Warning...... One end has been severely worn down due to the Giants getting thrashed tonight. Alert. Did they play the same way in both halves? Giants didn't play at all , gutless. |

Might be hard to shift those all being single seats...but to all intents a full house of around 23,300. and just 1,900 away fans in that figure...Dean's gamble in keeping home fans in the SS has paid of handsomely, we don't have room for 4,000 away fans anymore... The stadium capacity looks to be around bang on for the number of home fans though..not been any turned away this season I don't think. 1,900 tickets for us is a bit pathetic really, we gave you 3,200 when you came to us. We could have probably sold your ground out. The ticket allocation have been poor for us this season and we've sold out nearly all of our allocations. I think the only game we haven't sold out was against Wigan when we still took 5,000 away on a Wednesday night. Villa were the most pathetic, they had a stand closed and refused our request for more tickets. Hope your fans respect our town and don't cause bother you big club.  |

Knowing what we know now perhaps our stadium designers should have built the BR stand roof atop Kilner Bank for large away followings. The view would have been similar to yours for away fans.  |

I keep seeing this "Newcastle have the best away record". Yeah...because they still have to play almost everyone in the top 6 away from home... it's just common sense that they would have a the best away record if they haven't played the best teams away yet. And for us, visa versa |

You gave us just over 6% of your ground and we are giving you almost 8% of ours. Depends how you look at it I guess. Both games will be "sell outs" so I don't think you can complain about the allocation. Granted you'll see some empty seats on Saturday from tickets holders not going etc.. but I also recall seeing plenty of empty seats at SJP last year despite a 52k+ attendance announced. I agree that the Villa thing stinks. If we'd been struggling this season or this game had been pre-Wagner you would almost certainly have been given the full 4k south stand. |

Villa were the most pathetic, they had a stand closed and refused our request for more tickets. I understand where you are coming from, and your frustration, even if it sounds a little arrogant to describe 1900 as a pathetic allocation. Bear in mind, however, that your ground is almost 3 times the size of ours, and your average attendance more than twice ours. More than 3 times most Championship gates, in fact. EDIT: THE POST ABOVE GIVES THE ACTUAL PERCENTAGESMoreover, given that we are doing well this season, and occasionally close to selling out, it makes sense that our chairman prioritises his own fans, not least because of the atmosphere. Why would he concede any potential advantage to visiting supporters at the expense of alienating home fans who want to attend a high profile game? |

We need to crank the noise up to a new level on Saturday. Blast Newcastle off the pitch. Wont have much trouble drowning out their fans. For a supposed top fan base they were the quietest 50,000 fans I have ever heard at their place. The 3200 Town fans out sung them all game. |

If we'd been struggling this season or this game had been pre-Wagner you would almost certainly have been given the full 4k south stand. we are at home?? you fill your home ground, if you can, with as much home support as you possibly can.. do Newcastle offer much more of their ground when Manchester United come to them?? Man Utd would probably be able to shift 7/8/10k tickets would they not?  The geordies forget quickly, they were playing in front of small numbers not that long ago... They also forget that this season the Town support, even those who dont come all that often, are coming to watch us, not Newcastle United.. I have to be honest, I have been fairly dissappointed since coming back into this division in the quality and standard of most of the relegated 'big teams'. The idea that home crowds turn out in large numbers to watch the away team is maybe a bit of a myth now.. We have big games when we are struggling, this season for some time we have had a big game every week, because of us, not the opposition.. |

So what if you could sell our ground out- so can we, even taking into account the pathetic allocation you have! At least those of you lucky enough to have a ticket won;'t need an oxygen mask and binoculars to watch the game Best comment on here for a long time.Spot on. |

We're not in it to satisfy your ticket demands! If you want to play in bigger stadiums- don't get relegated from the PREM!

At least those of you lucky enough to have a ticket won;'t need an oxygen mask and binoculars to watch the game Best comment on here for a long time.Spot on. you do get to plant a flag at Newcastle.. in all seriousness though the ground was built upwards and the supporters who were going to occupy the highest areas were always just cash not real people ...large parts of the ground were developed with only cash in mind, geordies are daft they will buy a seat anywhere and the away support can be lodged up mount kilimanjaro and bollox to them as well.. that does look to be the thinking involved in the building of the ground.. simple truth is, the further you are away, either distance or height, the worse the view and experience will be.. bums on seats but put the seats absolutely anywhere you can fit em in? |

I'm still wondering why anyone would go on another fans forum to give people stick. It looks like he's had enough responses to sift through for one day but if he comes on again maybe I'll just tell him to FOOK off, no one on here gives a sh1t about anything except Town.

Itsmemick i have enjoyed your posts to date, however you have completely misunderstood Huddersfield Towns position on away allocation of tickets.(or maybe you havent  ) I believe we dont actually want to accommodate large numbers of away fans, we dont really want to hear you support your team. We want to place our supporters in the south stand and hear almost exclusive support for Huddersfield Town. I believe our chairman wants to allow/create a home crowd atmosphere above taking extra money from yourselves. Im not sure what the minimum allocation could be, I suspect it might be 1200-1300 I would welcome that and i believe other Town fans would. Its not a hate thing its simply about a home atmosphere being the priority. Also please dont talk about the allocation you give us like its a gift or something generous, its really undesirable to sit miles away from the pitch up in the clouds, it is a truly ridiculous stand (its been said by several other clubs)- but we understand you dont want us to be heard. Thats fine Villa and others probably think the same as us re. away ticket allocation Your chaps should watch it on the TV, its on Sky Times are probably changing some of the little clubs are getting bigger and have principles and maybe will try to fill their own grounds with their own fans. Its not rocket science. Its actually quite nice. Oh and i would drop the "we took 5000 here and 5000 there" its very old fashioned - the fans of the big boys in the premier league laugh at the "great fans, sh*te team" concept, harsh i know but that's what they say. [/quote] I didn't explain myself very well. I wasn't calling Huddersfield pathetic if anybody thought that I was. The comment was aimed at ticket numbers only. I'm sure at some point you will have had less tickets from other clubs than you needed. Also, I've really enjoyed this season and the fans of other clubs are part of the reason. It was the same the last time we were in the division and it was refreshing. |
