Shane Cartwright was the lucky winner and castlefordtigers.com caught up with him to find out what his plans with the shirt were.

“I’ve got a bit of a man cave type bar thing at home so it will go in there with a couple of others bits such as a signed ball or boots that I’ve collected, I think it will go really nicely!”

Over 86% of the supporters who have responded to date have kept their money in the club and Shane was amongst those fans who have kindly chosen to do so. For him, he was fortunate enough to be in a position to do that and made his choice after being a fan of Castleford Tigers for quite a long time.

“All my life really, I started playing rugby when I was about five or six, so twenty odd years I’ve been a fan of the club.

“I was in a fortunate position where I carried on working through the lockdown and so I thought it was something I could do to financially help the club really.

“It’s such a big part of the town and watching the rugby together is how a lot of me and my mates get together usually, not now at the moment obviously, but we meet up and have a laugh. I think it’s important for everybody in the community really.”

2020 Season Ticket holders can make their choice and find out all the key information regarding their options by visiting castlefordtigers.com/ReadyToRoar before midnight on Sunday, 27th September.
