Somewhere in the dust of time rest the bones of the Galilean He who was spat upon. He whose face was marred beyond all human likeness Somewhere buried among the lies of the past rests the tomb of Yeshua Of he who was made God in a world without Hope. And when this son of Joseph is found. What then will the Church of Rome say? Prepare yourself for the day is coming. And men will say "Blessed are the wasted lives who perished in the flames of the holy war":

Quote: brearley84 "8k went to watch from town..i dont know what you was expecting??

we can only dream of 8k on a tuesday night for a run of the mill cup game.

saturdays league game will be a decent crowd too i would think prob a few will be going to watch that instead of coming to watch us friday night
But you can't compare numbers. Soccer is a massive market sport which attracts big crowds. The top club has a 75,000 average attendance, they even have people who buy tickets simply to have a ticket and then don't attend. The top club in RL attracts only 15-16,000. Towns average attendance last year would have made them one of the top three supported RL teams in this country.

Plus Town are one of only three league soccer clubs in the third most densely populated areas outside London. The other two, West Midlands and Greater Manchester, have 6 and 8 clubs respectively and Town had the lowest average attendance of any of the clubs from those areas currently playing in their division or higher. Town got promoted last year and saw their attendances increase by only approx 1,000 fans. That's an increase of about 7%, not much. In fact their crowds haven't increased much for 5 years despite an increasing feel good factor and a boom in general attendances.

The only way you could genuinely compare our crowds to Towns is as a proportion of the top clubs. Ours vary between about 40-50% of the top clubs. Towns are 20%. Town would need to be filling the stadium every week before you could begin to say their crowds were comparable to ours. They aren't.

It's about time we ended this "Huddersfield is a soccer town" myth. It isn't, it is a town that has been deprived of sporting success for many, many years and has whole generations of fans who either don't watch sport or support teams from outside the area.

Gees bit touchy aren't we. I couln't hear what the kids were singing hence the question. 'My take' was on a section of your audience not all of them yes every club has some undesirables I was passing comment on the number of younger kids throwing abuse etc. Makes you wonder where their parents are.

Quote: Conorgiantsfan "Until the shares issue is resolved, we're going to hover around 5,000-7,000. Those non-existent town fans garner much support.

Truth.'"


interesting about this shares issue, so if it the shares we given back what do you think out average would jump too?

5000-7000 is still pretty good from where we have come from in such a short space of time, we just beat ourselves up about it but need to remember what crowds we were getting at the start of super league and for the older ones at fartown!

Not touchy at all.
