More like 2500 but good support all the same its been years since hull had a following like that used to be the norm, well done

4,000 May be pushing it but there was no way 1,500 empty seats. Minimum 3,000.
Regardless, our support was fantastic.

So if the club say that 2355 fans went I to the away end using the turnstyles clicks as a counter why would you dispute it.

Just because there are a lot of fans in one end all singing so that they create an atmosphere and the other fans are spread out over three larger stands.

We sold 4000 season tickets and had a push with bring a buddy vouchers.

First game of the season you would expect ST holders to turn up so 4000 plus 1382 buddy fans/ walk ups sounds entirely plausible.

As I understand it from a Hull fan you sold 1800 tickets and then had 555 walk ups again sounds reasonable.

where were these extra Hull fans sitting that you think were there. Was their a spare 1000 of them lurking in with the Giants fans in the Riverside or John Smiths stands.

But don't let facts get in the way of a good story.

Yours was the best attendance by any away fans for an ordinary league game for 4 to 5 years at Huddersfield. Well done.

Ever since we stopped being whipping boys away fans have stopped coming to Huddersfield in as big a numbers although after yesterday they might start coming back.

Re: 2015 Attendance Thread : Mon Feb 09, 2015 5:01 pm  

Have the Giants said it was turnstile clicks? Or tickets plus walk ups?

Great turnout from the FC fans today but the capacity of the stand was under 3000 with the sponsors drapes covering 2 of the 5 sections ,i would say about 2600 there,still a great effort

With being pedantic, there are 6 sections, the two with sponsors draping were the two on either end which are half the size of the middle two. Still I was sat in that end and the sections occupied were pretty much full.

Where did you get this info from? It's not on the Giants official website.
