I'm starting this thread again because it seems to have been a casualty of the change over to the new site. The Terriers scecured another away win last night at Burton. Two wins in a row now after a barren spell. It'll all go pear shaped on Friday when we go to Norwich because the game is to be televised , we haven't won on the telly for ages.

Thanks Steve. I think it will depend on the strength of team City put out. If they're serious about the Cup they might see a trip to Middlesbrough as winnable if they put Town away, and therefore might play a strong side. It seems we might view the weekend's match against Newcastle as being more important and play a few squad players. Having said that  Herr Wagner believes that any of his players are capable of slotting into the side and doing well. On the evidence of past performances it's hard to disagree. UTT

If you're losing at Hartlepools then you really do need to be worrying😱

I aim to always be polite . 

If you want the definition of a drubbing look no further than the Etihad last night. The Terriers did very well to only lose 5-1. City had a full team out, with the exception of Silvia, and we had our second team on the pitch. I've not seen them give the ball away so easily for a long time. It looks as though we will now have to concentrate on the league.🙁

The writing was on the wall as soon as they announced their line up. When I saw the names Aguero, Sterling, De Bruyne and Sane against our second string back four I knew we were in for long night.

But what did you think when you saw Clownio Bravo in nets 😱?

I don't know what Joe Hart did to upset Pep, preseason, but he certainly did it big time.

Great game though, last night, end to end stuff, and wonderful atmosphere created by the Town fans.

Next round Middlesborough, Saturday dinner time. £5 for pensioners, have to go to that one!

Hi Pliers, I didn't really think about the keeper I was dazzled by the four superstars. 7200 Town fans can certainly make some noise and were singing even when we were 4-1 down. Clownio certainly gifted us our goal but saved another chance with his legs late on in the first half. The reaction from some of the home support was interesting.

Good luck at the Riverside, the OH is a died in the wool City supporter but got a bit disallusioned when the team seemed to engineer the sacking of Mancini.

Thanks Steve, don't forget you've played two more games than us. The trouble is that one of them is thus afternoon against the current leaders.UTT.
