Wasn't it an Huddersfield 'home' game ?
If so, why did Cas have to change, they will have brought their away kit. Hudds should have been made to change as they seemed to be in their away kit.

Me and my brother was at the Cas away game and just before the teams came out,and i swear this is true,he said "wouldn`t it be funny if we came out wearing Castleford shirts".We still can`t believe he said that to this day.And i think the year was 1992 because i seem to remember they were only a couple of weeks from the challenge cup final against Wigan,and we beat them.

What costume did you wear?
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

One of the commentators on sky I think it was Eddie Hemmings said the teams were wearing the kits as a directive from the RFL. If this had been noticed when the teams were warming up it would have been almost as quick for someone to go back to Huddersfield and collect the home kit as brong the kit lady from her home.
