Yes quite a grubby club at the moment . Us getting relegated would really be hard to take, but if they replace us that would be a massive kick in the gonads

The game v Cas at home was my worst ever experience. Utter plant life around us. Flares going off, beer flying around, menacing behaviour, abuse, obscenities etc, etc. Mind numbing
Imagine these two together.

I think the Fev fans can take it a down a few levels. I work with a couple of Cas fans who refuse to attend Cas Fev games due to the bother & are horrified at the thought of Fev getting promoted.

I think both Castleford and ourselves have a self interest on the subject of Featherstone. If they do what is required to gain promotion then they deserve their chance and whoever they replace knew what the outcome would be this season. I am sure we can all agree that during our time in SL we have had many off field problems and some supporters behaving badly.
I ask if the roles were reversed would you be on here saying we don’t deserve our chance in SL.

Nobody’s said they don’t deserve a chance of SL, could be a tricky time for them to come up with IMG going live the following season.

Up the Trin

Let's face it - it will be a difficult time for a few clubs - us included.

I agree

Featherstones chairman stated they have the best stadium in the area which is a four sided ground and not just one stand. Clearly having a dig at us and says once the floodlights have been upgraded he is confident they will be the favourites among the 3 clubs in the Wakefield District. Don't know how they stand regarding the other criteria that IMG have set out but this certainly puts pressure on Castleford who's ground issues continue to stall. Although not sure if Featherstones chairman will be around to see it through.

Featherstone have very quickly passed Leigh IMO for the worst club in RL.

Such an arrogant and deluded fanbase, hope they get stung in the playoff system and have another year in the Championship.
