the first five words gave it away, "we brought plenty last year", this is huddersfield right, he wasn't fooling anyone with that!

They're second in the league, playing well, yet the stadium appeared empty on sky whilst hosting Saints. It's a shame really.

Never been to Hull kr, only stadium in the league that I have yet to visit, but I have stood many times with Hull KR fans as I go to many games as a neutral and never found one bad egg in them, v friendly fans with no hint of trouble.

Dear me.

I can only ever remember seeing a pile of stones left unattended during a match once.
It was in 1981 at the boulevard. Didn't end well.

I refuse to attend any more stonings at Craven Park, I'm sure there were women present at the last one!

Have any of you tried the M62 round Leeds on a Friday night ?? I will pay £22 tonight to go in the Well but I would not come and pay £18 to be miles away behind the goals.

Anyway there weren't many from Hull KR at the JS earlier this season and that was a Sunday. 242 was the official away attendance but more than Hull FC 187 on a Saturday at 4.30pm though they say there were thousands what rubbish.

I take heart however from one thing we were continually dissed as a crap team but now it's crowds I wonder why?

On a brighter note lets hope for a good game and some good banter tonight whoever wins !!!

For anyone who wants to Banter I look like an older version of our coach in a claret and gold shirt.

No there were not as everyone had a beard and one 'bloke' was carrying a donkey.

Are you sure you are not new to RL and being a Hudds fan?
The quantity of you attendences has always been ridiculed.

and all I said to my wife was 'That piece of halibut was good enough for Jehovah

I've said it before and I'll say it again.

There's a very good reason for Huddersfields poor crowds, (and to be fair, they've been building steadily until this season when everone's crowds are down, they averaged more than us last year) a champion team in the fifties and then awfully run, going bankrupt several times and nearly out of existence for the next thirty five years.

They lost at least two generations of new fans during that period and were virtually starting from scratch in the early nineties.

Most of us were either around in the early eighties or have parents that were there. I'm not from an RL family but was taken with my Mum, Dad and Sister from about the age of seven as we were a successful club. Huddersfield didn't have that.

These things take time to build, sure they're not moving as quickly as they'd like but they've probably got a decent solid following of at least four and a half thousand.

I think one thing that works against them is the size of their stadium, you don't really need a season ticket if you know you can just rock up and be guaranteed a decent seat. I'd think twice about geting a season ticket if the East Stand held six thousand and I knew I could just pick and choose my games and get in.

Also, haven't their season ticket prices reverted to normal this season?

In the past when they were heavily discounted I personally know of a previously non RL person who bought one for him and son because it was something to do together on a Sunday afternoon. That was about four seasons ago and they've renewed ever since, including this year at full price.

It's easy to sit on the sidelines and point and laugh.

Does anyone know if the kids are on again before the main event?

Really enjoyed watching them the last couple of home games and I'll probably come over a bit earlier if they're on.

Yeah, 5:15pm, something like that.

5:45

Well you've let yourself down there Sandra. You can't be a real Hull KR fan as we are all workshy and visit the dole office every other week.
