To me that reads as a grateful yet frustrated Ken Davy. He is right, this is arguably the most successful team since the team of all talents. Yes all it's missing is silverware, but we've been mighty close on a few occasions.

We all want much bigger crowds and if you look at the teams around us, they are all getting bigger crowds than us. We should be on or around 10k average. However doubling season ticket prices during an economic downturn was always going to make it a massive challenge. Still how do we compare price wise to Wigan, Wire, Leeds, Saints, Hull and Bradford?

True. Now that is a mystery. I'd like someone to try and explain that.

Ken may have been disappointed with the Hull crowd but there was a lot against us.

Crap kick off time, on Sky, Wales v England grand slam decided on BBC. I also met a lad in the pub after the game who went to the Town v Leeds game the same afternoon. He said he'd watch the Giants as well as Town if he could afford but Town was his first choice. We did have a pint together to celebrate both teams winning on the same weekend (same afternoon this particular time) as it doesn't happen very often. Mostly down to Town these days.

Yeah that's true, we did get royally stiffed over the Hull game - I know 4 regulars who couldn't make it

I know a family who took up the free coach offer who had never been to away games and then have got hooked on them and have gone to everyone since.

Last season I bought 11 season tickets for our family. But this season we only got 6 due to some of them not able to afford it, and they will not be going to any pay on day matches as they can`t afford it due to reduced income.
There must be many more in the same situation, and £24 or £48 for a couple will go a long way to putting some food on the table. Things must be prioritised and going to a game is low down on that list.
Also all clubs support is down, it was only the Good Friday crowds that produced some good figures, as generally they are all down.
Just been looking at Leeds and Wigan crowds for the respective matches for 2012 and they are both down.
And travelling support to our place has been well down, in fact the Hull contingent was the lowest I have ever seen at our place. But that could be as the game was on SKY and RU on TV.
We have always had poor gates when on SKY, and our best supported day is Sunday afternoon.
Also the trouble with our supporters is they are so fickle, we have a team that flatters to deceive :- we will win 3 games and then have a stinker and repeat again shooting the club in the foot as our consistency is one of the problems.
I would argue the fact of Huddersfield being a totally football town, as I come from Dewsbury and there are plenty of town fans here also Ossett and Batley, and that`s just this side of Huddersfield, if the same is repeated on the other side of Huddersfield just how many actually come from Huddersfield, getting down to the nitty gritty I bet the crowds actually from Huddersfield are about the same for Rugby and football. Don`t forget Fartown used to get huge crowds in the past so it is not a Football town only.
