Shame the frankly amazing efforts of the Huddersfield Chairman/board are not being matched by the town as a whole.

The way the Giants are playing and with the utterly superb facilities you have there, you should be getting 10,000+ crowds for every single home game.

I know you've made a lot of progress, but given the amazing progress of the club and the generosity with regards to ticket pricing, you should be doing even better. Maybe a Wembley victory is the key? Do people think the crowds would swell were that to happen?

If i remember correctly there was only 8k at Saints on Friday. That to me is far worse for a team with the amount of success they've had over the last decade. Give us the same amount of success and i think we'd be nearer the 15k mark.

It will help

The length of time Huddersfield languished in the doldrums cannot be underestimated, and the damage done by being flogged year after year still leaves even some posters on this site thinking Hudds are easy beats, how will "casuals" think any differently?

A final appearance and especially winning one will go a long way to telling people that Huddersfield are a force again.

Failing that another season where we reach into the top 4, will drip into peoples heads we are at the top.

in 10 years we have more than doubled our home gates - probably closer to tripling them - on the back of 1 cup final and 1 play-off appearance.
compare that to say, Saints who by that sum should be averaging over 50,000 but they arent and never will.
i think our crowds are very acceptable considering what this club has achieved over the last 30 - 40 years and should rightly be applauded.
how long did it take Bradford,Leeds,Hull to get well over 10,000 every game ?
