Are you all that much against a merger im not? My kids are not ? But im a realist dont think that will happen even though its proven to work ( West Tigers ) .
Both BoDs can hold there head in shame they have let us down too many failed promises, like everyone else i feel for both sets of fans another sad day for the greatest RL development area in the UK

A merger yes but I don't mind a ground share.
When all this is sorted and we do have to share a ground I think all those that buy season tickets or even better a season card should have entry if they want it to both teams if you don't go to away games.

Its time to leave sentiment behind us and consider whats best for the kids! the future of the district.
Do we condem them to a future of nl1 poor standard of RL or do we seize this obstlcle and turn it into a chance to forge a super club? one that in the years to come the supporters of tommorow will be proud of or do we dig our outdated sentimental heels in just because thats what we always have done !!

Sorry mate but it scares me to see that some people can even contemplate killing off our club for the Superleague silver.
I have seen a few Fev games this year and tbh sometimes they looked a lot better than our shower 6 or 7 games ago, the standard in the championship aint that bad.


Merger......... I feel sick

We know the score now. No more bull required the council will now decide where the ground will be, simple as.

I just hope they don't drag this out too long, then we all know where we stand (or sit).

There is so much contradictory information going around that continues to raise question on who or what source can be trusted.

I could have sworn that I'd heard or read that the WDC were not going to put any money in the Cas stadium....now on the Cas website they'd promised £2m if we'd got our act together !!!

However, looking at things in a simple way..... if either club has ever been sincere to it's fans about their claim to be able to meet the financial challenge alone as asingle club. With a now potential combined effort there should be some money to spare....should there not ?

For crying out loud......will both clubs please get on with it, before it's too late. The RFL would love to replace both of our teams and we are giving them every opportunity to do exactly that. Get your acts together!!!!!

In all fairness Speedy neither of those mergers were real just look at the distance between the fan bases

I would hate nothing more than to see my beloved Castleford Tigers become a feeder club, I want no part of that. A joint venture on the staduim is fine/realastic. To sell the soul of the club I have watched since god was a lad? Can't put a price on that as it is not a deal I would welcome.
