so you expect a club who have prob never brought more than 500 to treble their away following just because it's £9 cheaper? get real.

by your logic,supposing we offer the same discounts at our place and wigan bring 6,000 would that be pathetic also?

plank!

and get 12 kids to bang a tin drum aimlessly then your talking

crazy isn't it?

having a big support would be nice, ( ours has improved more than any other SL club last few years ) but having a good team is the way to win trophies.

unfortunately our good team didn't turn up last night

Lets be honest, if Hudds suddenly got attendances like ours everyone would slate them for glory hunting

Their support is increasing gradually, give them a break people. If clubs like Castleford, Wakefield, Crusaders and Harlequins followed suit then RL would be in a much stronger position in Britain.

Castleford have a higher average attendance than the Giants........fact

My post wasnt purely about attendances, I mean growing as a club over-all. Cas are doing well with producing good youngsters but how much are your attendances actually increasing? And as for performances on the pitch there are no real improvements ala Huddersfield YET. FWIW I think Cas will be the next club to take that step forward.

So what's all this Brigantes and Ultras all about then.



Is it supposed to lead to lots of singing ?



Could someone please explain

it all depends on our stadium development. 7267 this year compared to 6616 last year. wire,bulls , saints & hull fc still to come so that may increase

one of our bigger problems with average crowd figures is that out of all the heartland clubs, we dont have a natural big local rivarly with anyone, ( halifax are our traditional rivals ) therefore we lose out in the big derby clashes which more often than not attract big crowds.

cas are very similar to us as a club, and their crowds are certainly admirable.but again, unlike us, cas are a traditional top flight club with a decent hardcore supporter base to build on.

I don't see why this thread has turned into an attendance debate. But, as far as i see it, all of us talking on this thread went to the game yesterday. Therefore, we did our bit correctly and actually went to the game, so credit to the huddersfield fans that did. However, calling the people on this thread for not bringing fans is not their fault, you can't execpt them to knock on every house in Huddersfield and force them to buy a ticket. Collectively, as a club, Huddersfield have a problem with support considering they are now trophy contenders, but as i said, the majority of people on these forums attend the majority of the games. End of attendance debate?

it seems to be in effect more at away games, like Saints last week. its harder at home due to everyone being sat in different stands



but the flags across the top of the South Stand are done by the Brigantes, and the flags at the bottom of the South what were being waved. Theres usually at least 5 or 6 up rather than 4 but depends who is available to wave.

So it's in essence flags and singing.



Hilarious
