If Cas win, I’d hope for Viv Nicholson shouting, sell, sell, sell, because one way or another, they're still a selling club.

Don’t get me wrong, they have performed superbly this season, yet they still have to sell, it doesn’t bode well for us.

I can't imagine we would have budgetted for a money spinning Wembley trip but the cash will certainly come in handy for 2015. The cash from a top 6 finish ain't bad either so i'm told.

Yep, financially it’s going to be a bumper season for Cas this year.

I wonder if Old Jack will want a slice of the pie, or is he just happy to walk out with his team, as proud as punch?

Who would you like to present the trophy if Cas were to get the result? If it was Trinity I wouldn't care less.

Not too bothered either DA who presents the cup - as long as it's Shenton who recieves it - that will do for me.

Regarding Sir Jack - I don't know if he will walk the team out yet, if he doesn't I'm sure his son Ian will fill in for him.

Spoke to him this morning and he never said a word!
What a gent, even taking into account his Cas and Leeds connections.

I know what I meant, I think

Every time I see this soft spoken gent, I think 'how did he put the fear of god up the Aussies?' He did and made a good job of it!

He's a great example that you don't have to be a big angry psycho to be tough.

To quote Sully......
You are not frightening......but you are fearless!!!

He was absolutely fearless. And that is frightening.
