I disagree. My tag prevents me leaving the country.

ok apart from the criminals amongst us !

Or those with restraining orders....
Or those without Passports....
Or those who are illegal immigrants and may not get back into the country
Or those who make a career out of impersonating a certain Bin Laden.

If Code 13 is a part time supporter for not making a game on a tuesday night, what does that make me, for not maknig a game in 5 years

a glory hunter sam

Obviously

The days of going to games at Featherstone and Whitehaven mean nowt

or sheffield for a home match

Yes i am a real fan and proud off it too, its like taking 1 step forward and 9 steps back with some off you lot on here, can you not see 6000 fans for a top team is Rubbish and the first thing you do is defend the fans for not turning up. I am also a dedicated town fan so i see things differently to most giants fans, football fans are very critical when fams do not turn up to games SO am i, just because you dont turn up for what ever reason does not mean you can defend the thousands who dont do. If you cant see that then our fan base will never grow and we will continually get comments from other teams supporters regarding our fan base. Im sorry but in my opinion if you wernt there you have not say on what i think. Go to the games then i will have the time for you. I know a fan on here lives in portugal and comes to as many as he can, which i think is great, but if you live in Huddersfield and dont have kids (which is a rubbish excuse) then your excuse sucks.

It is only in the last 5 to 6 years that the Giants have started to build a fan base. Previously it was very difficult as we were languishing at the foot of the table, and nobody wants to be associated with a mostly losing side.
To be fair we have done very well in a short space of time. Take St.Helens for instance, their home crowds are not much better than ours and they have been a very successful for many years.
And don`t Town have reduced gates on midweek games compared to Saturday/Sunday games.???

Theres no public transport between Toronto and Huddersfield, is my excuse ok sir? I haven't been to a game in 5 years, so I guess that doesn't make me a real fan, eh?

Not everyone has to attend games, it doesn't make them any less fans. Sometimes real life takes a front seat to rugby, and people have other priorities and prior engagements that theyw ould much rather do. Again, this doesn't make them any less of a Huddersfield fan than it does you or me.

I remember going to games where we would get 2500 on a sunday, so to now be getting over 6000 on a tuesday night is fantastic

Seriously?

Define a real fan for me 1st before i reply to that load of old bollox

Yes, 6000 for a top team is rubbish ......how about we wait to see what our crowds are after we've won a trophy before we start comparing our crowds to 'top teams' .....i dont know if you can remember what Bradford, Warrington, Leeds crowds etc were before they won trophies but i can tell you they werent anywhere near as good as what they are now !!
Success brings fans .....simple, we haven't had any success of note since the early 60's so the fans that are new to the club have been attracted by other means rather than success.
To go from 3-4000 average crowds to nearly 9,000 in 6 or 7 years on the back of winning nothing is excellent stuff - yes we have had 2 cup final appearances in that time which will have brought a few fans, imagine if we had won 1 or even both of them what our crowds will be.
all the current top supported clubs have one thing in common that we dont - SILVERWARE and until we get we wont see a sudden huge rise in our gates.
10,000 new people are not suddenly going to start coming to the games because they pick a paper up and see the league table.
And the people that are currently fans do not need to justify missing the odd game when they have been here for a few years now.!

BTW Eaton , are you off to Catalans this weekend?
