Giants v Wolves this Saturday

Tickets going well so far. Sold out of our allocation of seated tickets already and sold out of our first 200 standing allocation within the first couple of hours. The club reckon it could be a sell out so get your tickets ASAP.

Getting mine tomorrow, but 200 is hardly selling like hotcakes, surely they will be selling on the gate?

I need to get our tickets as they are saying the free under 5 tickets are only available pre bought! I'll be there even if I only have a hour to make it!!! So theres another reason to get our tickets if we're late at least they can't refuse entry if we have a ticket!!

No match for me again seen as its being played on saturday evening when i work

Tickets sorted ! me + 2 love going to warrington ...getting a bit of stick at work though lost 3 times to em this season i keep saying it doesnt matter as long as we win when it matters !! lets hit 'em hard giants !!

Who else is going and how are you getting there? Is anyone stuck for a lift, or anyone with spaces left in their car?

Theoretically we're stuck but I doubt you'll be setting off as late as I can set off!!

At the moment it's the 5.26 train meaning we'll miss most of the first half, but I'm trying to persuade my folks into giving us a lift over according to the routeplanner it's 49 min journey from town centre it's whats around Manchester at that time that the problem!!

Seems a bit quiet leading up to one of our biggest games of the season??

Am going, driving up from Londonon saturday morning!

3 of us going to this on Saturday.

Cant wait. We've got to put one past em this time!

I cant stand Warrington beating us!

I cant stand listening to their fans going on!!

I cant wait for this game, it should be a cracker and i think we can have them. Hope we have a fair few fans with us so we can shut them warrington fans up. Come on Giants we can do it.

Well we did it. How tense was that finish!!!!!!!!

Just watched the first half and I had Goose bumps through the whole half!

Awesome!

That result was SWEEEEEETTTTTTTT!!!

Our fans were fantastic. Nearly as good as the 17 that wore the claret and gold with honour

Thought Nathan Brown was going to jump on the pitch and run along with Leroy for his try hehe.

Great wasn't it?? And to all those who said I was mad to attempt both town match and the Giants one well I made all 90 mins plus the safety sweep and stand down at the town game and made it to Warrington with 5 mins to spare!!

I am so proud of the lads, they gave their all last night. Fantastic result. My nerves were jangling from the start of the second half though, it seemed like every time we scored any points they got the ball back from the kick off! What a time to come up with a win at Warrington. Lost 6 times to them before yesterday I believe. Wow is all I can say. My heart cant take much more! Twice in two weeks we have been on tenterhooks for the finish!!!!

Nathan on the sidelines willing Leroy on to the finish was brilliant, that has to go up on YouTube! "Go on my Son" I think he said....he was there with him right to the line. Paul Cook (I think) can also be seen in the background as Leroy sets off jumping up and down screaming at him from the touchline. And if that wasnt enough encouragement every Giants fan in the land watching was willing him over the line....great try!!

Cant wait to see how we do next week!

34-22 the same score as we beat Wire in 2007 when Rocket Rod went the full length of the pitch. How weird is that!!

I haven't seen Brown willing Leroy on, but I think every Fartowner behind those sticks were just as excited as he galloped towards us.

Oh it's worth watching Matt. It'll probably show it on the Super league show tonight at 5pm I think.

That moment when Nathan did that showed how much passion and commitment he has for the club...it was a nice moment and very worth seeing. Another similar moment for me last week was when Danny Brough passed to Leroy for Leroy to give us the win...he knew Leroy was going in to score and he turned to the crowd and punched the air with a big grin on his face...showed me he felt like he was now one of ours, settled and happy and commited to the cause.

Nice bit of trivia Ponner....our first Super League Victory came against Wire on 31.05.1998 final score 28-6 to the Giants...I am hoping for a repeat of the 1953 CC Final Score if we get picked to play Saints - 15-10 to us - will be another heart pounding game for us to watch but the perfect result

Amazing feeling when Leroy came towarsds us. We went mental!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just watched it. Not many coaches would be that animated and so caught up in the moment. Mind you the delight on Leroy's face was clear and his reaction to go straight to the crowd to celebrate says a lot about how much this all means to him.
