now you see one of those would probably tempt me and the bairn to come

| Why has the fact that children with season tics not been mentioned on this thread? All this about expensive for families who would, if true fans, only have to buy 2tics for adults.IIRC the prices at Huddersfield are higher for away fans thean home fans, a scandal in itself!

Wrong, wrong, wrong. You do not recall correctly at all.

As I recall the last time I was at Headingly I got eaten by a giant eagle.

How exactly are the prices higher for Away fans than home fans at ours?? Anyone regardless of who they support can obtain a ticket for £16.50 if the pre book and then the pay on the day prices for all areas is £18.50!! We don't have membership schemes where a member can have a discount off the matchday price! So in theory Leeds charge more for Away fans than home fans as we don't have access to the membership scheme!
A family of 2 adults and 2 children at ours is £33 and only £10 more if the children are over 12 for both home and away fans!! Whereas a family of 4 at headingly is £64! An almost 100% increase even if you do have trophies it doesn't justify such an increase!! OK some families may utilise their kids junior away ticket but not every season ticket came with additional stubs!

| At the end of the day its all down to personel choice, l think the Giants give the best value for money, for away fans in SL, at Wakey my grandson, free at the Giants was charged a tenner, rip off, the Rhino,s are the same, so we simply won´t go, they can say what they like about the Giants away support, but why should we fill their coffers, the more we are mugged the more they will mug us, l think this is one for the RL maybe standerdise prices, even if you have to stand in a 50 year old shed.

Chances are though we'll have to increase ours to standardise them across the board.
Think our club offers the best value for money in SL, just because a team wins a trophy they can does not mean they should rip off people who want to watch them, but the Leeds fans seem very happy to pay through the nose.
I'm sure they wish they had our prices and ground.

| Seems Danril is the only Huddersfield poster without a chip on their shoulder on this thread.
We get the largest crowds in Super League and have done for some time. Should we drop our tickets prices to attract a few extra away fans? The economics would suggest no.
I pay dearly for my Season ticket at Headingley but I won't cry about it because it is what it is. On the other hand I got a great deal for me and the family for the game at Huddersfield. But when you're stadium is always half empty as opposed to almost full then those are the things you have to do.
I suspect your record at Headingley is also a factor putting a lot of you off. That's a shame because there's every chance that might change this Sunday and those of you staying away might just miss out on that.

Good post and all valid points, now, when other Leeds fans come along moaning/being abusive about our support, can we show then this post to show how its done?
You are right in all those things (I also dislike the atmosphere at Headingly, its very threatening and abusive towards away fans in my experience, and this includes at internationals there too) and so maybe, just maybe its simply not an issue at Leeds how many we take.

| I don't find it particularly intimidating TBH, it's one that I quite like apart from the result. I can name a couple of places straight away I find far less friendly than Leeds away.
And I reckon you wont need three guesses to get them!

I will be at the game, but in the past I have felt uneasy/intimidated by a group of Leeds 'young men' who congregate at the scoreboard end and seem to put lots of effort into being as insulting as possible, either about our team or towards our supporters. No doubt all teams have undesireable followers, but in my experience, at only Leeds and Wakefield do these types deliberately stand with the 'away' fans

i hate the word chav because of its political predjudical under tones but i see horrible street kids at all games of all teams.
hudderfield is the only game i have come out of where 2 or 3 families were stood around where we park waiting for auto glass to come sort the smashed windows of their cars. very sad. thats was this season too.

| Unfortunate, but thats a product of where the cars were left rather than anything else, Leeds road isnt the most salubrious region of Huddersfield.
