Packed in already at Cas.

I know he has itchy feet but jeez.

Sounds like he's meeting obstacles and he's not exactly holding back in the release. I said at the time he replaced Wright that it could only be a good thing for Cas. It seems bizarre he's left so early into the role.

"The club requires significant investment to continue..."

I would find that quote slightly worrying if I was a Cas fan.

Doesn't sound very good does it?

Sounds ominous, hope they get the investment they need.

That's a very nice way of putting it.

It can't have been easy for him to walk away so easily. Isn't he from Castleford and a Castleford fan?

I've got alot of respect for Ferres but it seems the BOD didn't share his ambition. I can't imagine there would be too many who would want that job!!

Oh dear - that's all they needed.

I'm surprised they've published that release in full to be honest - it doesn't paint a very optimistic picture of the club; if I was a fan, I'd be worried.

Old Dicky better dig his hard hat out for Sunday.

While ever he’s behind the scenes any CEO is going to struggle.

Think Big alf would be an ideal replacement

Problem is Mr Wright is still pulling the strings with Jack fully no ambition , Ferres as seen the level of commitment from these two, and feels the club will not move forward with the old bod...

Thats just about bang-on.

Yes he is from Cas but that tends not to mean a great deal to these guys, take JK as an example. I think you have it right in your second paragraph.

Wow this a major blow for them, it doesn't sound good. Ferris appeared to be doing a good job. Wonder if Fozzard will follow?

Tigerade I said it years ago I will say it now, the OLD bod need to go all together for the Cas club to move forward..

He started on the ale early today!

Not really that surprising, the rumours coming out of Cas give the impression that they are heading up a particular type of waterway without any guiding implements.

Wakey could do a lot worse than offer Ferres a place on the board, as that mentor role to Jim & Davide that i've mentioned before. A couple of years working under him would be fantastic firstly for the club but even more so for their careers. They would learn plenty about how to be a sports adminstrator. I'd be offering Fozzard a job in the commercial office as well if he quits, his enthusiasm is infectious. Doubt either would happen but it would be plus points all round if it did.

I see some Cas fans are taking about administration as a possibility to rid themselves of their current board. If this were to happen I wonder what the chances are that Ferres comes back with France as the backer to rescue the club.

Nah, I like Steve but that boat has sailed twice already. Whilst frankly if Elston and Longo don't know their stuff by now they never will, they are not novices anymore. Also I'd suggest AG is far to hands on for SF to cope with.

The administrator takes everything and he would start with their ground.
Best thing they can do is accept their fate and join the championship where they really belong.

Might be wrong , but heard today that Eric France had gone bust ( not for the first time mind ).

Didn't they sell the business last year?

www.castigers.com/article.php?id=2879 Seems to be at odds with Ferres' statement.

Not really, I mean he isn't going to agree with ferris is he? Depends who you believe doesn't it
