2000 travelling huddersfield fans????

Shurely shome mistake?

Standing in the middle of it I would have said more. Maybe Some Saints fans from the other stands or someone who saw it on tv would have a better idea.

There was definitely more than 2000 there. a lot more than at Wire the week before

But you were away................surely 341 would be a generous figure?

I stand on the Pop side almost halfway. I'd put your following around the 2000 mark at least.

Damn good turnout and very supportive right until the end. Didn't do the Wigan walk, stayed to mix with your lads, lots of flags and chants/songs. Fantastic. Your fans did your club proud and contributed greatly to a really good atmosphere. Well done and it was a pleasure to have you as the away support at the last match at KR.

Bloody fantastic turnout Hudds. Ive knocked you in the past, but no more.

Given the amount you brought which puts the likes of Leeds and Bradford to shame, and the way you conducted yourselves, you are now my second favourite team.

Good luck for next season lads

Cheers guys. Here's to 4th time lucky for you at Old Trafford next week.

it is a mistake, we had more than that there,hell they even had to delay kick off to get us all in


i have to say though that was excellent support last night,i think every person supporting fartown sang themselves ho!
question is though,why cant these people come out for more games rather than just the big games,i know most clubs have fans that come out for big games but if half of those who turned out last night started to come regularly our away support would be great.well done fartowners, see you next season.

It is a bit frustrating why more don't come away regularly but the trip was a total nightmare.

The driver couldn't set off on time because of a job he'd done earlier in the day and the law requiring he have a minimum amount away from the wheel and then he didn't even know the way. It was pretty poor TBH, borderline farcical. To then have to queue for 30mins for tickets was insult to injury!

Great turnout from Hudds. I think Eamonn's been playing around with the attendance figures, because there was definately more than thirteeen and a half thousand at the game last night.

Supporters will always turn out for the "bigger" game, ive said before theres nothing wrong with our away support for them games, its convincing them to do it on a weekly basis we struggle, saying that, its nowhere near as bad for the weekly games as gets pointed out.

Nothing for you to see hear Roversmad, you got the week off

exactly, something these dobbins posters seem to forget, the league game at wigan earlier in the season they only took around 400

I would say they brought less that that to the Galpharm for the league match too.

IIRC rovers brought 470ish? very poor

It helps how your portrayed by Sky as well, every week Hemmings makes a comment about x,y,z travelling army, turned out in good numbers etc, i only saw the replay and not the live game but didnt hear one mention of our support nor did i see many shots of our end and what surprised me the most was you couldnt hear us, it was deafening in there at times

the noise was vibrating off the roof at times,but the problem is again, that they sky microphones are all on the popular side so all you hear is the saints fans,same at wire last week,we made some noise but it didn't come across on tv well.

my head is still ringing from the noise around me ------------- Huddersfield allez allez allez

that will take off next year

the claret and gold song took a while to get going but is now a fans favourite,even though many still dont know the correct words

I've watched the match back and Stevo made a comment about your noisy support and how, at that time, it was trying to compete with our rendition of When the Saints. As has been said, the mikes are positioned below the gantry where the Pop side is and that's where all our songs and chants begin and get the noisiest so the away support is always hard pushed to be heard. However, fans like me who actually went to the match heard you loud and clear. The only time you went anything like quiet was towards the end when we ran away with it a bit (and the scoreline in no way reflected the ferocity of the contest IMO). But the flags didnt stop waving and nobody left and I think that was tremendous.

I remember the first time we did that one. There were about 4 of us! Wire away I think it was, a couple of seasons ago.

The commentary box was down the popular side and the mikes above the Saints supporters. I know we out-sung and out-chanted them by a huge margin.
I was really annoyed with how little was made of our support tonight, and no mikes at our end, it was as though we were not going to be able to spoil the party.
Eddie (SKY) mentioned about the Huddersfield supporters setting off earlier to avoid being late at the ticket office, but we were in the ground at 7.30 and the queue for the ticket office was 50 metres long then (Ponner was in it). So it was down to poor distribution and management from Saints.

Some of us have to work until 5 so can't get over any earlier than what we did, hrdly our fault they sold the family tickets from Saints so you had to queue to collect them.

Fantastic to see, hope you can continue to bring numbers. It is an area which I think you have been improving in anyway, but to hear that you took over 2000 is fantastic.

Hopefully those people who aint regulars are encouraged to go to more away games because IMO I enjoy away games more then home ones these days!
