Jools, imagine for one second that the Giants had a ground like the Haliwell Jones. I am certain that the majority of our season ticket sales would be for the standing terrace down the side. At away matches, when there is a choice most of our fans choose to stand, probably because it is cheaper. If you do not believe it is reasonable to compare the cheapest admission price on offer you must be a politician!!!!!

Again to clarify there are not 3-4 more home fixtures next season, there is a guarantee of one more with a second if we finish top 4 (or 9th/10th but do not think I see that as value).

I repeat it may well be reality that we all have to dig a bit deeper to help Ken fund the club, but I still believe there is a risk the price hike reduces sales.

From a harsh point of view it's perhaps best for the Giants not to go

1. It's a lot of money for the club to recoup and let's not deny our marketing team is either terminally constricted or they really are useless

2. Let's be honest our form in high intensity games is not the best and a spanking at the hands of an Aussie team would be hard to recover from in terms of selling us to non converts

3. In continuing from 2 I'd rather see 3 English wins to boost the games profile and international setup - the clubs competing best represent that

4. Its a big pre-season distraction in this first year of a new league format, I'd rather see us start the season well and secure top 8

Most clubs use plastic cards now and not a bingo ticket booklet like something from the 50s but we are talking Huddersfield now, do you also include your turnstyle staff in your official attendances ?

He he, good one, bet you're writing the jokes for the crackers in Hull this year !!

I'm not from Hull. Just thought I'd pass comment on the unprovoked slander to a polite innocent question to someone from Hull by a dullard from gods waiting room.
