Castleford Tigers head coach Craig Lingard plans to savour an important win over Hull FC after experiencing some tough nights at Wheldon Road.
The Tigers ran in five tries against the beleaguered Black and Whites to move five points clear of their visitors and London Broncos at the bottom of Super League. The performance was in stark contrast to Castleford's last outing, a 60-4 drubbing by St Helens, the third occasion they have conceded 50 points or more at home. 'I've been sat here before when we've lost and sulked, moaned and pretty much cried so you've got to enjoy these wins,' said Lingard.
'It's about coming through the other side which I thought we did today.' The result extended Hull's losing run to 10 matches, leaving the club in danger of a straight shootout with London to avoid the wooden spoon. Interim boss Simon Grix was heartened by certain aspects of Hull's performance after sinking to a new low against the Broncos in their previous game.
