The Linesman that patrol the Dolman side are having an end of season party to celebrate this news. Last season in E32 for us as well I think @Graham c. Like you, we'll be looking to move to LS wings as @TomSutton will be off to Uni.

Thanks @Davefevs, as i said on the FBC podcast this morning, i was half way down Ashton Road at this point . From this screen shot, the ref got her sightlines absolutely spot on. Shame a few Huddersfield supporters have chosen to take it personally.

I do wonder whether we are seeing a 80% fit Twine at the moment? A few times he's got into shooting positions and not been able to either generate the power/accuracy that he has demonstrated in his career. Obviously had his injury issues at Burnley as well and although only still 24, he does look a player who is "prone" to Injuries unfortunately. That said, teams are aware of Twine and having him on the pitch opens up space for other City players. So from a team perspective having him back has been a positive (results wise of course over the last few weeks). When talking of transfer fees, McCrorie's fee at the moment looks a bit heavy based on the skillset he has demonstrated so far. Let's see what a pre season does for him, but unless we are able to get him for £2.5-3m I would pass. We would also need to bring in a number of players next season to allow us not to rely on a "fragile" player.

@Davefevs will be interesting to see what happens with Sykes in the summer. Entering the last year of his contract and probably not unreasonably asking for a better deal that what he arrived on from Oxford. He'll have other suitors in the Championship as well of course. Wouldn't be at all surprised to see him move on rather than lose him for free at the end of the season. I don't want that of course, but he's an established international player now with no bad stats in the division over 2 seasons, he'll expect a decent deal no doubt.

I'd like to personally congratulate Dominic Hyam for one of the most inept performances I've seen from a visiting centre back. Why Eustace kept him on at half time and took Wharton off is anyone's guess, but he was able to cluster it again with our third (just like the first 2) in the second half. Thank you Dominic for an entertaining display

Went to that game. Tues night away at Sunderland, what was I thinking??? Got home at 3 30 am, ready for work at 8. Crazy game, but a great goal by Soren.

When you look at the communication from this time last year around "record sales etc etc", it's telling that we are now 10 days on from the start of the process and no figures have been released. It must be starting to dawn on even the most clueless at the club (Hello Jon) that the fanbase is not happy and that some big decisions are going to have to be made to correct the trajectory we are going in. Although the international break came at just the right time for Manning and the club, the restless supporters have been stewing in the background. Not quite sure how tomorrow is going to go really. In any other given season playing probably the best team in the division would afford the manager a bit of a pass. Got this feeling that unless the performance itself is substantially better tomorrow, then the boos will start to ring out again live on Sky. Not a pretty scenario for anyone connected with the club.

He really is the most boring public speaker. I wish he would talk less about what the players are going to do and focus on how the management team have been working on their game management and intent. Tinnion spoke about him "learning on the job", well he took over a team of seasoned Championship players who he's failed to develop or enhance in any way. He may be excellent on those FA coaching courses, but now is the time to be brave in your selection/formation/leadership and tactics. Let's see real improvement in the next week, or it's going to be even more uncomfortable for both the Management and the club.

Just from an age perspective Archie Gray really stands out in this group. What a player he is going to become in the next few seasons. Best young talent I've seen down the Gate in a long time.

Is Tom Headford still playing for Cribbs @headhunter? 34, but looks 10 years younger

Where do you park Harry? I used the park and ride. It worked well going up to the ground, but we were left queuing for 20 mins afterwards to get back down the hill of doom....

@Harry Reyes made an excellent penalty save against Walsall at a critical point of the game, as well as 2 x 1 on 1 saves. He's quite small, but a excellent shop stopper at that level. Bunker played CDM against Walsall, wasn't great and was subbed off after 58 mins for Omotoye (who went on to win the penalty, that was never a pen.. ) With two really good runner in Doidge and McAllister up top (alongside Omotoye), Cotts has really given them a chance of staying up. Playing Sutton at home this weekend, massive game... C'mon Cotts.

Went to see FGR vs Walsall at the New Lawn last Sat. Walsall technically far the better team, but Cotts has got FGR motivated and organised and they produced a fantastic result. Just got given the other day this book, many thanks @TomSutton. A great read

Fill out the squad photo with the 4 keepers as well. Was hoping to see the mythical "no knees" Murphy in the photo.
