The Boot Room is the one directly opposite the ground. Good for nitrokeg and lager and music played so loud it makes your eardrums bleed.

(yes, I am nearer 50 than 40

)

Myself and the DM shall be in attendance. Pre-match lunch in the frightfully nice Thai restaurant. Adooooorable.

Pip Pip

might grab a ginsters pastie on the way to help soak up some of the stella

Is the game in any doubt following the snow yesterday?

No. None at all up here.

cannot wait for this game iam going down with my dad and its my frist trip to cas

You'll never want to leave.

A proper old fashioned RL ground, locals can be a bit erm, boisterous

but usually a good day out, if we weren't moving house this weekend I'd be there too.

Pie and peas are damn good if I remember right.

Agree. My favourite Away match of the season.

Hi Guys

Hope you all make it up north for the greatest game on earth. It should be another close battle, but i think we owe you for the Challenge cup mauling last season.

The best pubs to go in are The Glassbowers in town centre(weatherspoons) and Garden House at the entrance of wheldon Road. Both do good meals.

The Garden House gets alot of ex rugby personalities in, mainly ex cas players.

Personally im going for Sunday lunch in Glassblowers and then a pint in Garden House

Anyway enjoy your trip and lets hope for a good match.

I must have been in there on an off day.

Plastic boil in the bag beef, microwaved roasts, soggy veg and a farty little Yorkie pud constituted a sunday lunch in their eyes.

Garden hose is spot on, quality sunday lunch.

I think you've already paid us back for that with the league match at The Stoop last year!

Ah, a sizeable portion of your lot still want revenge for 1999

I agree with the sunday lunch at the glassblowers it is a bit microwavey and rubbery but their grilled food is Ok.

Thanks for the permission.

Funny last year when some young lads were being rude, and the stewards just stood there, wassn't it you Mike that shouted at the Stewards to move them on?

Yes, this was the game where I was hit by a screwed up tea bag thrown immediately after the final hooter last season.

try and check if the game is on before you set off tommorow,there has been a very heavy frost again this morning and its forcast to be the same for sunday, i do know there were some concern if we were to get two nights frost.

As it's valentines weekend I'll take the old lady out for a trip. Agree about the ground, I love proper grounds rather than the lego sets that are springing up all over the world.
Might even be romantically pushed to buy her a burger, see you there, what time is the inspection, anybody know!

Well I assumed once one pub was mentioned ( the spoons one) most people would meet there, what time are you going to the boot room, and where is it?

I am going to try to get 2 of my mates to come with me, and if they do come I'll take them to the spoons because the boot room may intimidate them a little and we know what spoons are like. If they won't come I will meet you in the boot room

I've PM'd you Sogs.

Forecast is pretty good.

2°C overnight and a tropical 8°C on sunday.

Looking forward to tomorrow for what should be a good game and i imagine both sides will fancy their chances. All those riding the Quins skateboard, have a safe journey!

I've got a feeling there will a few there tomorrow (more than 3!!!)

Its Sunny in Sheffield so hopefully the same in Cas?

I expect around 100 of us tomorrow

its not sunny but has warmed up,the castleford acadamy team had no problems training this morning on the fields at the back of my house which is only two miles from the ground so the game should be ok for tommorow.
