There's a place about half a mile from me where they've had three times as much snow as here. Leeds, you'll have noticed, is a large city which means it is typically warmer at ground level than somewhere rural with the same clouds overhead. Which makes a big difference to how much snow sticks. I'm pleased the Leeds game is on.

I’m not sure you can class Leeds Road in Huddersfield as ‘rural’.

And Headingley isn’t in a city centre.

Its moot anyway I fully expect all games to be on in West Yorkshire, the sun is now shining and the snow is stopping.

The issue at Huddersfield is that the staff couldn't get in, a lot of them live in rural area's between the town and the Pennines, as most of you will know, large areas of Huddersfield and it's surrounds are very hilly and rural.

Hopefully everyone manages to get in and get going.

I haven't been able to get my van out to get to work neither have 4 others who live in the area.

I suspect it's a totally different scenario in other places?

[Just Browny]

Game on, great news.

[meast]

All fans to be accommodated in the lower tier.

Cas fans take note -

'Away Supporters (Castleford) will still be situated in the Magic Rock Brewing stand as normal, but are urged to pre-buy with the Ticket Office being understaffed due to the weather.

The Ticket Office is open, but as above, fans are urged to pre-buy online to minimise disruption.'

It's a big long urban road from memory!

Well there doesn't appear to be much interest in this one.

A try apiece after 15 minutes and two softer tries you will never see.

That was diabolical by Edwards, absolutely pathetic attempt.

[Old Frightful]

No wonder he's sometimes called Kenny Everett...

[Ragingbull]

Edwards is a complete waste of a jersey and has been for some time.  Pathetic that.

Great start by Kenny Everett

[ATLANTISMAN]

Lovely club Huddersfield however support locally its pathetic (No dig at those that turn up) no excuse for the weather if it was football there would be many more there.

 

Looks awful on TV

So why don't you write to Huddersfield, and any other club for that matter, with your innovitive solutions to apathy in the local populus. 

Can you post a copy on here so we can all learn.

Bottom line is football rules in Huddersfield sadly 

There is no solution the Giants are a Championship fans based wise.

Thought Westerman got a bum deal from the ref there.

Soccer rules everywhere, in places where there is no competing soccer club soccer will dominate interest.

I look forward to your solution.

Bottom of the pile that dig.

[bratman]

Huddersfield tactics... run at Edwards near the line

[MZH]

Rubbish from Edwards again. At least it wasn't through a lack of effort this time, but really naive for an experienced player. Cas really can't defend scrums this year can they.

I thought Cudjoe knocked that ball back in the air 

[Old Frightful]

He's some player Will Pryce.

So what's the solution elsewhere if there is none there. Other places face similar problems.

Kenny is having a total and complete Weston
