By mid week it was pretty obvious that our allocation would sell out. Surprised the Adult tickets lasted as long as they did. I gambled and just got mine at 13330hrs. The last adult ticket sold just after me although the next few blokes got some £11 concession tickets. Some junior tickets were left too.
The "staff" were just two young girls doing their best whilst been given the 5hitty end of a stick. Maybe we'll get 2,000 tickets for the middle eight game?
It's good news for the club that they'll get the full commission on the allocation (10%?)

| Quote ="financialtimes"Firstly the post saying they had around 150 tickets was at 1pm an hour before bazzo's post.
Secondly at 12:55 Michael Carter tweeted "Just 38 adult tickets left for tomorrow"
Lastly, why wait til last minute to buy, these tickets have been on sale for weeks. Personally I feel people have an agenda just to complain and as for the shop, I have had nothing but excellent service in both the ridings and ground shops and never witnessed any of the poor service and attitude that gets mentioned on here.
Last point. There is around 25 of us doing a sponsored walk to the game from Crigglestone to Weldon road tomorrow trying to raise much needed funds for our changing rooms at Crigglestone All Blacks we will be stopping at a couple of watering holes through normanton and Castleford and we would really appreciate any support and all are welcome to join in the walk, setting off 10:30am from Crigg All Blacks.
let's hope we are rewarded on the pitch by the efforts some fans are going to for this first game of the season WTID

I done these walks before and they are quite enjoyable especially when you call for refreshments I catch up with you later bud got you and Kelv for a £5 each

I'm guessing here Tigerade that the Princess street stand isn't fully open, Michael Carter tweeted me yesterday regarding tickets saying the capacity is set at 9,000 and a bit, I'll go with our owners info as opposed to Wikipedia.

I've been at work today and when I had called no answer. I had no idea it was going to be a sell out till I saw it today on Facebook. But that still doesn't make up for bad customer service While in the shop. And the club been unable to keep fans updated. They sold out of tickets by 1.30pm. But told fans after that there were still tickets. Try taking your rose tinted specs off sometime and get your face out of MC's backside. There's no excuse for bad customer service and poor communication to the fans.

The club kept everyone informed via social media all week, what else do you expect the club to do? I like the fact they created a buzz on social media and sold out of all our tickets cas sent us. You can still pay on the gate so what's the problem some people just love a moan.

I don't follow MC on Twitter. I didn't realise that he announces everything that the official club site should. The club's Facebook said there were 150 adult/concessions tickets left at same time as bazzo posted there were none left. So figure that out? The shop staff gesturing and mocking someone on the phone is pretty poor tbh. Like you say though don't let facts get in the way. it took till 4.25 for the "club" to announce there were no tickets left. There was also only one update in the week about tickets, and it never suggested getting a ticket because it would be a sell out.
I do have to agree that it's clever work creating a frenzy for tickets. And I will buy in advance on future as I usually pay on the gate. Lesson learnt for me!

| Cas site is saying 9,000 tickets sold and capacity is reduced to 11,501 due to princess street stand damage. Message is be early if you want to pay on gate. great effort from both sets of fans.

| Didn't realise till Trinity Heritage posted it but we have won 8 out of the last 10 games at Cas.
No reason to start letting that record slip now.

The current score for league games between the two clubs is I'm told 89 - 88 in Cas favour, so it's a closely fought thing.

The Boot Room straight opposite the ground, especially with the weather being good. Pot luck with parking mate.

| It looks like congratulations are in order for Super League Australian coach Mr Webster.
Also looks like the late revival may suggest the fitness levels ain't bad.
Pleased for Mr Carter.

| Congratulations on the win. Fully deserved. Not once did Wakefield heads drop, even at 22-6 down or when Owen fumbled a certain try. It sort of reminded me of the good Friday game 2011. I felt we utterly choked but ultimately that came down to Wakefield wanting it more.
