Bizarre isn't it. The choices they have made have been terrible all season.

=#8040FFDon't hear Eddie & Stevo banging on about that like they were when it happened to Leeds do you?

it was a boring game i agree, the lack of atmosphere at our ground is also very worrying,but like we said, we seemed to have picked up a few fans since 2006 who dont seem to understand the notion of "supporting" your team instead prefering to just sit there and spectate,each to their own but personally i like to get behind my team vocally.
as for the game i thought huddersfield looked like they were going through the motions to be honest, cas ,to their credit as they had 8 first teamers out as has been pointed out already,never gave up trying,but the reality is had we been on any kind of top form we would have put a lot more points on the board IMO
the crowd? yes it wasn't the best and i cant remember castleford bringing so little supporters to huddersfield,no matter how bad the team are doing the cas fans usually travel in good numbers, last night i imagine there was little more than 200 there, as for our support,well like i say we are becoming a fickle bunch and losing on monday probably knocked a few off the gate..but the ultimate problem for us is FRDIAY NIGHTS,our supporters have proved over the years that friday night games just arent their thing, live tv dont help either as many casual supporters will opt to stay at home and watch it.

still another 2 points another clean sheet even though the giants were pretty poor last night

I stand, £18. Thats a fact. I laugh at many of your opinions, now I'm laughing at your ability to use facts to prove a point when it clearly doesnt work.

My feelings are opinions about going to Hudderfield, and you have to try hit back with that. I dont care if you dont bring your kids, many many do. Highly amusing. Please keep posting, always good for a laugh.

He didn't lose it, it was clearly ripped out, and it was very close wether it was a 1 on 1 or a 2 on 1, but i would have said it was 2 on 1 just, but that was close. However, the ball was ripped none the less, and then Cooper grounded it after it had been ripped, advantage to Castleford is a try, IMO.

Wow, I'm a Salford fan and we usually take alot more to Huddersfield away then what Cas took and considering we have a bad following we're a worse team and we're further away, that is poor

Probably because they wanted a change from the same teams being on every week

As I say mate, many like me, did it as a protest that won't damage the club. Ironically Im off to Salford v Wigan tomorrow to get my fix! Come on Salford!!!

One of the players had his hand on/underneath the ball as Cooper was going down.

to be fair you could always park for free,if you ask on our board im sure most people will only be too glad to help.
as for being overpriced, im not sure how you come to that conclusion



and your right the large stadium doesnt help us but not a lot we can do about that im afraid

Well you can only compare like for like. as there is no standing at Huddersfield you have to compare the seating prices. that is logically and the prices are facts.

So is the issue that £20 is too much which would rule you out of most SL grounds as that is the going rate.

Or is it that you dont want to sit at a ground which would rule you out of Wigan and Hull Fc as well.

It would seem that your reason for not going was nothing to do with the extra £2 cost. that is fine but do not use a spurious arguement about cost or Huddersfield being expensive as being the reason you did not go.

I enjoyed listening to the supporter with the Klaxon, followed by total silence.

The 1st try was an obvious forward pass, shame to linesman, who was directly inline didn’t flag it. How much do they get paid for doing diddly squat?

Maybe so, but they have picked argueably the two worst games of the week. If Quins get within 40 of Saints tonight I will be amazed.

my grounds better than yours blah blah blah, grow up,

You are right, £2 is not the reason as its neither here nor there, though I havent found £20 to be the going rate this year, except at Wakefield. Couldnt make Hull due to work and I think its £20 there.

Huddersfield isnt like Wigan or Hull though, they have the same capacity but their are an extra 10 000 people rather than empty seats. Its difficult to describe accurately, but I dont go to Huddersfield because Ive rarely enjoyed going there. And dont say its 'cos we lose, I support Cas, we have lost in many places Ive still enjoyed going!!!!!

Your team got spanked, and you are having a whinge.

Nothing more, nothing less.

Thanks for that. What is your favourite colour?

That made me laugh, but only because it was true.

It's all about the.......




timing.

Beat listening to that bloody BigG and his drum for a change though!

Those who often read my posts, mainly on the Cas board will know its not my style to whinge. No point and I always like to find the positive.

Losing has nothing to do with the fact I didnt go to Huddersfield, I stated earlier why I didnt go.

Many seem to think my comments are an attack on Huddersfield, again not the case. Those with a bit more sense might see that when people comment, sometimes there is logic in what they say. Many clubs play at grouds too big for them, but take measures to condense the crowd to make the atmosphere more intense etc... Pricing structures, or maybe even perceptions of pricing structures - I went to Huddersfeild two years ago and felt ripped off, yet it doesnt seem to be the case now, could greater awareness of pricing be on club websites perhaps?? Who knows?

But its nonsense to just brush it off as a "whinge" - couldnt be further from the truth.

Perhaps your those many Huddersfield fans who started watching in 2006?



Bet theres a bite!

Shocking crowd for the "home of rugby league"

Your right it wasnt a great crowd. Thats what happens when you play on Friday nights though, people do other stuff instead.

Certainly the 1000 or so that came from Cas last year had other things to do.

Like whinge about how bad their team is.

Just a couple of comments from reading this thread:

I don't know why people still think a ball steal by a defending player in their in-goal area should result in a penalty try. The decision in this situation has been a penalty to the attacking team 10m out for the last 3 seasons.

With regards to opinions about boring rugby, Huddersfield did used to play boring rugby but that's not the case any more. I actually find them quite an entertaining side to watch these days. For some bizarre reason this year Cas are trying to play boring rugby and it doesn't suit us and we aren't any good at it - we need to go back to accepting our defence is crap and trying to score more points than the other team like we did last season. For anyone wanting boring rugby I'd suggest Harlequins, Bradford or Crusaders.

I'd suggest Wakefield.

why?
because the game was formed over a 100 years ago in a hotel in our town does that mean that everyone in huddersfield should want to spend friday nights at a rugby match that they can watch for free on tv anyway if they so wished?

im presuming by your notion that rugby RUFC are the best supported union club then?





oh and code 13,like me, is one of the "Fartown 500"
