| only option of holiday I had was 1st or last week of school holidays so missed Saturday's game. Had hoped game may have been moved to Friday night. Not missed many this year despite having to take holiday for some Thursday & away Friday games. Will be there for rest of games.

PS I am a club sponsor and put a lot of money into the Giants every year so don't tell me I've given up, or ever will do.'"
What no Doctors note, Shame on you , after the team have grafted so hard all season as well.

I don't know why you felt you had to explain your absence on Saturday, we all make our own choices for our own reasons and find this high and mighty attitude from those who think they can pass judgement on others without knowing everybody's thoughts or situation to be offensive.
Surprised there isn't a register taken to keep a check....detention for those who miss games and no excuses

Think most people would settle for scraping into 3rd position any way they can. As for laughing, something to even smile about this season would be a rarity.

It's so easy to laugh! It's so easy to hate!
It takes strength to be gentle and kind!!: |

| Yep! I'll admit to being a bit disgruntled and made a conscious decision on Saturday not to go to Warrington. It was a hard decision as I'm usually there home and away when work and family commitments allow and hate to miss out.
Some regular fans may well be a bit fed up, possibly a bit short of cash or have family or holiday commitments - I made an easy choice to spend the day with my son on his birthday and to watch him headline a music festival in Halifax. Check out the up and coming indie band; 'Wired To Fail' - bookings taken for parties, weddings, wakes etc.

Forget the Cowbell Army.
Wired To Fail sounds like the ideal band for the Giant at the moment.
Are they free most Sunday afternoons?

| I'm looking forward to attending all the middle 8's.
Especially Leigh as I've never been to the LSV.

| I was there on Saturday but you cannot knock the fans who weren't. I can only realistically make Saturday and Sunday games and home Friday night games as I work away. Therefore I have missed three home games despite having a season ticket and only made away games at Wakey, Widnes and Warrington. It becomes harder for me every year to follow my team but I hope to get to most games in the play off's.

I think you underestimate the quality of a few teams in the championship.
They are good enough to challenge us for sure.
In their favourthey have nothing to lose and less pressure.
They have been winning the majority of the season whereas we have been losing.
Leigh, arguably the strongest team in the championship are another year wiser whereas this is new territory for us.
We will be massively targeted and need to give every side 100% respect.
Anything less or a wrong mentality and we will lose.
I have a bad feeling the new system of the 8's will be proved a success the second year in and a new team will be in SL next year. I desperately hope it isn't us.

A dead rubber for a game who's fixture had changed. Some people clearly have no lives - others do - For instance a coach load had booked to go to the races on the Saturday.
Jibes like that dont help.

For once Jool's we agree but its easier to just sling mud for some we have a good core away support when we all get there but every year the first two weeks of the school holidays yield reduced attendances.
Let's see where our first qualifier is then let people carp if it's a bad following I suspect it won't be, Batley away would do nicely.

| It's a sports entertainment business.
this season hasn't been entertaining.
So why bother turning up for a rearranged match which meant nothing. Especially at £29 for a seat.
I will be going to the middle 8's because it's a bit different. But many won't bother because they can get better entertainment elsewhere and good luck to them.
Play better get more support. Simples.
