If you care to check you will find I bemoaned the release of Mathers at the time and in playing terms have continued to question it's wisdom, nay sanity, ever since. The ball throwing after the first try appeared genuinely spontaneous but his antics after the second were OTT and looked deliberately inflammatory.That doesn't make him a bad man or a bad player, just a bad professional and criticising it doesn't make me 'cycloptic'.



I don't fully understand the Hudson reference. He was a Bradford player when banned for substance abuse during their pre-season so the link between the ban and taking our silver as you put it is unclear to me. You're right about the lack of class it reflected but my post was specific to Mathers and did not imply we were unafflicted by similar clots.

Hang on a minute isn't throwing the ball into the crowd a little different? It could have caused damage if it had hit someone, thats why it is an offense to do it. And for the record I was disgusted by the way he was treated by our fans. But just the same hope I never see the idiot in a Cas shirt again.

"[iRitchie Mathers is a c**t[/i" was the worst.

This exactly!



He celebrated a try. Big deal. Get over it Cas.

Let's just take a moment to remember who cast the first stone here.....Yes that's right it was Ian Millward on behalf of the Cas club.



Having treat the guy so badly, (and let's be honest they did) how can Cas expect the guy not to be p'd off! As I've said before, the way he was pushed out of the club would in any other business be grounds for a strong case being constructively dismissed. If any of us faced the same from our jobs, then I'd expect that our former employers wouldn't get much favour from us either. Given the chance to get one over on them, we probably would.



Also, no matter what a guy played like for us...why does that give a portion of the crowd the self proclaimed right to have a go at him each time he plays against us? Again let's have a moment of honesty between us Cas fans here, from the first time he stepped foot on the pitch against us during the early part of the year, the Cas fans were giving him grief. (And I do mean grief, not banter). That was well before any Twitter comments and stuff like that!

Treated him badly......according to Richie Mathers.



The club told him he was behind Owen in the pecking order and that he could stay and be back-up. Wakefield were interested at the time and so they gave him the option of going. As they didn't know what he was doing, they cut him out of the 'pitch' training but still let him do weights/gym work with the rest of the squad.



I can see why they'd do it. People need to realise there's two sides to every story and be objective in this.

None of which gives licence for a large section of the crowd to call him a c**t.

Did I say it did?

Nice exaggeration troll.







Keep buying the propaganda.

Eh?

Of course, we should all ignore the official statements from our respective clubs and instead listen to individuals like yourself who claim to have inside info. (Gentle going to Cas etc)



I'll stick to the "propaganda" thanks
