| Quote ="Durham Giant"Maybe you should change your name to Thewlis cheerleader.
What I find really interesting about the likes of spaines jools and Scorpio is that despite alll the value points made by posters about how bad the club is run or criticising the organisation or the poor recruitment all they come back with is that We are proper fans you are not a fan because you are not as loyal as us.
All said in a slightly superior tone.
You are not supporters or fans you are just cheerleaders who blindly accept the crap that you are served up and then blame other supporters for not being as loyal as you.
The question you need to ask is why is the club doing so badly ? why are fans leaving in droves ? and why do you celebrate when others are critical of the club and move away from the club.?'"
so This season I’ve been accused of blindly following the club and not being loyal as I’m critical of the club- so I’m not really sure what the reality is- I’d say probably In Between, in that I criticise or praise where I see it’s due.
You are making things up Durham- I have never ever said anything about me being more loyal etc etc. I challenge you to show evidence of your accusations.
What I find really interesting is that it seems to me you get a joy out of being grumpy.
In answer to your questions;
There is more than one reason, I don’t have time to discuss the last three years all over again. In case you hadn’t noticed they are all across the fake and the giants are not unique in this- it’s a general trend even in clubs who win.
I don’t- again I challenge you to provide evidence of me celebrating.

Yeah- you said you were going on holiday to japan! Again prove I’ve either said I’m more loyal or have celebrated people moving away from the club- both things youve accused me of!
Ps I’d more than happily see you move away from the forum because your constant whining is a bore- different thing entirely fella.
You just seem to have a bee in your bonnet and I do wonder is it because you met with RT and he didn’t take on board your ideas.

| All this Tripe because i said i would wait to see what changes took place before i renewed my season pass.
Is this still a forum or is it the 4th Reich. The way things are going you'll be able to count the number of posters on one hand soon.

| Quote ="Giantscorpio"If everyone was like you, there would be no season ticket sales, therefore the club would not be able to invest in new players. But we have good young players coming through also who are worth watching. Winning at all costs is not the be-all and end-all of watching sport. You my friend can not be called a supporter of the Giants if you are picking and choosing games to watch, a supporter supports through thick and thin not just when the going`s good.'"
Ok my friend if you say so. I suppose for the last thirty years i have been buying tickets I have just been pretending to be a fan, Maybe if i sign some sort of contract to say i will keep buying one till i die and make provision in my will to support the giants after i,m gone you'll be happy.

| Quote ="Giantscorpio"Well me and the wife go and we are highly delighted with the price of the tickets and we are both 75 years old, our prices are way lower than all the other clubs, and appreciate the prices Ken has produced. I know we get no age concessions but it is acceptable with these prices. I would say that over 20s are well capable of paying our prices though as income from working is far greater than the pension. It`s an absolute give-away for 20 - 30s.'" Spot on giantscorpio two decisions to be made ,buy a season card or don't buy a season card.Problem solved.I am proud to have been a supporter of The Giants Fartown Barracudas call them what you will since the 1949-50 season,sitting on the same row is another guy who has been a supporter since the 1947-48 season yes we have a moan about things but the simple truth is we love the game of rugby league and in particular The Giants
Forget the price and get your card renewed your club needs you.

Precisely, therefore buying a Giants season card is a steal at £149, and mindblowing at £80 for under 30s.

At those prices it looks as though the club is trying to buy season ticket holders and you still cannot get a decent crowd. If I remember rightly my grandson aged 22 was charged £24 at the turnstile this year.
£24 for one match, £80 for a season!

Not really as adults could buy a ticket for £22 on the day.
My point actually was the offering of a season pass for £80 against a match day price of £24.

That’s only in the Roger Millward Stand. Everywhere else is as I said. In any case what has our prices to do with my original comment?
I was making two points
The very low season ticket prices at Huddersfield seem to be an attempt to encourage more people to buy them. This seems to fail in view of the poor attendances.
The on the day price of a match day ticket for a 22 year old is £24 yet a season ticket is only £80.
Is that wording more clear?

It’s fairly clear to me, away fans, who are the biggest group out of those that buy match day tickets, are been well and truly ripped off

That's your opinion & I respect that but at least when it rains the away fans don't get wet (if as I understand from your name you are a Leeds supporter).

Why? Game day prices are the same regardless of whether you are home or away fans. And cheaper than leeds’ so how is that ripping off away fans? What you mean is you don't get the same favours but you’re hardly being ripped off!
