Big raps to the fans who travelled yesterday. I thought that we really got behind the team well yesterday. I am sure that the players and coach will comment on it later in the week.

I still have not got my voice back. Good banter with the Cas fans as well.

My only gripe was some of the obscene chanting i do not really like it. I was no angel yesterday as i questioned Gansons parentage twice which i am a bit embarrassed about i got over excited . But singing about the refs parentage reminded me of watching Town in the 1970s. Not a good advert for the game.


Despite that i reckon yesterday was as good a atmosphere as i can remember in an away game. Equivalent to Wire away at the end of last season. Well done Giants fans

there always is a good turnout and atmosphere at Cas - theyre fans are proper Rugby league fans.

and as for questioning the ref's parentage - it was Ganson,enough said

Yep. Very good turnout, great when players came over at the end, a largegroup waited.

It certainly equalled, if not bettered, the Salford atmosphere of a couple of years back.

I also feel a little [only a little, mind you] embarrassed about letting the whole of Sky know that it was the 'Same old Ganson...'. Did the non-travellers hear that? Looking round, it looked as though every single Giants' fan joined in that.

Did anyone actually leave at the end? There were quite a few songs/chants with the players in front of us lapping it up.

Oh, and someone has obviously had a word with Hodgson B about that waving thing!!

Well done to one and all.
