The positives are it's only a game, it's a sport, a chance to meet up with mates and have a laugh at the end of a week, it's not that important where folk need to almost cry themselves to sleep......if we lose we lose if we win, well we will have an extra beer to celebrate.

That's fair enough Daz, The Giants are obviously a big part of your social life, But you will find very few people who feel the same, They are a very minor part of a lot of peoples life, But we are all what we are, To me your attitude reflects that of the club, complete lack of ambition which everyone on this site knows deep down, seeing a win as some kind of bonus.
It's one of the reasons season tickets never increase, the other being a complete lack of style in their play, other than the odd game here and there. I Fear we will be one of the teams making up the numbers again, Not because of one game but because we don't have a serious S league squad, or we don't have anyone at the club who knows how to get them earning their money.

I’m not sure that’s going to convince a lot of folk-not everyone is there for the beer- nothing positive from the actual game then

As I have since the end of the last one. However I consider my post realistic after watching us ship 34 points in 28 minutes after pretty much having Hull on the rack.

In an odd way it wouldn’t have been as bad if Hull had got to 38-0 and we’d have got a couple of late consolation tries it’s the fact that the diagonal runs around the play the ball were working Hull were struggling with our pack and we started throwing the ball wide and coughing it up early in the tackle count why not stick to what had got us to 12-4 in the first place.

I would be satisfied with Stones promise of gradual improvement but last night wasn’t it just flatter to deceive and then give up when it got a bit tough.

If I was to really moan rather than be realistic it would be as follows

Walne lightweight

Smith not superleague standard

Macintosh abysmal both last night and against Dewsbury looked like a rabbit in the headlights the sight of Robbo, oh for him on the field, telling him what he should be doing after being out of position again says it all.

Brough past it needs to concentrate on his own game

Rankin not a stand off

Ormsby gone thank goodness

Leeming/ta’ai/ Mamo/Turner all under done our pre season doesn’t look to have worked

Symonds are we going to pay a player who isn’t playing

Stone makes the right noises but are we actually improving ?? Not anywhere I can see it looks like three years of treading water.

So there you are Giant Daz a dose of ultra realism I hope I’m wrong and we turn it around quick but I don’t see a burning drive anywhere that convinces me we will so I will support as I have done for many years sadly with no great expectation.

some of last nights results put ours in perspective abit !

at least we led at half time

obv looking for that 80 mins performance against warrington now

A post that some sums the attitude of the club unfortunately.

Who cares if we win or lose, who cares if we provide entertainment or value for money.

This post could have been written by the chief exec.

Still Daz and Thewlis will be able to turn around and blame the fans and the people if Huddersfield when it all falls apart

It's not just one game into the season that is so disappointing, it's just one big train crash after another over a few seasons! While Stone & Thewlis are at the helm, it's just going to be one defeat after another. No wonder The Huddersfield Examiner has lost interest as most of the public of Huddersfield have.

It’s not the losing that’s a problem. In the bad old days when we finished bottom year after year we were often losing by many points every week- but the lads had a dig. No one would ever have had a go at the likes of Reilly and Roarty. There just seems to be a lack of cameraderie In Our side- a lack of willingness to work FOR each other rather than just alongside each other. A coach can’t do anything about a playing squad he inherits in terms of ability- but he must be able to inspire his side and stone hasn’t improved that aspect. When things don’t go our way they all blame each other (especially brough) and start playing as individuals rather than as a team. I believe We have a sports psychologist on our board so why isn’t this problem going away???

Been paying Karl Morris 12k a year for last few years too but that hasn't yielded anything either

Let's face it the Huddersfield public lost interest about 40 odd years ago.

Sadly this is true. When Alex Murphy arrived we turned around the playing fortunes of the club very quickly, but those 20 dire years (70's and 80's) have left a much deeper impact with the fanbase. It seems that the missing generation of fans continues to haunt us today, whereas clubs like Hull KR and even Leigh take defeat and disappointment on the chin and come back the stronger our fanbase is as fickle as the winter sun. We have provided a winning team, (almost) silverware and top international players, and yet the people of Huddersfield simply will not turn up in the numbers we deserve.

I would love it to be different as i have watched and loved my team for some 25 years now, but the reality is the town doesn't want it, Mr Davey has thrown everything he can at it, and continues to give away season tickets at lower than market value for a good number of years in the hope of igniting the sport.. Maybe if we'd won at wembley.. but i don't think anything is good enough for the people of Huddersfield to support our great team.
