Castleford Tigers boss reveals latest injury blow after victory at Hull FC
Castleford Tigers head coach Craig Lingard has revealed his side’s latest injury blow in a busy season for the medical team.
The Tigers confirmed that they can’t finish any lower than 10th in the league with a 39-20 victory over Hull FC, and consigned the Black and Whites to the bottom two.
It was a low-quality fixture, and the Tigers should have had the game wrapped up before two Hull FC tries before half-time, and early in the second-half, yellow cards for Sylvester Namo and Liam Horne, made it a little close for comfort.

It was a low-quality fixture, and the Tigers should have had the game wrapped up before two Hull FC tries before half-time, and early in the second-half, yellow cards for Sylvester Namo and Liam Horne, made it a little close for comfort.
However, the Tigers confirmed their victory through tries from Tex Hoy and Namo, and a drop-goal from Milnes, to make it, ultimately, a good day at the MKM Stadium.
It did, however, show just how poor Hull FC are at the moment, and they remain on six points – two fewer than Wakefield Trinity managed last season in their rock-bottom relegation season.
