Agree with what Meast is saying, at times it worked and it got the stand going rather than the people at the back but sometimes they played completely irrelevant bits!

Seems a lot of people were saying they will move if they stay.. Where has this come from? Was it something to do with the fanzine Eddie? If not it seems strange that the club just decided this is whats needed

Nothing to do with the fanzine! We created an article with suggestions of how to inprove crowds and I can assure you a band featured no where with in that!

Oh good god - are you telling others what they want and what they should like again? How they should support, what they should smd should not do.
Last week - Moan "there's no atmosphere" moan "no one joins in the songs" moan "why can't we be like Leeds"
This week - moan the band is the wrong atmosphere" moan "they play the wrong songs" moan "we are like leeds"

At least it will drown out the childish drivel and foul language for those on that side of the stadium. And at least it means those of us in the other side can actually hear something from the Kilner bank instead of the usual silence heard.

It was the only sign of an atmosphere in the whole stadium ---- apart from the away end....

the thread asked for thoughts, we offered them.

Apart from sounding terrible the band did not create an atmosphere at all ,what next Les Dawson playing his piano off key.
Personally i can,t stand bands at games and judging by the reaction of people around me neither could they

Not keen at all.

Great idea. Several times they got the crowd singing when doom and gloom had set it.

Agreed with the point about them the choices - maybe a bit of research into what songs we sing. I was expecting 'Marching On Together'

Miserable ers the lot of you.

I sometimes think most of the moaners on here are only interested in one thing their own personal experience of the game and then coming on here and moaning about anything.

Anything to try something different by the club is knocked down," I don't like it, it's too noisy, I don't like the songs".

Try to think about things outside of your own body space.

One of the real issues at The ground is the lack of atmosphere..

Most of those criticising the band's only contribution to the atmosphere is,
Come and join us at the back of the stand where the singers are".

I am not a great lover of bands but for a few minutes each half to liven things up it is no bad thing.

It is like BIg G. if it was non stop druim it would be tedious. Every now and then it helps.

Can't believe what I have been reading on social media

Only 3792 Giants fans compared to 3945 from Hull


Wow

I liked the band! Seven nation army in the build up to kick off worked well a lot of sgocked faces as no one expected it!
On a day when we offered nothing in attack it is easy to see why our fans were not in the mood to sing or chant so the effectiveness of the band was always going to be up against it!
Something different for us and will work to get us a better atmosphere especially if people decide to stop moaning and join in!
Players want us to back them be vocal and show our support in the stands but any idea of something to boost our vocality and it's put down!

No way were there that many, that stand holds 4000, there were about 200 empty seats along with both ends cordoned off, my estimate 2800/2900, still a very good turn out by Hull though.

By the way, no problem with the band, as said they just need to learn the songs that Huddersfield sing out to thats all, i was sat right in the middle as usual and i never heard any disparaging comments from anyone.

I quite liked the band idea. Unfortunately our chants, like the team never really got going.
