we are now unbeaten away from home in 8 games is it? since leeds last july we have won every away game, including wins at odsal for the first time in 40 years, a first ever win at the KC plus resounding victories over warrington,wigan and catalans,and 2 wins over cas, one a 40-14 stuffing the other a closely fought game against a team very much in form.

had this been saints or leeds or wigan,warrington, in fact probably any other team im sure people would make a fuss out of it? maybe its because people are still loathe to give huddersfield credit for anything,but it feels like we are in the shadows all the time, which to me suits me just fine
i think we are just going about our business quietly and efficiently and maybe a lot of folk still think" its only huddersfield"

im impressed with NB so far, he hasnt let emotions get the better of him like some other coaches have and he hasnt lavished too much praise on the players, but if we keep this runof away form up then surely the media and other fans might just start noticing a big claret and gold juggernaut rolling towards old trafford :)


I like the way he keeps the player's feet on the ground by either calling them dumb or 'not the smartest' all the time. He knows there's still a long way to go to get to where he wants to be with this club. I also get the impession the players like playing for him because he gives them a bit more freedom on the pitch. Getting players to enjoying playing for you when you call them dumb nearly every week is a neat trick.

The old 'this is our forum for us 'chestnut? you sound like a child on a street corner 'go away this is only for us'. On the vast majority of the forums on this site (all but 3 in fact) everyone is welcome and people discuss things in a friendly adult manner, not an option here it would seem, as all you lot seem to want to do is start arguments for no reason, with someone that never wanted one in the first place.

I didnt come on here and start gobbing off i merely pointed out an error (which the original poster had no problem with it would seem)and when you replied i at first thought you wanted a bit of banter i didnt realise it was the start of a major hissy fit.

I wont bother posting on here again, which in your little mind you will probably see as some kind of victory, even though its just sad that that in a sport which is famous for the friendliness its fans have towards one another, you cant even be civil to someone who was being civil to you. I often post on the wakey board and even though theres a rivalry and not everyone gets on all the time, they are welcoming and will talk to other fans in a friendly and adult way, you it would seem could learn alot from there fans.

As for marsdengiant you still sore about me making you look silly, go on then if i'm an embarresment to most cas fans, get say 5? that think i am if its true, but you wont be able to, the honest truth is that noone on the cas board has a problem with me and never have. i would say that your embarresment to most hudds fans but it seems you attitude and level of intellignece fits right in here. Still you can always send me another pm full of childish insults, and say at the end that you got the last word as you wouldnt open a response :lol: That one made me laugh for ages.


Wow. Just wow.






Fornicate my fortune

It is dreary that we have sickly sentimental media coverage of some clubs but limited acknowledgement of progress by the Giants.

However it is getting better. Eddie Hemings and Phil Clarke both pointed out that we were missing 5 first teamers when we beat Cas.

Also we have played 3 home games so far. For each game we have have had our highest SL crowd ever versus that team.


Is this the same Phil Clarke who last night kept saying Hull were third and that Hull was a true test for Quins against a top team and the result against Huddersfield should be taken with a pinch as salt as it flattered us?

I assume Sky only employ one Phil Clarke so yes..the same Phil Clarke.

I think Clarke is right that the response of a club to a loss the previous week is a test. Furthermore, when we played Quins I must have been one of the few people who did not expect a 40 win. I thought we would win by 6-8 pts. So I did , and do , see the Giants and quins as being closer than a 40 pt margin would suggest. (I think we are better!).

The point I made about Eddie and Phil mentioning our weakened side stands.

Spot on Meast. I'm happy for them to carry on ignoring us. Let them focus on Warrington and wonder why such a great club with such great players struggle season after season.

By the way, I have nothing agaainst Warrington - they are a great club with top notch fans - but it justs irks me when they bang on about them so much on Sky. I blame Paul Cullen!
