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.

Stanley also suffered a slap in the face (albeit, not by cod or sharks laughing) at the hands of Cheltnum. Hopefully, mid-table mediocrity ensues rather than a stuggle for survival.

Be on the look-out for those nasty eels, JR,  especially if  their handler is wearing rubber gloves -- shocking !!

Perhaps those nasty Elecky Eels could / should be issued, by the dozen , to the stewarding staff at Wem ber lee then perhaps a few international games could take place before real football fans , well when they are permitted back in again !!

A very well thought out solution Brian! Imagine if it were truly the case and said eel could, surreptitiously, be inserted down the trouser leg of said youths!  laughinglaughing  Even better if the stewards could actually activate the eel at will! The mind boggles. 

I'm interested to hear what steps are being taken against the 'Ungarians?

Town won a hard fought match on Saturday against a team who came to niggle and foul ably aided and abetted by a referee who’ll have better matches.

At a quarter past four on Saturday morning 150 Town supporters set off from the JSS by coach to Elland Road to the start of a 22 mile sponsored walk back to the stadium via the Shay in Halifax. 
The walk was in memory of Frank Worthington who played for Town, Leeds and Halifax among others including a number of caps for England.

 Money raised will go to the Yorkshire Air Ambulance and the Alzheimer’s Society.

Those who walked took a lap of honour round the ground before the match and it was heartwarming to see every Hull City supporter stand and applaud as they walked past the away section. If the  match had been played in the same spirit it would have been much better

Hats off to the Terriers’ fans for their efforts in fundraising (particularly for the Air Ambulance- whom our golf club also raise funds for) and for the victory over Hull, who in my opinion, play football akin to their rugby league neighbours πŸ˜‚ Good on them for their applause though πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

You’re spot there.

I’m not sure if it’s currently the case but before the pandemic screwed everything up and the Pedal for Pounds sponsored cycle rides were in full swing they reckoned that every time the Air Ambulance was tasked to a Huddersfield post code that call out was paid for by the football club through its foundation. 
That sort of makes you proud to support the club.

As an aside there was what I always knew as a “ flag day” , at the ground on Saturday, you know people collecting money in buckets, Now I haven’t carried cash for a long time and having passed a couple of people collecting I said to one that they needed to be contactless . The chap replied that they had card readers nearer the stadium. So a first for me I made a donation with my mobile phone. Technology heh. The charity was Forget Me Not which provides special treats for terminally ill children.
