| You don't understand, do you. If you did, you wouldn't have posted that.
Fartown was not just a stadium. Fartown was, and still is, a place.

Nowt, as long as you keep supporting them you can call them what you like. Fartown has grown on me now and I also use it, but I would say I use Giants equally.

Just don't seem very manly to be singing it at a rugby match IMO. It's a bit..you know...a bit sap.

It was a stadium ten years ago.
Wigan fans don't go around shouting "come on central Park."
The last 30 years at Fartown were crap. Time to move on'"
Get out

| My point is Fartown is the past and the club should look forward.
People don't like change, fair enough but you can't hold on to the past forever.

| Let's forget the historical importance of this club, Birthplace of Rugby League, St George Hotel, forget it chuck out the old and bring in the new, just like the throw away society we live in

| Fartown will only die out when the generations who were brought up on the old terraces at Fartown depart this mortal coil.
Giants is purely a merchandising feature.
Fartown is the history of the club let us not forget.

It will never die out as long as there is a club in Huddersfield. The younger fans learn about our history from the existing fans and are already chanting the name at every game.
Long live Fartown.

Totally agree.
FARTOWN!!! FARTOWN!!!
I have always known the club as Fartown, still call it Fartown, always will. Someone telling me to forget my club's history and the memories that have gone before under the Fartown banner is not going to make me do it...
