Gotta say i was hoping to break 10k yesterday, nothing on anywhere near us, not on sky, Saints brought a good few over.

Is our hardcore base around 8k ?

Robbie has his work cut out to increase our base support.

Dont give me the "it was raining" card, as far as i could see, we were all sat undercover.

Not knocking the 9k but surely 10 was achievable against Saints.

i think your spot on lee, our hardcore is around 7500-8000 it's gonna take a massive effort to get 10k im afraid.
the amount of people in town and in the yorkshire rose after game who didnt have a clue what all these shirts were and that there was a game on still amazes me.

Jeez we used to average 4k and wonder if we could get to 5 or 6....and then 7....8 etc.

the trend is up. Our average SL gates have doubled! For many young to middle aged fans these are attendances they have never before witnessed.

The much improved community work and things like the school blitz stuff by players is gradually bearing fruit.

Indeed, you wanna go further back then a 1k average was seen as a result

But

On the back off 4 years of steady growth, surely we should be hitting 10k gates for when the "big boys" come into town.

was hoping for 10k too... but the rain must of put a few off, doesnt take much nowadays

had a guy telling me i was in his seat!!!? only sat there for years..then he got his season ticket out and realised he was in wrong bit, part timer?!

still at least the support is going the right way

hardcore of around 7k now

i agree lee,we should be hitting 10k and i think people are just waiting to see pictures in examiner of us holding a trophy to decide nows the time to support the top sports team in huddersfield.
im pretty sure should we keep doing well and not be messed around by sky, we could and should hit 10k a few times this season.

What was the deal with the FM stand yesterday? There was no-one in there...was it shut?

Closed it cos of weather and stuck everyone in Britannia.

7,483 for corresponding fixture last season when we were going well can not remember if it was on sky or not

yes it was, friday night i think.

Thing is with moving the FM lot.....although it made the BR stand look fuller i thought it diluted the usual poor atmosphere in there even more because there were more non singers in there!

Plus i had one or 2 people complaining to me , and i understood their point, that they've had to pay full admission to get into the BR stand whereas people who bought the cheap FM season tickets knowing they were buying a seat open to the elements and risked getting soaked on days like yesterday were moved and got a seat for free because it was raining ....!

Shows we have fans that will pretty much moan bout anything
