I don't have a problem with the smoke flares, I like you have a problem with people throwing bottles, but you have to realise. I'm not entirely sure, out of maybe 500? Salford fans about 10/20 threw items onto the pitch.

we are only three games into a three season contract.

I knew someone would bring that up, sorry it had to be you Danny but it's a smoke screen covering up the cracks. Like I've already said I didn't go tonight unlike your goodself and others but from what I've heard and read we're in for another 2007 season. I haven't booked perpignan yet and was going to tomorrow but can you or anyone else give me good reason why I should waste my money

The williows is a real quality ground that we're all jelous of though right

I'll never forget or forgive you lot for singing 'Cas are going down' a few years ago and treating us like sh** in Manchesta throwing bottles etc, thats what made that hammering we give you last night so much sweeter

It just goes to show how opposing fans react;-

From Cas:
There were 14 Salford fans there (No children) every one of them had a very dangerous smoke flare and they all threw bottles on the pitch. It was a disgrace, it was like a scene from the worst days of football hooliganism.

From Salford:-
There were 500 there from Salford, the usual mixture. Some had brought red smoke flares to create atmosphere. One idiot was running up and down shouting and swearing ( he should have been thrown out when the stewards spoke to him at half time). Salford played poorly and there were a couple of fans who threw plastic bottles at the Salford players, and one threew a smoke flare. I have no idea how many children were there in Salford shirts, but there were lots in Castleford shirts, most of them well behaved, but some were foul mouthed and seemed to have no parents around to keep them under control.
Many decent fans from Salford and Castleford had conversations about how Cas were in this position last year, and it takes time to build a side for SL. Many said good luck for the rest of the season etc etc.

Not a bad reflection of the "Salford" opinion. My Cas opinion is on a very similar vein. Not sure how many Salford fans but the majority there to support their team. There was the element of the "idiot" factor and, yes, we all have them. In 25 years of watching Cas I can remember only one other incident that was worse than last night and that was the Hull fans at Headingley in some semi final or other. The small group of Salford fans that caused the trouble last night should have been sorted out by our incompetent stewards at half time - the big guy with the goatee, the dark haired lad who was tanked up and pacing around looking for trouble (credit to the Cas fans for not biting) and the "father of the year" who was eventually ejected and his poor son had to go too. The eventual "flare & bottle" scenario could have been averted if our stewards had "balls".

I have also slated various quarters of the Cas faithful in the past for behaviour and comments that are inappropriate for a family sport so it's not just one way.

Finally, on the issue of segregation - I think all fans should be able to sit or stand where they want but I also feel that they should be able to feel comfortable wherever that is. However, I hope we're not in the same end at Murrayfield as the idiots last night. Any other Salford fans I'm fine with.
