no point preaching on here we all go to the games, sell it to the ones who dont!'"


but some posters on here didnt even turn up tuesday night ... some have valid excuses others not

anyway once again i dont see what the problem is with the crowd is was good imo

and no other fans from other clubs have jumped on this thread and said it was a poor turnout... so just goes to show that it was fine..time to move on!

Every single "excuse" given is valid, its a personal choice, there is no right or wrong, thats the point.

I rarely missed a game when i was a young lad with no ties etc, circumstances change, priorities change, id rather spend some time with my son if it clashes with a Giants game (rarely does) but again thats a personal choice.

People dont have to justify what they do in their spare time

There isnt a problem with the crowd size, decent turnout.

But who are you or anyone else to decide what is a valid excuse icon_confused.gif:

is it lack of money icon_confused.gif: , working late icon_confused.gif: , being too tired after been at work icon_confused.gif: , not having a babysitter icon_confused.gif: , not wanting to upset the wife icon_confused.gif:
being on holiday icon_confused.gif: watching your kids playing or reffing another match icon_confused.gif:

ATEOTD, supporters can pick and choose which games they go to. That makes them no better or worse than anyone else.

All teams fans are made up of different groups, the hardcore, the regulars, the occassional fans, the glory hunters. Everyone of them supports the club in their own way.

After the debacle at Crusaders i dont blame some fans for not turning up. It is their choice

800 hardcore
3000 regulars

'couldnt be @rsed to go',
'would rather go watch town monday'
'it was only salford'

i think its more than that TBH.....we have over 5000 season ticket holders so i cant really see 1200 people forking out all that money just to go to the occasional game......i would imagine majority of our season ticket holders are either hardcore or regular.

Run leroy , run !.... And he did - twice - and we partied hard...:Black Backgrounds/Statler.gif



I am a fan eaton ?
Only go to home games, but take + 2 to home game. Oh and pay for them, plus food, plus programme, plus replic kits each year, plus big g cushions, plus giants rugby balls, plus flags...
In fact, does that make me 3 x the loyal supporter you are? Ken davy and the till machine at the galpharm might think so.

Knowing that Salford is normally a low gate and on the back of 2 away ones at Leeds and Crusaders, was there anything in place for Salford game regarding offers, certainly be a game id have targetted along with Quins and Catalans.

What's all this about having an 'excuse' for not attending a Giants match?

I could understand having to have an excuse if I was supposed to be at school or at work and didn't attend.

Next time I don't attend a Giants match I think I'll get a note from my mum and hand it to Ken Davy personally.
