In all the years i have supported cas i have known many lows, but nothing has left me feeling as bad as reading this thread, many times we have heard the word merger but i have never been worried since i knew the cas fans would never let it happen. But now i see cas fans are actually considering it and that sickens me. No matter how dissapointing a result may have been theres was always next week, the club would go on and our fortunes would change one way or another. All that matters to me is supporting cas tigers, what league they are in and how many trophies we win does not come remotly close in importance.
If this merger were to ever happen, why the hell should any cas fan support it? it would have as much to do with cas as salford does. I would despise any merged club with a passion, and end my assosiation with pro rl completly, and there are thousand more like me.
For someone to say that no other club could bear the castleford tigers name makes my blood boil why the hell if cas fans want to start afresh in the lower leagues shouldnt they be allowed to? Even doing a bramley and becoming amatuer is better than just allowing the club to die, and the club would be dead, killed off by a new team that has nothing to do with castleford or its history.
I have sung 'cas until i die' on the terraces since i was a child, and i damn well meant it.
