1st Fartown game : sometime around 1977
Favourite Current Player : Fooey
Favourite All time player : Wally Gibson.
Favourite Away trip : Batley for sentimental reasons lol
Best moment watching Fartown : singing Abide with me at the 2 cup finals - this will only be beaten by watching us lift the cup. it used to be kick off of game one, season one in SL, 14k in the Galpharm and we were back.
Worst woment: The Merger.
Best game seen : Semi-final win over Leeds at Odsal.
Worst game seen : Too many to choose from our first stint in SL. But a dour midweek game against Quins at the Gapharm in miserable cold rain. Two terrible teams playing terribly in terrible weather and I wondered why the hell I was there. And we lost.

| Name
Fav players : Wally Gibson, Dean Hanger and Arnold (terminator) Lomax, His hands were like shovels.
Funniest moment : Bloke (to protect his name) falling through toilet roof at Cas
Deserving of special mention : Ken Davy = God. And special thanks to Alex Murphy after whom I named my son. A legend who awakened this sleeping Giant.

| Name:Martyn
Age: 37
Lives: Lindley
Occupation: Head of IT
Family: Married , 2 boys (3 and 1)
Usual space: Two rows infront of Daz
1st Fartown game :
When Danny Russell first signed for the Giants he was sat in the Spotted Cow on his own and we got chatting, a few beers later we were in town with a few of the players - didnt know them from Adam! I then worked for Perrys and used to get free tickets and ended up bumping into him post match and put 2 and 2 together, ended up on a few post games nights out! Got back into Giants in 2006 when I ended up on here and decided to meet up pre-match with a lad called Smiler who used to Moderate the site and a few of the posters.
Favourite Current Player : Eorl, McGillvary
Favourite All time player : Brad Drew
Favourite Away trip : Warrington or Castleford! Both welcoming people and are happy to share a beer and a chat.
Best moment watching Fartown : The friends I have through rugby. Paul, Fiona, Graham, Andrew, Darren, Martin, Craig, Jonny, Dan and his family, Owen and maybe H. We've had some great laughs.
Worst moment: Sorting some lout out at Wakefield who thought it was fair game to push around an old guy who was supporting the Giants.
Best game seen : 2006 Semi Final v Leeds - We went thinking we would never win and as soon as the game kicked off and Peacock knocked on I thought we could win in - also it's the first (and last) time I've used Cockneys Clown hat as a beer holder and the slowest bus in the world getting back to Huddersfield with a full bladder.
Worst game seen : In 2008 we were nilled twice. Catalans and Quins away. I was at both games. I would put the 48-0 by Catalans higher than the 24-0 at Quins though!

Age: 46
Lives: Durham
Occupation: Family Court advisor
Family: married 3 kids - Michael 15, Anya ( named after Anyanka the revenge demon in buffy the vampire slayer) 7, Liam 4
Usual space: Riverside stand near the front
1st Fartown game : circa 1976 no idea against whom.
Favourite Current Player : Luke O'Donnell/Keith Mason
Favourite All time player : Steve Lyons
Favourite Away trip : Cas ( or any game against Wigan or Bradford when we win).
Best moment watching Fartown : Beating saints in the CC semi.
Worst woment: 10 minutes into the CC final at wembley. Wirescored off a knock on and we had a try turned down. At that point i said to the family it is not going to be our day. I hated Wembley and will never go back there again.
Best game seen : Beating Wigan 9 points to 8 circa 1981 when 6 players were sent off. Never did a team deserve to win a game more than that day. Wigan that day were a disgrace and were the dirtiest team i have ever seen play ( TBF RL at that time was just legalised thuggery).
Worst game seen : Any of the 50 , 60, 70 80 point maulings i have seen over the years.

| Name; Carl
Age; 26
Lives; Longwood
Occupation; Mechanical Engineer
Family; Young free 'n single
Usual space; Between 20 & 40 line half way up Kilner bank
First game; Early to mid 90's was only a nipper so can't really remember much.
Favourite current player; Kevin Brown
Favourite all time player; Brett Hodgson
Favourite away trip; Wigan
Best moment: When Brett Hodgson stepped James Graham in the CC Semi-final and punted down field for Stephen Wild to chase - magic!
Worst moment: Probably the 60-4 thumping from Warrington last year, should have been a tight game - instead Warrington played at a completely different pace to us.
