reet, i know this was done to death over the cup game the other week, but how many season ticket holders have huddersfield supposedly got.


I'm sure it was said it was over 5k, 4,900 something attendance tonight. So sky have just said.

Are ST holders not even turning up now?

Monday night but still... wow

England were playing. Another Euro game on. Travelling support a lot lower than normal because of this and many of the home fans will have stayed in the pub. Terrible scheduling by Sky here.

thats why i was enquiring over the season ticket holders, as opposed to the floating support, and england finished at 7 as well, so, an hour to spare.

That said, thats a ing horrific performance.

Do Huddersfield not do the trick most other teams do of counting ST holders on the attendance whether they turn up or not then?

Hudds struggle to get big crowds when on sky really. Had this game been sunday afternoon without sky then the crowd would have been over 7k I reckon.

I am one of the people that stayed at home not because it was a Monday night but because of England (call me a part time fan or that I should not have watched football thats fine). First time I have not gone to Huddersfield away since KR have got in Super league.

It was a poor crowd again yes i know a lot of people were working etc but also a lot of people simply couldn't be d after some poor performances and results,and after tonights pathetic showing i cant say i blame them.
Agree though,monday night Englands first game etc poor scheduling but sums our support up really,always something better to do when things aren't going well

you poor buggers, semi final of the cup and in the top 5 in the league. must be tough.

With the cheap pricing of the games the £50 season ticket is a bargain for me

Im a keighley fan and go to watch Hudds when Keighley are not playing ect. I know other championship clubs supporters do this also, Super League rugby at a bargain ive only seen 3 Hudds games this season and probably might only get 2 another 3, less if keighley do well in the NRC and play offs. Even if I dont go to another game ive seen 3 quality Super League games working out at only £16.66 and I cant grumble at that. Now I know its highly likely that if this deal wasnt on then I would have gone to Zero Huddersfield games therefore inputing no money into the club

ok keighley were not playing today, but its a monday night when I work late and its on telly


This gives hudds season ticket sales a false reading for people such as me. and im sure any die hard Huddersfield fan might not like me for it, but when I do go im buying food raffle tickets ect and putting money into the club as an RL fan not a huddersfield fan and surely the people at Huddersfield knew this when they put out the deal the were offering at the season start. So sadly on days like today with what id say quite a few people in a similar boat to me as a Huddersfield ST holder atts like that will appear on days like this and maybe when crowds are good its a slight false reading because some of their season ticket holders are supporters of other clubs just wanting to watch a good game of rugby when their team isnt playing ect

Cant defend that one i'm afraid .............there are reasons to it but still not defendable, hope you all had a good laugh at our empty stadium and leaky defence !

Not getting into a debate about this again but our season tickets weren't £50, that was only for an offer in a certain area of the ground for a certain number for a certain timescale...in fact only about 500 of 6,000+ season tickets were sold this way !

How can ANY Huddersfield fan claim that the England game had an effect.

The England game kicked off at 5pm and finished at 6:55pm approximately. Any rugby fan could have got into Huddersfield and watched the game in Warehouse or Wetherspoons or anywhere else and then walked down to the game.

What a poor excuse.

exactly what im saying, that is not enough for some people, a few poor performances and they dont wanna know,they only come when the team is winning and the last few poor performances have been enough for them to not bother

No excuses from me fully,we managed it straight from work but thats because we wanted to,as i said before many others couldn't be d because we are crap at the moment, like daz said there is no defending it, our support was apalling tonight

I'll get my Reason in now. Just finished work at 11pm. I know quite a few people also working aswell. We wouldn't of had the best of crowd due to recent performance if on Saturday but still a load more than today. Why change it to Monday I'll never know as its making alot of fans very unhappy. Sky won't be bothered though

P.s won't be watching the game back!!! Well done Hull KR

We played bradford t'other year, same day as england v germany. We brought the kick off forward and the crowd was effected, & it would've been if they'd have clashed.

The football definitely effected the crowd tonight, will KR take less away fans then that this year anywhere?

300-400 of us there last night, which is not so bad when you consider the football was on and work commitments etc etc. Journey took almost 2 hrs from Hull due to traffic. Missed the first half of the footy, but hey-ho, we saw a good performance from our boys. I can't understand why they chose us for this one when surely Bradford/Cas would have made more sense given travelling distances etc etc.

5th Giants home game on Sky, not one away game yet shown, as you say a strange choice for TV but in the end they got their story and a great performance from you lot and Dobson in particular but to be fair none of the weekend games stood out as being a logical TV choice as I'm guessing Catalans and London will never get a home game shown on a Monday.

To be fair, it's not so much a trick as what should be done.

It's tickets issued that determines the attendance at most clubs, it's not the club's fault if people don't turn up when the seat they've been issued is then unavailable for anyone else to buy.

excuses excuses! i love it!

Yes but the difference with ours is that our game kicked off at 11:30am on a SUNDAY, when there is infrequent public transport.

This was a Monday night when there is more frequent public transport and the England game begun before. If it was a Cas game, I suspect most people would have drunk down in the Boot Room and surrounding pubs and then gone to the game.

There is no excuse except that Huddersfield fans don't turn out when games are on TV.

Wigan at home?

Love your concern but in truth you will not be happy until Giants are out and Fax are in Super League and that is not going to happen any time soon so if thats how you get your kicks so be it

Spare a thought for Championship clubs whose players work during the day and have to play Thursday nights with no money from the tv contract to offset reduced gates.

Hudds have few fans, that's a fact, even after cheap entry deals and all Davy's money propping them up. It must be worrying for him when so few turn up for such a vital game for both clubs.

SL isn't working well enough to be a closed shop.
