Whenever possible (pitch concerns) just have the some (4) local juniors teams having a 6 a side match at either ends of the pitch, bound to pull in a few more punters as parents would want to watch their kids.

Local teams. school teams 50 free tickets for the competing schools. If 50 new people come and two of those enjoys it they keep coming back that is a result.

Local dance groups . Usually for every entertainer there is one or two family members who wants to come and watch.

The on field product at the minute is good. Get the entertainment right and the atmosphere and the punters will come and stay.

I reckon we could have nude dancers and give away £10 notes and the folk of hudds would still stay away!
The whole match experience is an important one- they put on stuff before the game- why not after? When the kids play it's usually prematch not half time- which personally I don't like cause the only ones in the place are us parents! Do it at half time for me- get other youngsters seeing kids their age playing- and hopefully encourage them to.

Think Rickys has the strippers market covered.....never been given a free tenner mind you icon_evil.gif

Its definetly an are we can target as with Under 12s free there is encouragement to get them back but we already do so so is it an area that has more potential or doing it in a different way (perhaps a season long tournament where winning sides return for the later rounds adding an extra edge and perhaps Giants players coaching sessions for the eventual winners).

To be honest it doesn't really affect me as i'm either in the concourse or stood up talking to my mates and hardly ever notice what goes on at half-time plus before i know it the teams are back out anyway.

One thing i definitely wouldn't wanna go back to though is them god awful young x-factor or whatever its called wannabee singers who sounds awful and in my opinion keep people away rather than bringing the, in !.

HUDDERSFIELD - THE BIRTHPLACE OF RUGBY LEAGUE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_43854.jpg



half time doesnt really bother me either.

but i suppose Big G doing something daft on the pitch like a dizz kick gets some interest ...we were doing something similiar last season and if the person kicked a goal they won tickets to the grand final?

seems to have been stopped, but think alot has to do with the condition of the pitch at the moment, even the cheerleaders arent allowed on it!

on the cheerleaders...why is it always just one side that gets them??? i know more kids are over in the other stand but i think there should be some on the other side too, seems like we are the poor relation most of the time?! sort it out.

Ironic that we talk about cheerleaders in the days leading up to Wakefield away as they have hundreds of them, like Llanelli used to half an outside half factory Wakey must have one dolling out Cheerleaders.

On the subject of the dancers why do they perform to the empty seats of the directors instead of the "popular" side?

Meh, Im not interested in any entertainment that isn't the game

Spend less on half time entertainment and sell food and drink a bit cheaper might solve the problem by getting people queueing for concessions.
