Th epoint you seem to miss is that we had been Pish poor for the best part of 3 DECADES. The Giants have only had 4 good years recently. We are still trying to get back the fans we have lost since the 1970s.
You support is very good and thank you for filling our coffers today. I hope soon we actually win something an dthen we will build up the support that you have.

I hope you do to, I can't wait for the day when every RL game is a sell out.
Unfortunatley I don't think i'll be alive to see that and I'm only mid 20's!
Although I do think you should have done better off that Season ticket offer.

Good luck with that generalisation. You are making yourself look a fool.

We are a town not a city who has 4 super league team within a 15 mile radius and many more national league teams in the local area!!! Football is massive in the area too and we've got plenty teams around us competing for fans!!!
What has Hull got? Its a City with 2 RL sides its own football team and a couple of poor footy teams close by!!!! You've got a larger catchment area to aim for for all 3 teams compareds to us!!!!! I couldn't give a monkeys how large our attendances are its what happens on the pitch and from what I've seen over the past few years we are getting better and better!!!!!

We have filled that stand before. I can't remember whether it was 2 or 3 seasons ago. They had to remove the covering off the seats to fit us all in. I've no idea how many we took yesterday. My post was to point out that, if the police had been advised by the coach companies that we were bringing 2500, they would have to add more to that figure for people travelling by car and another 1000 wouldn't be an unrealistic figure given that we'd had a good winning run.
Quote: wishy "I was near the coaches and there was banter yes but also some little oiks giving it all this and that to the Giants fans as they passed. It's a true reality that our local Police look at the Giants fixtures and pin point 4 matches were they the look to seek their presence meaning a bill for the Giants!! And Hull FC is one of those 4! '"
Where were they because they certainly weren't visible?
Anyway congratulations on the win, it was well deserved.

Check up SL franchising, think off the field counts too then.
Although Huddersfield ain't a team to be anywhere near being thrown out.

How could the coach companies say to the Police that they were bringing 2500 when according to the feedback given by Hull FC there were only upto 9-10 coaches travelling so I'd knock a zero off unless these coaches were extreamly overcrowded, no wonder the Police wanted to know!!
As for the stand when ever you've been in the past theres always been plenty of seats at the front, but it is hard to see these when you enter the stand, those covered seats at the back look more appealing don't they, but just because they remove the covers doesn't imply that the stand is full just an attitude from fans trying to avoid having to actually look for an available seat. Yesterday it mayve looked full from your point of view but it was only just half full!!
As I've said in a previous post Hull fans were a credit to their club, in numbers and behaviour.
