| Lets not forget the outstanding backing these same fans of ours provided in the Leeds match. The fact that the outcome of our match was easily predictable from early on contributed to the absence of more singing. Our fans can and do give fantastic support, but we choose our moments to do so.
lifting the team when they really need it is surely the most important thing. There were some fine moments where we were in reserved and a couple of chants: "Fartown", "Broughy for England" and indeed "Broughy for Scotland!"

| I think we did arrange an area for us all to sit in and we all did, no different to last year where we all occupied the same area. There was room for others to join us just as usual with our experiences of crowd behaviour they see the first few rows around the vomitories full they fail to see beyond these areas. A bain of crowd management strategies is unreserved seating where the populous refuse to budge beyond what they can see, it happens all the time at our own stadium and why many away fans say they filled a stand yet they only judge by the nearest echelons of the vomitory so say it's full yet it's no where near full near the bottom or wide areas of the stand. Those few that stood on their own could easily have been occupied in those middle sections.

| in a stadium like that i dont buy that if you dont sit in the middle your not gonna get a good view because basically you can get a good view where ever you sit hence why all the other fans sat together i doubt they would sit there if they couldnt see the game well.
if we was to sit in one of the corners n let who ever wants a better view sit closer to the half way line maybe at the 30 at least then they will be a few blokes away and might be able to rack up an atmosphere ?

| I went to the Etihad to see the Giants game and saw most of the Salford one too. I'm what people on here call the 'old brigade' and as everyone on here is entitled to an opinion here is mine for what it's worth !!!
If people want to congregate and chant and sing great get on with it. If people don't then don't DISS them they support the Giants have done for a very long time in a lot of cases and should be allowed to support in their own way !!!
The issue of support goes back a long long way when Leeds and Bradford expanded their fan base into Huddersfield however support is slowly returning but needs a trophy to speed up the growth.
There was a good turn out of huddersfield fans as there has been most away matches this season I've only missed the one in France and the 'car full' troll is getting tiresome as our away support has grown significantly.
In these hard times most of the teams who have come to the JS this season especially the two Hull sides have brought far less supporters hence the home gate situation where our support has held and not grown.
So lets all enjoy this great team we have I don't DISS anyone who supports we choose how we want to let's just be glad we are there to see these good times cos trust me a lot of people didn't see the bad ones which make these times so good.
15 years ago who would have thought we would do Bradford 42-6 one week then Saints would be given a 8.5 point start against us the following trust me these are very happy days and we should not get involved fratching amongst ourselves it's madness !!!!
