Same price in all areas as far as i know, would make sense to make behind the sticks a bit cheaper really.

If they do it cheaper for the home behind the sticks end, then they would have to do the same for the away end, otherwise away fans will be going into the home end or getting very fed up, so could end up with less money coming to the club.

HUDDERSFIELD - THE BIRTHPLACE OF RUGBY LEAGUE:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_43854.jpg



wasnt it £99 early bird for behind the posts? sure it was.

works out at less than £8 a game... thats cheaper than any pay on the day admission no matter where you sit at any ground.

prob could of split this into monthly payments too

just how cheap do people want it??? free?

does the town want super league success?

Indeed

A deal like that though could run through the season so if someone decides after a few games they want a season they can still pay £99 and get 10 games at an average of a tenner.

Hull fc charge more for away fans that home fans for exactly the same facilities. I feel we could be justified in doing this as there isn't proper cover in the pink link stand.

Interesting that today in the paper the Town chairman has come out and said season tickets for them need to be over 10k next year

And they are about to be relegated! Wishful thinking on his part I imagine...

If the top tier was open, even if very few sat in there that would be equivalent to the away end and could be one way around it.

and they cost over £400...football fans must have more money than rugby fans eh.. or people are just more willing to pay to watch 2nd tier football instead of top tier rugby... does the town want super league?

Yeah just read about that, and some of the bile that comes out of some of those Town fans on their message board about the Giants is deplorable.

It is quite atrocious, and a shining example of why I want nothing to do with soccer

That said, I've seen worse on these forums at times

Debate re attendances - £24 on the day not in the real world and will put of many fans who make a decision to come at the last push. Easter Monday a good example - many families will have spent up over the Fri/Sat/Sun. So this one for me had to go out at £15 with loads of activities for kids to get us 6,000 in.

Tiered pricing taking into account opposition, television, kick off time etc an absolute must.

Town now in Championship a factor ? Well their attendances have gone up but not by much and largely driven by away support. So not sure soccer is tempting sports fans away from RL.

Bad relations between Town / Giants, fuelled by the stadium share issue. A minority hold stupid extreme views on both sides, but not representative of the whole. However, there is a high level of awareness of the share issue among Town fans and it is probably putting off a section of Town support from attending Giants games. At Wembley in 2009 lots of Town fans were in the crowd.

Also noticeable that there has been no marketing of Giants games to the thousands of Town supporters on the ticket office database. From a Giants point of view this is such an obvious marketing tactic you wonder why this hasnt taken place, are we back to the problem of the shares.

So lots to chew on. But as disappointing as the attendances are, the club can't simply question the desire of the people of Huddersfield.

Yeah there is, so far as I can see, very little marketing of the club in the town centre
