Well you can only compare like for like. as there is no standing at Huddersfield you have to compare the seating prices. that is logically and the prices are facts.
So is the issue that £20 is too much which would rule you out of most SL grounds as that is the going rate.
Or is it that you dont want to sit at a ground which would rule you out of Wigan and Hull Fc as well.
It would seem that your reason for not going was nothing to do with the extra £2 cost. that is fine but do not use a spurious arguement about cost or Huddersfield being expensive as being the reason you did not go.

| I enjoyed listening to the supporter with the Klaxon, followed by total silence.
The 1st try was an obvious forward pass, shame to linesman, who was directly inline didn’t flag it. How much do they get paid for doing diddly squat?

Maybe so, but they have picked argueably the two worst games of the week. If Quins get within 40 of Saints tonight I will be amazed.

You are right, £2 is not the reason as its neither here nor there, though I havent found £20 to be the going rate this year, except at Wakefield. Couldnt make Hull due to work and I think its £20 there.
Huddersfield isnt like Wigan or Hull though, they have the same capacity but their are an extra 10 000 people rather than empty seats. Its difficult to describe accurately, but I dont go to Huddersfield because Ive rarely enjoyed going there. And dont say its 'cos we lose, I support Cas, we have lost in many places Ive still enjoyed going!!!!!

Its overpriced to go in and park and it feels like your watching a curtain raiser their because the large stadium kills any prospect of atmosphere. I also have no feelings at all for Huddersfield. I neither have a soft spot nor love to hate them, they are just a club.
Add those two together and I, like many others I know, pick Huddersfield away as "one to miss."'"
Thanks for that. What is your favourite colour?

Those who often read my posts, mainly on the Cas board will know its not my style to whinge. No point and I always like to find the positive.
Losing has nothing to do with the fact I didnt go to Huddersfield, I stated earlier why I didnt go.
Many seem to think my comments are an attack on Huddersfield, again not the case. Those with a bit more sense might see that when people comment, sometimes there is logic in what they say. Many clubs play at grouds too big for them, but take measures to condense the crowd to make the atmosphere more intense etc... Pricing structures, or maybe even perceptions of pricing structures - I went to Huddersfeild two years ago and felt ripped off, yet it doesnt seem to be the case now, could greater awareness of pricing be on club websites perhaps?? Who knows?
But its nonsense to just brush it off as a "whinge" - couldnt be further from the truth.
Perhaps your those many Huddersfield fans who started watching in 2006?
Bet theres a bite!

| Your right it wasnt a great crowd. Thats what happens when you play on Friday nights though, people do other stuff instead.
Certainly the 1000 or so that came from Cas last year had other things to do.
Like whinge about how bad their team is.

| Just a couple of comments from reading this thread:
I don't know why people still think a ball steal by a defending player in their in-goal area should result in a penalty try. The decision in this situation has been a penalty to the attacking team 10m out for the last 3 seasons.
With regards to opinions about boring rugby, Huddersfield did used to play boring rugby but that's not the case any more. I actually find them quite an entertaining side to watch these days. For some bizarre reason this year Cas are trying to play boring rugby and it doesn't suit us and we aren't any good at it - we need to go back to accepting our defence is crap and trying to score more points than the other team like we did last season. For anyone wanting boring rugby I'd suggest Harlequins, Bradford or Crusaders.

why?
because the game was formed over a 100 years ago in a hotel in our town does that mean that everyone in huddersfield should want to spend friday nights at a rugby match that they can watch for free on tv anyway if they so wished?
im presuming by your notion that rugby RUFC are the best supported union club then?
oh and code 13,like me, is one of the "Fartown 500"
