Nearly all in [iresponce [/ito giants fans, who are quite rightly ribbing us after a local derby win after we lorded over them for long enough, the wheel will turn...hopefully, but its their go on top at the moment, but you, and they, have to expect some back if you have a go at Bradford on a Bradford message board. Pretty sure all the huds fans have enjoyed this thread and taken the majority of comments for what they are, nonsence on an internet messgeboard between rival fans.


We have and do, were you at Odsal on Sunday or for the Donny game or Leeds game? The situation doesn't preclude any rivalary and banter though does it?


Hilarious.


Which people? If its Giants fans you mean plenty of Giants fans might have helped, and thanks to them, some definately didn't however and came on here and put comments on the vt to tell us so. In fact there is comment about p!ssing in any collection bucket form a giant fan on page 2 or 3 of this thread.


You mean like outside any sporting venue in the known universe when the home team lose? Shocking. You show me someone who says their fans never leave early under any circumstance and I'll show you a liar.



Really? Find and link to one post on here that said someone wasn't going to a game because we might lose. But each to there own anyway, no one has to go to any game, its all a choice.



Yes, obviously, and? Who isn't respecting the players? only in the last few games the Leeds, Donny and Giants players were all applauded off by the popular terrace at the end of the game.

I'm gutted I'm going to miss the return match at the galpharm. Hope you bring more than 700 fans or you are going to look very silly indeed. We sold out the allocation of tickets you sent and many more paid on the day so at least 700 giants fans attended- but still some Bradford fans stick their hands over their ears and go "la la la" looking at how many supporters were ACTUALLY at the game and not based on the inflated figures The bulls quote I would guess that the giants attendance this year will equal that of (the real figures for) Bradford. But that's not something that the blinkered fans on here will ever admit to. What I can say is that our support will continue to increase next year.
If you want to bring up the same old stuff at least stick to the lack of silverware comments-they actually do have some credence unlike the supporter comments which now do not.

Er, we do. Where has anyone criticised a single fan for actually turning up?






Really? Well, you said



Well, yes! So, it's bollox, because at the same time as you cannot believe us criticising people for not travelling the short distance from Huddersfield, you are calling the stayaways "not true fans". A sort of textbook example of bollox, really.

Look, we know how many fans come from other clubs. This is because we can see them. And comparatively very few come from Huddersfield. I had sort of assumed that now you are top-end of the league, the away support would significantly increase, but it hasn't. Only Catalans and London bring significantly fewer than you do, and given how close Huddersfield is, that seems remarkable.

In terms of our away following to your place, of your top 35 home gates in SL, Bradford have accounted for 11 of them, far more than any other club.

In contrast, in our list of biggest home gates, the very first time Huddersfield features is at no. 57, so cut your bullcrap and face the facts.

How could you see them? For one due to the weather most people had their shirts covered so from my view in the stand you couldn't tell who was who-the other thing is unlike many others we don't go in what you class as the "away" end when we come to odsal- we tend to spread out all over. You sent us just 500 tickets- people had to be turned away from our ticket office because we sold out of them -FACT. Many had to pay on the day. personally given the terrible conditions I think 700-800 is a very reasonable following. No we don't have the best following in the league- wire, Wigan, Leeds hull and saints are above us. Given Bradford has double the population of Huddersfield either you are doing badly or we are doing well!

FA is Thierry Halibut for those new to this forum. He sees everything.

No, I'm not. Well, no sillier than I do normally...

And, like Halibut, maybe counting is not his forté which is why he became a lawyer not an accountant...?

Well, I sort of look ahead of me.


Didn't you notice that they tend to clap and jump up and down and stuff at directly opposing things?







Well, if any were hiding behind cars or buildings, I'll concede I couldn't see them.


Except that f you'd asked, you could've had another 10,000 or more. FACT. You got what you asked for. FACT. You didn't ask for any more. FACT. This was because you asked for the number you presumed you could sell. FACT.
=#0080FF[size=85Rule 724.1b: Whenever people say "FACT", they are invariably either taking the p., or losing an argument - FACT[/size.


I expect you probably do. That seems to be the trouble, if you think about it. And I am not disrespecting those who attended in any way. The only point in all this is the delusion many Shudds posters seem to have that they are a well-supported visiting team at Odsal, in the face of plain reality. Compared to most teams- you really aren't. Compared to the top teams, you really, really, really aren't.


Hallelujah.


So, you either didn't read the attendance stats I posted (which are "FACT" as you would say

) or else you chose to ignore them and post more drivel. Interesting tactic.


It was my 29th birthday yesterday and my counting faculties are still as keen as they were when I was XXI.

the 2 end blocks of terracing at the side were mostly giants fans......either you chose to ignore them or your view was obscured.

And before you say anything a Bulls supporting friend told me it was mainly giants due to the fact that he was behind the goals and saw us all clapping our team off after the bulls had left !!

What did I miss?

You are Thierry Allibert and I claim my five euros.....

Well I sit directly opposite those two blocks, in the stand. IMO it was around 50/50 at the most, judging by whose umbrellas flew up in the air at various times in response to what. Couple of tight-knit groups, most round the edges were Bulls.

But who gives a toss anyway about a pìssing contest about whose supporters are the most "true", and how many turn up? There are no bonus points for how many speccies your team has in the ground. Just as well, since if you did HKR would be runaway leaders every year, with the competition already sewn up by early March...

Or maybe it was six? Or seven...?

Mmm, it does fluctuate that exchange rate doesn't it!!

As does Hallibut's tackle count, which given your reference to five (euros) was rather more what I had in mind!

From where I was sat I definitely coudn't see more Giants fans than Bulls in that area.

Be surprised if you could from your settee...

Ah! I see what you mean. It does work both ways though.......

The solution may be for Uncle Alibert to count Huddersfield attendees, then everybody will be happy.

I think his one, two, miss a few technique might not be appreciated by Huddersfield fans three, four, five and six.

Not many, though we regularly get 'em. There is a difference though between a ing contest, which invariably consists of wildly exaggerrated claims which the exaggerees (I just made that up) claim as FACT, and the rare opportunity for anally retentive saddos, who compulsively note such facts and figures, getting a chance to use them to shoot such claims down

Hull KR









?????....now i know your been silly

The only ones making it into a peeing contest are you lot- you are the ones that bring it up every year. I'm just giving the facts. You stick to your fiction if it makes you feel more secure.
Like most other giants fans I'm really not bothered how many turn up- id be happy if it was just me and Daz as long as the business is being done on the field. Crowds don't win points .

Looks like your sarcasm detector needs recalibrating...?
