Why can't the club put a photo on our site of him scoring a try in a Cas shirt?

CT website have changed the pic on the article from one showing him in action in a Hull shirt ... to one in a Cas shirt. You remember, in the time we wore black & amber ... :-"

A Job for the boys??? Just a short time ago we were in the doldrums waiting for the ground to fall from under us. but since that time we set a few local boys on, firstly The best CEO we have ever had, Steve Gill, who knew that local people would bring the best out of our business, so he set more Cas lad on to take the players up another few runs on the ladder, but it turned out to be a master stroke and he took us from the bottom to the top,that was Darrell Powell and Danny Orr. .

Tony Smith was one of the best halfbacks we have seen in the black and amber, and if he can bring the youth through to the first team it doesn't really matter if he his a friend of the coach. all that matters his results.and time will tell on that front.
