ANDY Lynch’s testimonial match between Castleford and the Bulls will go ahead as scheduled, despite severe storm damage at the Jungle.
The Princess Street stand will be closed due to problems caused by strong winds overnight on Friday and into the early hours of Saturday.
The Tigers have asked Bradford fans to use the Railway End of the ground with home supporters advised to use the Wheldon Road end.
Castleford said in a statement today: “Andy Lynch's testimonial match v Bradford Bulls will go ahead on Sunday 11th January KO 2.30pm despite over night wind damage to the Princess Street Stand.
“The Princess Street stand will be closed for this match and Bradford fans are advised to use Railway end, with Cas fans advised to use the Wheldon Road end.
