Embarrassing

Quote: poor lad! "So you're judging Huddersfield's crowds by how many empty seats there are as opposed to how many people are in the ground watching the game?
If Huddersfield played at Wakefield's run down little stadium, would your judgement still be the same?

The relative average crowds between Wakefield and Huddersfield, and relative league positions.

Since Huddersfield were promoted to SL in 2003 they have averaged a higher home crowd than Wakefield in 12 out of 17 seasons and that was including the "Glover years" when it widely thought, even by their own fans that their crowds were being "massaged" somewhat.
In the 17 seasons since Huddersfield won promotion to super league they have also finished higher than Wakefield in 11 of those seasons, reached 2 challenge cup finals and 2 play off semi finals.

Since 1996 Wakefield have accrued 419 points in regular round games, Huddersfield have accrued 498.

Wakefield have won 2 league titles to Huddersfield's 7
Wakefield have won 5 challenge cups, Huddersfield, 6
Wakefield have never won a "double", Huddersfield have done it twice
Wakefield have never won a "treble", Huddersfield have done it twice
Wakefield have never won "all 4 cups", Huddersfield were the second team to do it.
Wakefield have had points deducted twice in the SL era, one for a breach of salary cap, one for going into administration, Huddersfield have never breached the salary cap or gone into administration.
Wakefield's highest SL attendance was 11,00, Huddersfield's is 15,629

So i ask again, how do Wakefield fans have the nerve to mock other clubs and their support, especially Huddersfield?
Are Wakefield fans delusional?

If we had a sugar daddy, a football team to ponce off and a shiny new stadium laid on then we'd be able to press on as a club. Huddersfield have got everything set up for them to be successful but they still draw low crowds. They've also been relegated from SL which Wakey never have.

Wakey have never merged with another team, financially raped them and then binned them off without so much as a farewell.

Same with all these teams that have had Tesco build them a ground or the council stump up for first class facilities. Easy to look down on other clubs that dont have that and have to battle for every penny we can get.
