It was a nothing fixture, really. Only heard the score after the match had finished.



"50-14? Oh"



While on the other side of the Pennines, the culmination of the football league season captures the imagination of millions, if not billions.



There is something seriously apathetic directed from League fans toward their own sport these days, in both League and Cup. It feels like there's something [imissing[/i and soulless about today's game. Anyone willing to place concrete into these abstractions?

Of course not, but when Davy goes, who will buy a club that has nowt coming through the turnstiles?

His son I believe.

Decent team, decent league position,decent cup run,crap support,can`t figure it.

firstly - that is not a 'normal' crowd , we dont get 2,500 crowds usually , there were reasons for it being that low - there was only 500 more for Widnes v Saints in last round, cup crowds are low all over .........now if we were to get 2,500 in our next league game then i may start to worry...............till then i will enjoy my team's exciting brand of entertaining rugby and look forward to been 80 minutes away from another cup final - that was the prize for winning todays game BTW !!

Exactly, 4000 HTFC fans went to MK dons for a 12.30 kick off for a 3rd division football match yesterday - as long as i've been following Fartown we've always had the problem of the people of Huddersfield preferring to watch the football team than the rugby.



Nothing us rugby fans can do to change their mind.

Pathetic crowd for a big town and a v good team. Halifax are twice the club Hudds are.

Go into Huddersfield town centre tomorrow and tell them then........cant drag em in can we !

Poor crowd by us but Halifax twice the club do me a favour

It's all swings and roundabouts.



Roll back 25 years.



Fax riding high with a wealthy backer.

Hudds in the toilet without a pot to pizz in.



Roles are now reversed. Neither club is twice that of the other.

Not makin excuses but the game was all pay, on tv, was played the same time the premier league season finished,the kick off time meant that the away support was literally 0,the game wasn't very attractive,the opposition meant most people thought it be a walkover, the crowd was over a quarter of our ST holders,how many other clubs would get over a quarter of ST holders attending in same circumstances? The people of huddersfield are still very apathetic toward the giants after years of misery and failure

We sing swing low sweet chariot singing for the claret and gold and have done for years, as for the allez chant,that came about from joining in with the catalans fans in perpignan and the last edinburgh magic weekend
