Yep - I've got to agree with that TRB. We have now got to move forward though and cannot reley on our success from this year.

Success ????!!??!!??!

"Show me the Silverware"

Success..............................almost 4,000 ST's already. The league will be so tight next season that good home support will be very important.

Now, now, let's not be churlish! We'd have loved to have had a season like they just did, for all the ribbing we give them!

3000 plus season tickets sold is poor imo, considering there's nothing else to spend their money on in Castleford it ought to be double that.

Top 4 finish and a Wembley appearance. I'm sure you'd have liked WTW to have done the same.

We'ed have loved it + the 4,000 ST sales.

Oh I see we are going down that route again, funny how quite you were about it a few years ago

I sure would have liked it; then again I wouldn't be boasting about it being success. You get nowt for second kid, the position you lot were in you should have cleaned up, ended up wi sweet F.A.

Old Liverpool fc saying first is first second is nowhere !!

If it was a boast, then fair play, to reach a C.C final is a superb achievement, Hell, I still refer to it as the major accolade in my pathetic allegiance to this club.

As for being one win away from winning the league, I can’t even envisage a time we’ll come anywhere near being that close.

It’s not like he’s boasting on the board of one of them proper clubs.

True, they ended up wi nowt but I still would have swapped a trip to Wembley and fourth place for what we finished up with. Wouldn't you?

8th and not falling at the 1st CC game would be a pretty successful season for us next year and that's way below Cas's performance this year.

I assume you mean quiet. Well if so you are correct as I was completely silent cos I wasn't even present on this board till this season.

Anyway can I take this opportunity to wish you all a very merry Christmas and a successful new year.

Your name and your ST point along with the correction of an unfortunate spelling shouts TROLL to me, all be it a fairly good natured one - pack it in

Fair enough in many respects - though I think your a touch harsh on ourselves relative to Cas. From 2004 to 2010 we were by far the better more dominant club with a top 6 run that nearly left us 1 game away from winning it had a pass stuck and a few top 8's and a CCup semi we lost on kicks, sadly a bit like Cas last year we failed to capitalise to the full. We had our time, hopefully it will return ASAP.

In fact the Cas side of 2014 reminds me of our 2004 team but not quite as good to watch for me.

In the S.L era our 2004 season was probably the best, yet it still doesn’t compare to Castleford’s efforts last season.

They were eighty minutes away from winning both the L.L.S & the C.C, & whilst we may have had the bragging rights for the majority of that time, in the scheme of things, it’s a paltry achievement.

In fact, the moment I was most elated during our time so far in S.L was when we were given the 2nd licence – how sad is that

.

Again I don't agree entirely in that ours was spread across a longer period whilst theirs was one season - but opinions differ.

As for the licence - me to. It's a sad it's become such a part of the game but until we and Cas sort out infrastructures out we will both be also rans.

Stadium trust meeting tonight.

You're correct mate I've learnt over the years that this game is cyclical and whilst its tempting to be smug when you are doing well it will come back to bite your bum when your fortunes change for the worst. Maybe I ought to start a different thread on the subject but do Trin fans feel they are getting more sympathy from opposing fans nowadays because of what they have gone through over the last 2 or 3 seasons. In the circles I move in (does that sound naff) Its more of an arm round the shoulder for the trin fan than p!$$ take and for me its to do with the honourable way that MC has chosen to go.

So what news from the meeting

It was this morning.

Sorry, all I can say is that the trustees considered it a very productive meeting, both options remain very much on the table and that work continues, from all parties, to develop a fit for purpose stadium suitable for 21st century Rugby League in Wakefield.

So as you were so to speak

No news is good isn't it !!!
