Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

Yeah, but we only reverse one fixture. Giants won't be home till the end of July. And Latics are Premier League!

Rarely does rugby league make the bbc news but you can bet your bottom dollar that it will make it in the morning. Utter bloody farce. Hope the rfl fine both teams for being bloody incompetent. :angry:
I expect the sponsors of Cas to be pretty pissed too!!

this is where RLFans comes in useful... all the muppets in one place...

Cas, are of course, blaming Hudds or RFL
Hudds, are of course, blaming Cas or RFL
Apparently, the MC was interviewed on Sky and said that Hudds should've been playing in Alternative and Cas in Principle - I can't see why this would be the case...
Also, apparently, Huddersfield cannot play in their principle strip at home when Sky are fliming due to some form of interferrance with the HD cameras.
Also, according to one guy, every team has to play a certain number of home games in their alternate kit to make things fair for the sponsors (erm, that's why you have away games, and Wigan are 100% priciple at home)

So, here's the action:

RFL fine and deduct 2 points from Huddersfield for not playing according to the pre-defined Kit Directive (published in February)
RFL fine and deduct 2 points from Huddersfield for not bringing secondary kit to an away game (as directed in the rules)
RFL fine and deduct 2 points from Castleford for not bringing secondary kit to an away game (as directed in the rules)
SKY refuse to show any Huddersfield home games because their home strip wasn't approved and causes interferance, and take Huddersfield to court for breach of contract

Cas did bring secondary kit, not unreasoably for an away game, but as Hudds home kit is muddy brown and Cas's home kit is gold, why was there an issue anyway?
