no they didn't, they put on a promotion to try and get their fans to fill empty seats, and fair play to them, wish we could do that.
however the promotions were not aimed at Huddersfield fans, judging by the lack of organisation for the visiting fans last night I think wigan were surprised that more than 200 of us turned up.
and yes the stewards let us sit together in the east stand but then didn't apply the same logic to wigan fans, hence the problems just after kick off.

Empty seats at a Hudds game. Thats very normal! You shouldn't be surprised that Wigan were surprised that more than 200 turned up. But the title of the thread is OTT and unjustified. Perhaps we should start a similar thread on the Hudds board when Hudds charge us top whack to go to your place when clearly they need a promotion to get more people in.

When Huddersfield regularly bring a decent number than you will get that. The trouble is you usually bring a busload and it is not economical to always do so. Start coming with decent numbers and you will get the North stand all to yourselves as Saints, Leeds, Warrington et all do.

Thank god we only have to put up with them once every 50 years.

Some good points. The problem could have been sorted with hindsight but other people seem to be saying the Wigan fans where being awkward, at the end of the day though that section of the east stand was very busy and i personally don't think there's anything wrong with people wanting to sit in their allocated seats, bit of a different scale but If i turn up at Wembley and a group of people just decide they want to be together because they've bought tickets that are separated and take my seat I'd be saying something too. I think the stewards who said just sit where you want where at fault in that situation really and not really clued up on how many people where expected.

We didnt just decided though, it was the stewards in the stand that turned us away from looking from our allocated seats and told us all to go in the far block and sit where we want. We presumed they would have told the Wigan fans the same !!

I agree the thread title is misleading and unjustified,it was a bit of a farce but no long term harm done.
it actually worked out better for us in the end.

I had groupon tickets, but I sat in ES3 right at the top, plenty of space, sat with some Huddersfield fans too, was a good game to be at in fact, very pleasant and friendly were the Hudds lot

Is it disorientation at being in a crowd of people that had thrown the Giants into disarray? They get offered tickets at a reaonable price, end up with their compadres, all 2000 of them (if you're counting limbs rather than adopting the one person counts one approach), and then we have a storm in tea cup and a dig at people leaving early.
A question for next Year's Huddersfield 11 plus. If 19k Wigan fans begin to leave 10minutes before the end of the game, at what speed would they have to leave for there to be more people left in the ground at the end than would ever dream of watching the Giants play at home (6 marks and you'll need a calculator as it's a big number)?
I will be well in my dotage before we see them throwing their toys around agin, thank goodness.

whats matter lingfield did we beat you?
why the bitter swipes at our fans?
why not just accept defeat gracefully like most others on here?
our fans created a good atmosphere last night so not sure why the digs.

"we start threads like this"?
I don't think the title of the thread is representative of many giants fans.

"we already have"
I was referring to lingfield warrior as they seem to have a massive problem with Huddersfield supporters.
