Think there's going to be a new gantry made at the back of the Kilner stand and a number of new positions created for camera's. Anyone who sits right at the back of the Kilner might have to move for the construction.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

As a Wigan fan, I think it will benefit Huddersfield Giants. Firstly the pitch will have to be up to a certain standard and the football club will pay for it.
There will be less games played, nineteen as opposed to twenty three, plus later entry into the cup competitions and no playoffs.
The football fixtures will have been sorted in July so with a bit of planning there should be few, if any fixture clashes.
Who owns the stadium?
The only downside is that you may lose a few fans, or conversely some of the more sensible football fans may decide that the exorbitant Premiership prices are not good value and may decide to spend their money on the Giants.

They've already sold 15,000 season tickets for next year at a cheap price. The st will be £199 next season - and for loyal fans whove been holders for a while just £100 |

The thing is though, Whatever your thoughts about Town are ( I don't have any either way except I'm glad they got where they want to be ) Nobody can really dispute they have done well as a club and now they should reap the benefit, I should think the stadium will be full every home game.

Totally agree I think it's fantastic to have a Super League and Premier League team in Huddersfield. Town have sold 17.5K season tickets and sales were suspended in April so I guess it will be full every game. |

| Quote: GIANT DAZ "Firstly, i'm not a Town fan, they are an on field rival of my team so i won't be congratulating them on their achievement, even more so as my team we're beaten by them but i have friends who are and have been Town fans all their lives and don't have a 'premiership' team to fall back on when Town aren't doing so well as a majority do, for them i'm delighted and hope they had a great day and enjoy next season!!
They reckon Town will pocket around £200million just for being in the Premiership, sponsorship, media attention, hospitality, merchandise etc will all, i imagine witness a huge rise.
Of course there will also be the issues of matches having to be moved, playing second fiddle to the PL, potentially losing more fans, definitely losing the potential floating sports fan in the town, local businesses preferring to be associated with a Premiership team etc.
I've seen stuff saying it will be a huge boost to the town to have a Premier league team so will Town being in the greedy league be a good or a bad thing for the Giants?'"
Cannot see this happening. I am a Giants Sponsor and have no intention of moving my sponsorship money to Town and I'm pretty sure others will be the same because if you're a Giant you're a Giant. But I went to Wembley and have been buzzing all week about Town being in the Premier League because I'm a Huddersfield sports fan. |
