They'd already secured their play off spot and had every right to do just that. Isn't that why you have a squad after all? Why should Wagner care what's happening at the bottom end of the table when he's spent all season ensuring his own side are nowhere near it. I'm firmly of the opinion that a manager should have the right to field whatever team he likes for any game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you believe football only started in 1992 that is. The BBC news channel are a little confused, the rolling headlines said "Huddersfield return to the Premier League for the first time since 72" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackburn should look closer to home if they want to blame anyone for their relegation. What's the point in having a squad if you're not allowed to use it?

The EFL asked Huddersfield for their view of events, not sure if they've responded or indeed what the outcome was. Thought i heard there was to be no further action? I think if it had been mid table opposition then there wouldn't have been any outcry but with Birmingham needing points for safety, it didn't go down too well in Blackburn. Anyway, Huddersfield won't care - they're in t'Premier League! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess he made the right call. What if several had picked up injuries or suspensions for today's game, the fans would have slaughtered him. Anyway, I haven't checked but didnt someone on here say the 'lesser' team he fielded was pretty much the same as the one who held Man C to a draw in the FA Cup earlier this season. Also the fringe players would be busting a gut to impress for a playoff start wouldn't they. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I mean, it's disrespectful and ironic for Blackburn to say he picked a 'weakened' team - they're all prt of a squad that just got promoted to the premier league while they're in the third tier! Manager should be able to manage his squad however he likes! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TV Tom Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 I can't be bothered to read all the posts so apologies if this has already been said but Huddersfield are the first club ever to be promoted with a negative goal difference, Readings wasn't much better either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm of the opinion that you can pick whatever side you want. It wasn't a really weak team they put out. They'd had a bit of a cup run to clog fixtures up. They earned the right.
