To be honest if its going to happen these things happen naturally and clubs trying to "manufacture" something does not tend to work.

| Yeah, I'm generally wary of manufactured areas. That being said if the club did trial it for one match, I'd go into that area and give it a try.
I'd say it's more likely to work with Giants than with Town, or footy in general. Not really sure why I think that, but....
The club should maybe try and engage with the fan base on matchday to generate discussion and gauge reaction.
It would be relatively easy to flyer every attendee at a home match about trialling at a future home match. Just earmark one match and give it a go. Back it up with website and on pitch announcement etc.
Doesn't have to behind the sticks, but I'd imagine easier to make an impression in that area, as the lower bank quite compact. Not a great view though and open to the elements, but maybe worth a shout?
All that said, I've a feeling that atmosphere is going to improve this season and on anyway. Away following has certainly grown in the short time that I've been actively following giants (4/5 years). And I think with what KD and PA are building, the home atmosphere will improve naturally.

| nope, definately not going in the FM lower,its a poor view even when stood up.
i think town have the same problem we have, they have tried many so called singing area's and none have really worked, i just dont think they have enough people wanting to sing and chant at games,but huddersfield isn't alone, the demographics of football and rugby supporters has changed now, and the majority just want to sit and watch the game.

| Why would the club need to manufacture an area? There is enough space on the stadium for people to congregate to sing. We don't sell out seats and there is plenty of space in the main stands.
Fact is, people don't want to leave 'their view'.

We have been through this so many times. If folk want to sing and sit together they can - as said above there is plenty of room.
