It makes me laugh, I left 5 mins before the end on Thursday and to the morons who call people like me non supporters I'll share something !!!

I left home for work in Sunderland at 6.30am, drove from Sunderland to the JS and arrived at 6.30pm left the game 5 minutes early got back home to Barnsley at 10.30pm and was up and off to work at 6.30am and will have the same next Thursday distance driven 296 miles !!!!

That's less than when I went to Hull KR away and Wigan both over 300 miles the Hull KR nearer 400 miles !!!

So to all you self righteous 'we are the supporters' look in the mirror 'mate' and don't dog people off when you don't know the full story !!!!

Let other people support as they see fit I've been going 51 years missed one match in France this season and if I want to beat the traffic after my day/journey don't tell me I'm a non supporter did I see you at Bramley, Huyton, Blackpool Borough, Kent Invicta and many more when we lost every week ????

It amazes me when people criticise without knowledge but then it says an awful lot about them !!!

"With a reaping hook, Cronus lopped off his father's genitals and flung them into the sea. From the drops of blood that fell on the earth came the Giants.":3049.jpg



fartown since 1961

I can see why you're annoyed but don't let it get to you. Everybody thinks they are the greatest fan however many games they attend. I know I've been going longer than plenty here but I don't attend every game. Peoples circumstances change and so do their priorities. I couldn't care less what people think because I don't go to Catalan or London.
You pays your money and you takes your choice. Don't let some spotty little di@k who might have attended every game for three seasons wind you up just because you left early for one game. Life's too short to get wound up over things like this.

Congrats on your dedication to the cause though. That's some serious mileage, and cost.

Bring on Thursday. Peace. Raaay.

I don't think I'm the greatest fan far from it but I want the right to attend the games and be left in peace not having some dipstick tell me I'm not a fan when I go five minutes early to beat the traffic from a game that at 8-22 was long lost !!!

Maybe one of the reasons we don't get more is that we abuse our fans if they don't do what WE think is right !!!

I have had a season ticket since the days at Fartown as have many people I know but cos we don't sing and chant or leave five minutes early on the odd occasions we are 'not fit' to be supporters talk about a 'blinkered ' view !!!!!

I dont think it helps when we're losing .....funnily enough when we're winning these shouts aren't heard it seems to be when we've lost a game, maybe the ones who do it are just peed off cos we've lost so take it out on those leaving early as they see them as deserting the team etc i dunno ?.

There's people round me who regularly leave early winning or losing, that's there choice to, if its a close game then they may miss the winning try or something but they choose to ....it is wrong though ateotd people pay their money and therefor have the right to decide when they leave.

There is no such thing as a 'better' fan in my eyes, everyone who comes to every is as equal as the one who picks and chooses as they are there for one thing only and that's to support the Giants.

Well Mr Tarbrush you are the exact specification of the idiot I was speaking about earlier 'abuse' the Fartown /Giants fans who turn up and maybe you'll be happy when there are 3,000 there.

If you are going to 'spout off' maybe a rant about the 'missing' 3,700 from the home match before may be far more appropriate !!

296 miles for a match is great going by fans of any sport but good god, do you have any regard for the environment? icon_wink.gif icon_wink.gif

I have no problem at all with anyone leaving early for whatever reason they have. What I have an issue with is some of the idiots who were sat around me being negative from the first whistle. 'Grix you're rubbish', 'don't know why I came they always choke in the big games', 'You can tell Wigan want it more', 'They need to start giving 100%'...I could go on, and this was the first 20mins so you can imagine what the rest of the game was like. I managed to shut them up for 5mins when I suggested maybe they should try supporting the team they'd paid to see but they soon started up again. And these aren't new fans. We only won the LLS 2 weeks before and they were celebrating and now apparently it 'means nothing'. I for one would be happy for a few less on the gate and just have those who really are there to SUPPORT the Giants.

A real shame that our own fans are abusing newbies & long time season ticket holders.

Sad indeed.

Yeah I think it's really sad that supporters of a club can't get together and support each in their own way !!

One thing I have noticed is that all clubs have issues not just the Huddersfield fans and mainly it's when a team loses. For example there's a Wigan thread Wane out,a Leeds thread McDermott out, a Hull thread Gentle out and that's Cup Finalists and the last Grand Final winners at least we haven't got there yet !!

How some of the current RL fans would have coped supporting Huddersfield in the dark days God only knows but then even if a team has not got the players it's easy to support your team provided they appear to give 100%.

But a rugby league fan has his moan goes home and comes back ready to support the following week and in reality doesn't give a monkey's what others say after all we just want a good honest performance win or lose !!!

Understand what? That our fans are good at getting on the backs of people whether it be on other boards, our own fans or players!
Plenty of us on here went to fartown. Plenty of memories good and bad from there but to be honest more to do with my grandad than the team. I look at things in a similar way to paul anderson. Personally I'm glad we've moved on!
