| It is difficult to judge how many were there in that huge Crater, I suspect more than the 7,000 people have suggested, my own guess was about 8,000, but it was little more than a guess. The seats were probably half full so 2,500 there, 5,000 on the opposite side and 500 behind the sticks?
I was stood behind the sticks and from there could see at full time as the side terrace cleared that there were a lot of Giants fans there. There were no reasonable grounds for bagging yesterdays travelling support.

ah but the bulls fans only look behind the posts and were well gone by the time we could see all the fans on the side on terrace

| Some clown at the match was saying we should be ashamed of ourselves bringing only 400 to the game. He was shot down by a few Giants fans next to him as he walked down the steps on the main terrace. Apparently 'Fartown Fartown' is a gay chant too!

| Not forgetting the obligatory 'where were you when you were poop' histrionics coming out of the ground from women who didn't know the sport existed until 2000, actually i thought it was a good turnout considering the weather, certainly a lot of giants there judging by the cheers from the very top after the first try

| Theres Nowt like a Bitter Bull. One said to me in a snarl "you're just a joke club" to which I replied "so much so your famous son Robbie Paul works for the Giants" I swear his pupils turned red with the rage.

To which the obligatory reply is- either a) wearing a bulls shirt or b) same place as your fans now you are.
Remember it for next time.

If true how do Bradford count their season ticket holders as well as the traditional 13 game ticket they do a decreasing price voucher system that gets you into however many games you want to pay for but you do not have to stipulated which games you will use them for.....if people buy a 4 game book it seems a bit wrong to include them in the gate for all 13 games.

I dont think Town are, the home game against Shorpe was just over 10k, but apparently they have 13k season ticket holders

| Town do include season ticket sales
Quote: "The 'gate' figure for the npower League 1 game between Huddersfield Town and Shorpe United was 13,086 - but how was it reached?
That figure represents the number of tickets sold for the fixture, which consists of the following

| Back to the Odsal crowd i've seen pics of the terrace taken from the stand and the 2 blocks by the tunnel which are usually rammed with bulls fans were both probably less than half full, certainly very few people in the bottom of either block...in fact the 2 end blocks which were mostly Giants fans were the 2 most heavily populated blocks on the main terrace!!!!
