Quote ="Cas Till I Die"Your replying to a wakey fan .......
On the game, it was a very poor showing from us and about as well as fax will play all year against what is a cup final for the part time team who will do well against Hunslet or Leigh as usual.
Never mind you can go back to your own forum complaining about our 'dump' seeing top flight RL while the bernashay sees part time RL, despite having the same chances as us in modern rugby (a luxury better suited potential SL clubs such as fev have not had).
They complain because they are jealous and the only thing they can complain about is stadia because in every other aspect they are a lower tier club, we have gone down TWICE and came back into SL within a year both times... They got relegated 10 years ago and the top flight has forgotten them because all around they are not a top flight club and neither can they sustain one...
Halifax - poor old me of RL'"
I actually agree with a lot of your post, well most of it apart from the bit where you said that is as well as we will play all year.
I like Cas, they are a very similar club to Halifax and a very similar town. I also agree with a lot of what littlerich says and its something we discussed at the game with people around me. Yes we shouldnt get carried away with the result because afterall we were playing a team who wont bother the top 8 when it comes to the end of the season. You look at both teams and you could take a lot of ours and individually put them in the cas team and they would do a job near the bottom end of the SL ladder but on the other end you could take a lot of the Cas players out of the team yesterday and only 1 or 2 would be standout at our level where as the rest would do a decent job. I really dont think there is too much between bottom end SL and top end Championship.
The ground thing gauls me as its a bit of a running joke that goes on and on but then again I like Cas`s ground and with a bit of work Im sure improvements would be made but it boils down to money in the current climate and maybe us leaving Thrum Hall wasnt the best decision we made but who knows. im certainly not sure why the hatred from certain Fax fans is directed at clubs like Wakey and Cas who are very much in the same mould as ourselves and could have easily have found them selves in our position.
Something we also mentioned yesterday was that I wouldnt swap places with any team in SL at the moment. I doubt we have the money avenues yet to be anything other than what Wakey and Cas are which is teams just making up the numbers and I would rather play in the league we are in and challenge for trophies.
Anyway I wish Cas all the best this season.
