quick feet he is small but effective.

he could make the step up to super league. if you would have seen how he has played all season you would have seen thagt plus if he is that bad why are your fellow supporters wanting you to sign him. seems your in the minority that wouldnt want him.

he played well today and stepped up against a super league side. although i would have given the man of the match to beswick myself.

Wasn't Ben Black the player who effected the only 40-20 in tonight's game, one which we scored from ?

Wigan will get Gateshead, I'd put money on it.

Halifax are a great club, always been a fan and used to love the games in the 80's when you lot came in your thousands inc the trumpeter who kept everybody entertained pre-match in the lifeline bar.

You're on the rise on the pitch and the fans are slowly coming back, keep it going.

yes but beswick scored a hat trick and played a good game all round.

yes ben had a very good game i just think that the award shoul have gone to beswick tonight.
