Yes. Several fans including myself posted the link to it last night as a reference. It stated hudds were to play in principle and cas in alternative. Looked at it today and they have changed it to hudds/alternative and cas/principle.

I'll take your word for it sir!! But what a bunch of bent B'stds. The RFL are an absolute disgrace!
I'm off on one now!!!  ......and they think that it's old stadiums that are keeping people away from games. Well they need to take a look at their ethics and ask why former followers have given up on the game. Grrrr!!!
I'm ok now rant over!!

| I can confirm that the RFL spreadsheet had Hudds in home and Cas in away strip last night after the game had finished. I can also confirm the the RFL have since changed this to Hudds away kit, Cas home kit today. This is what we are dealing with, the governing body running our sport. What a set of juankers!
Edit- And thanks to Firefox saving my browsing history I still have the old file just to prove I didn't read it wrong yesterday.

And if you want to get at the truth rather than bask in conspiracy theory ask your club whether they received the kit directive sent out by the operations department in mid May. And there you will see that the information that has now been posted is correct: Giants alternate and Tigers principal.
Unless Cas have dodgy internet connections then the club got the directive and someone failed to read it and THEN your kit people failed to take 2 kits to games as required. The RFL cock up was a failure to update their own systems.

And if you owned your ground you wouldn't have been told to vacate by your football masters. Wouldn't have been a mix up then, but hey ho shiny stadiums and all. Doesn't matter if you own them maybe that should come up in the sl licenses own your ground get a bonus point.

Do you have evidence that Castleford received and acknowledged that email? And that the RFL checked to ensure the information had got through?
Thought not.

I don't think this is a sport any more. In fact it's reminding me a lot of WWE these days. I wonder who's booked to win our game down t'lane next week...

I assume your post is a send up - you can't really be that dumb?
First :At the moment the galpharm is basically 60% owned by davy and 40% owned by the council. In time davy will sell 40% to Town. Even when that happens the enduring contract created when the stadium was built will protect all 3 parties. The contract runs for over100 years
Second:the new playing surface includes 'artificial grass' plus real grass grown from seeds. These seeds need maximum sunlight to grow best and that occurs in.....June and July so sadly your childlike theory is nonsense.
Third: If the game was played at the Galpharm the Giants would still have requested the alternate kit - this being part of an agreement to help out Cas back in February! the difference being that if Cas had turned up at the galpharm with the wrong kit they could not have borrowed Giants shirts for the game.
other than those glaring inaccuracies your post is fine.

You are getting desperate. Ask Cas if they got the directive in mid may. The Giants CEO has spelt it out in detail. if Thewlis is wrong why doesn't Wright put the Cas case. his silence is deafening.
And if they got no emails why did Cas fail to take 2 kits as the rules require.

I'm not desperate in the slightest, but as you profess to be all seeing and all knowing perhaps you can answer those questions and clear things up. My point however still stands and was merely to highlight the fact that there may have been an error in communication somewhere. It's apparent that the clubs and the match officials haven't communicated with eachother prior to the match which demonstrates a complete lack of professionalism in all cases.
What doesn't make sense to me is why both teams only had one kit - Cas didn't have both (as the rules require) but neither did Huddersfield, despite being at 'home'. One has to assume that a home team will have access to both kits and therefore be easily able to change should a situation like this arise - clearly had the game been played at the Galpharm this would've been the case.
Also, what bearing does the game at Cas have on this one? The kits for that game were switched but that doesn't automatically mean that the original directives are switched for the reverse fixture too. Communication once again - it's fallen apart quite alarmingly somewhere.

[Where is the lack of professionalism by the Giants? They help out Cas in Feb. Agree a reciprocal deal for the return game - if you do not want to believe this...don't. The Giants get the mid may directive that clearly states the alternate kit and have it at the game. If Cas did not get the directive then Wright can go public and simply explain why they did not take 2 kits as required.
What doesn't make sense to me is why both teams only had one kit - Cas didn't have both (as the rules require) but neither did Huddersfield, despite being at 'home'. One has to assume that a home team will have access to both kits and therefore be easily able to change should a situation like this arise - clearly had the game been played at the Galpharm this would've been the case.
[Giants did not need 2 kits. they knew the kit they were wearing and the RFL confirmed this in the directive + Bentham did also. Why shoud anyone else have to jump through hoops because Cas fully or partially cocked up?
Also, what bearing does the game at Cas have on this one? The kits for that game were switched but that doesn't automatically mean that the original directives are switched for the reverse fixture too. Communication once again - it's fallen apart quite alarmingly somewhere.
[First the switch in Feb shows that alternate kits may be worn at home. Second it links with the explanation that at the return game there was an agreement to reciprocate - as i say if you want to deny this, go ahead. third the problem with comunication is either between the RFL and Cas or within cas. the Giants were crystal clear on the issue.
