Bit naive of Wigan to presume that at £7.50 each some of our fans wouldn't be buying the groupon deal and pay £21 instead. Surely they would have expected that a national deal like this would have attracted visiting fans to the price too.
And for what its worth i'e been in the North at Wigan about 5 times so its not unusual for us to be in there.

I remember you thinking our support was traditionally poor a few short years ago and failing to open the away stand- which ended up with an extremely cramped section of the crowd and extremely busy stewards as they attempted to sort our the arguments that broke out over seating. You have since opened the away stand for Huddersfield- which you haven't done for other teams so your suggestion that we bring the third least number of fans is quite frankly trolling poop- but if it floats your boat...

The dealings I've had this week with Wigan ticket office is also quite frankly the least helpful and least knowledgeable (or contains the biggest liars) of all of those I have had to deal with over the years, (I've attended over 50 different stadia in the years I've been following Huddersfield through their many divisions) so it doesn't surprise me in the least that they don't have the common sense to make things easier for themselves by allowing away fans with east stand tickets to go with other away fans in the north stand- after all according to you we bring less than 200 fans in total anyway!

Didn't we have 500 last season in the North stand??? First game of the season as we got a few Wigan fans saying so as well as confirmation from the gate ticker! So where this poor attendance comes from is bewildering as we beat a few teams in terms of away attendance there! In fact we've had 3 seasons of decent following by our and their standards.

ES1 and 2 are sold out bar 1 odd empty seat, however there are plenty of seats in blocks ES3/4 so being a Wigan fan i'll gladly move there if they allocate me some crap seats.

Very much looking forward to this one though, should be a good atmosphere in the East stand... Will look strange with ES1 & 2 sold out when it's usually empty!!

Good rant, but aim it at a Wigan fan next time

i remember the big one 3 being promoted a couple of years ago.. cheap tickets for us but the uptake wasnt great.

less than 1k on friday from us i reckon.. maybe 500.

sure we will be heard though

it does seem a bit of a farce, im sure there will be enough space in either the east or north stands to accommodate all Huddersfield fans, although they wont because of the groupon deal.

I'm not sure there'd be room in the East, However depending on how many Wiganers have bought ticket's in the north through the Heinz deal then there would probably be room in there. The problem you then have though is disgruntled people who have paid £20 to sit behind the sticks who didn't want to sit along the side then having fans sat with them who have paid a lot less. There's probably no easy way to please everyone in this scenario.

dont see why that would cause an issue - bradford (twice) and salford have done groupon deals for hudds games and those that have taken up the deals have been in the same area as those that didnt take up the offer. no disgruntlement that I noticed, but then those other clubs didnt try to make people sit or stand in particular areas like wigan.....

I didn't realise they where forcing you at gun point to sit anywhere.

I think what she means is that in the past the Groupon deals have allowed you to purchase tickets for anywhere you like rather than 2 specific blocks in specific stands. I have done Groupon for Saints and Salford away and they have let me have tickets for the allocated away stand rather than making us go in the home areas.

They may has well have done! They point blank refused to swap the kids junior tickets for east stand tickets. But tried to get me to pay £30 for tickets for them...Erm two more groupons please...
