We took more fans they did lol

We refuse to accept that Hull is part of Yorkshire - it's more like a parasite leaching from all the Yorkshirey goodness.

(Actually there are 3 teams from Yorkshire left in the competition)

I also refuse to accept hull as part of Yorkshire - it's humberside.
I was referring to Sheffield. But then I suppose Huddersfield and Sheffield are actually one club .... So actually yeah- one team from Yorkshire!

i could be wrong but everytime we win a big game i believe our crowd always gets a mention i thought games was won on the pitch not off it ?

I know it's a long, long time ago, but...

15th. March 1953: 3rd. round Challenge Cup, Bradford N. v. Huddersfield, Odsal. Att. 69,128.
March 1953 (exact date not to hand): semi-final Challenge Cup, Huddersfield v Wigan, Odsal. Att. 88,000.
25th. April 1953: final Challenge Cup, Huddersfield v. St. Helens, Wembley. Att. 89,588.

I wonder how many other clubs have had a higher total attendance over 3 rounds of the cup (maybe leaving out of account the 1954 final replay).

To complete the picture the gates for Huddersfield's earlier rounds were:
1st. round, 1st leg: v. Castleford at Fartown: att. 14,598
" 2nd. leg: " Wheldon Rd.: att. 5,000
2nd. round: v. Barrow at Fartown: att. 25,608.

Thinking about it how many other clubs have had a higher total gates over a whole cup campaign? (Pity about the poor turn out at Cas..)

By the way St. Helens' aggregate attendance in the cup in that year, according to my calculations, was 231,000, compared to Fartown's (sorry, Huddersfield's) 292,000.

I realise of course that it's just one year and that the weather, quality of opponents etc. can affect gates, but I'd be interested to see how many times those figures have been bettered.

To change tack slightly, and forgive me if I missed it, but given the pretty detailed and learned discussion on aspects of macroeconomics on (I think) another thread I was surprised there was no application of one of the basic principles of microeconomics to the Giants' pricing policy for last Saturdays match - that is price elasticity of demand.

Humberside hasn't existed since 1996. The name only remains on the fire service, police and radio station
