 Cas Granted Super League Licence
Posted by stevieb on Tuesday, July 22 @ 11:45:22 BST (7 reads)
Castleford Tigers are delighted to have been granted a Super League licence for the next three years. The club were confident of being one of the 14 teams to be granted a licence and the confirmation this morning means we can now plan ahead for next season and beyond with a degree of certainty
CEO Richard Wright said: “This is fabulous news for the club and the fans and just what we have been waiting to hear. The fans are the true strength of the Tigers and their support over the last few years is undoubtedly the primary reason we have been successful.
“I would like to thank everyone at the club who have helped to make this happen and this morning they can rightly celebrate our achievement and feel proud of their efforts. The last few years have been tough ones for everyone but there are much brighter times ahead for the Tigers and we can now move ahead with confidence to bring our very ambitious plans to fruition.
“Our vision is very clear - a top class team performing in a state of the art stadium – and today we have taken a huge step forward. The new stadium is moving ahead, and this news can only add to the momentum of the project. Plans to strengthen the squad for 2009 are well advanced, and we expect to be able to make some announcements very soon on that front.
It is also reported that the Tigers are holding a celebration party at the Jungle on Sunday from 12.00 noon - and the guest of honour is Mitchell Sargent after his paperwork has been completed and he is booking his flight.
All fans welcome.

Harlequins RL 12 - Castleford Tigers 66
Posted by stevieb on Tuesday, July 22 @ 11:30:29 BST (13 reads)
Michael Shenton, Luke Dorn and Richard Owen each helped themselves to three tries as the engage Super League's bottom club produced a ruthless display to crush a patched-up Harlequins side 66-12 at the Stoop.
Quins, bereft of a host of regulars through injury and suspension, had no answer to Castleford's attacking performance as the visitors belied their lowly position to cross for 13 tries.
Tigers started as they meant to go on in the 10th minute minutes when winger Michael Wainwright broke down the touchline, and despite his offload going to ground, Stuart Donlan gathered to race over.
Quins struck back shortly after, Chris Melling crashing over after Henry Paul's pass took out three tacklers.

St Helens 68 - Castleford Tigers 12
Posted by stevieb on Monday, July 14 @ 14:06:28 BST (41 reads)
St Helens showed the future is bright both on and off the field as a first-half masterclass saw the the engage Super League leaders register their 14th straight win at the expense of bottom club Castleford, who they crushed 68-12.
Nothing, it seems, can stop Saints right now and first-half tries from Matt Gidley, Sean Long, Lee Gilmour, Ade Gardner, Paul Clough, Chris Flannery, Jon Wilkin and Francis Meli put them 46-0 ahead at the break.
It was the perfect way for Daniel Anderson's men to celebrate receiving the green light to build their new 18,000-capacity stadium, which should be ready for February 2011.
The new ground cannot come soon enough but Knowsley Road was treated to a vintage display by a Saints side who simply cannot stop winning.
James Roby and Paul Sculthorpe (2) added further scores after the break and Meli completed his brace, which meant 10 different players touched down for Anderson's side in a 12-try romp.

Castleford 18 - Hull KR 10
Posted by stevieb on Monday, July 14 @ 14:03:15 BST (41 reads)
Castleford clinched their fourth engage Super League win of the season with a hard-fought 18-10 victory over Hull KR at The Jungle.
First-half efforts from Luke Dorn, Michael Shenton and Peter Lupton proved too much for the visitors, who could only claw back two tries after the break.
Rovers, now without a win in six games, only have the slightest of chances of making the top six.
Hull KR had the better of the early exchanges with stand-off Paul Cooke pegging the hosts back with an accurate kick.
And they had two early opportunities but failed to convert both.
First scrum-half Michael Dobson broke the Tigers' ranks but failed to find Lee Gomersall, who would have almost certainly opened the scoring given the chance.
Then a clever pass from Cooke, which sent second rower Chris Chester clean through, was adjudged to have been forward by referee Richard Silverwood.

Leeds Rhinos 18 - Castleford Tigers 12
Posted by stevieb on Monday, June 30 @ 13:58:40 BST (117 reads)
Leeds shrugged off the absence of 14 players to conjure a sensational fightback as three second-half tries gave them victory against the engage Super League's bottom club Castleford at Headingley Carnegie.

No fewer than 14 of Brian McClennan's squad were missing - seven were rested after playing in last night's Gillette international between England and France - and another seven were injured or suspended.
Castleford exploited the absence of key men such Kevin Sinfield, Jamie Peacock, Gareth Ellis, Keith Senior Danny McGuire, Rob Burrow - all of whom were instrumental in England's 56-8 victory in Toulouse - to open the scoring after 20 minutes through Richard Owen.
Castleford teenager Joe Westerman, 18, who had travelled to Toulouse as non-playing member of the England squad, then touched down six minutes into the second half to put Castleford 10-0 ahead.
But the spirited Rhinos dug deep thereafter to claim tries from Lee Smith, Brent Webb and Matt Diskin to avoid a third successive defeat and avenge their 38-20 defeat at the hands of the Tigers at the Jungle in March.

Castleford Tigers 22 - Wigan Warriors 22
Posted by stevieb on Monday, June 30 @ 13:57:04 BST (119 reads)
Wigan failed to shake off determined Castleford as the Tigers claimed a creditable engage Super League point at the Jungle this afternoon.
The struggling Tigers, three points adrift at the bottom of the table before the game, led for most of a blustery afternoon after tries from Ryan McGoldrick, Andrew Henderson and Peter Lupton.
Yet Wigan were much stronger in the second half and fought back to twice take the lead through Pat Richards, Trent Barrett, Micky Higham and Thomas Leuluai.
Crucially for Castleford, Craig Huby landed four goals.
Castleford, surprise winners over Leeds, Warrington and St Helens this season, looked in the mood to take another notable scalp early on.
The Tigers had much the better of the first and led from the fifth minute as McGoldrick, sporting a distinctive mohawk hairstyle, dived onto a Brent Sherwin and clung on to touch down.
Henderson doubled the lead midway through the opening period when he spotted a gap from dummy half 10 metres out and ran through to the line unchallenged.
