There was a nice section at the end of Saturday’s show when Colin signed off plus some highlights of the last four years. Ashton Gate popped up a couple of times.

Huddersfield Town away match day thread

Agree it’s poor. If they’re going to use it for audio as well, they need to commentate for those who don’t have pictures. The long silences don’t tell us a lot! I was going to cancel it after today’s match anyway so I’m not charged over the Summer but hopefully they get it sorted for next season. -
Makes sense not to risk him for this last match my view. Key for us that he has a well prepared off season and that he is fit to last next season. I also wonder if Benarous picking up an ACL injury also came into the thought processes.

Agree - certainly not the worst season. Since we were promoted to the Championship in 2015, in terms of points total, we’ve had 3 worse seasons and 3 better seasons. Probably sums some this season - some good things, some poor things - middling. Score plenty of goals though so there’s a positive. To be honest, I wish the season still had more to run as feels like we have finally clicked. I have more concern about the break and whether we will lose players/the current momentum. -
Yes I was surprised. Just watched this. Wonder if club finances have anything to do with these decisions not to renew contracts - perhaps hoping for cheaper options.

Me too. Lived in Exeter for most of the 90s. Nice city and nice old school ground (with a railway station!)

Agree - well done Exeter and about time! They’ve been knocking on the door of promotion for years and this from BBC Sport reinforces that: 2022 - Promoted to League One 2021 - Missed play-offs by three points 2020 - Beaten play-off finalists 2019 - Missed play-offs by one point 2018 - Beaten play-off finalists 2017 - Beaten play-off finalists

What a shame. I was hoping it was Nathan Byrne given his antics all those years ago v Swindon!
-
He was asked this Q in the pre-match press conference yesterday. Sensibly said that he’ll play whatever system suits the players at his disposal. And having a reliable defence is the first criteria for whether you can play a back 4; defensive midfielder is a secondary issue.

“Most of the squad will still be here next year” - NP

Agree nothing to see here. It was just a factually accurate line from NP stating the bleeding’ obvious. -
What a good idea.

Ryley needs his own TV series!

So apart from Semenyo, Weimann, what have the Romans ever done for us?!

I reckon Steve Cotterill runs Shrewsbury’s twitter account ?

Sums it up. Plus reinforces how well Luton are doing.

Followed by a call from Nige - are you really really sure?!

Not too many home midweek games, or a slightly earlier kick off time on occasions to make last train home etc - even the odd 7.30pm or 7pm would be helpful (kick offs always used to be 7.30pm years ago). That may not work for everyone but flexibility on evening ko time would be good to give everyone a chance as @Bristol Robsuggests (eg kids). I didn’t think I would, but I quite enjoyed the 5.30pm kick off time on Saturday - plenty of time to do other stuff beforehand and then not home too late (10pm) so if we have to move for TV at the weekend, that would be my preference rather than 12noon or 7.45pm.

Same here. Really enjoyed it. Even in the first half, there was a lot to like in our defending. We looked great on the break and should have scored more.- 545 replies

Weimann to get the winner and his 20th goal (please!) -
I’d like to see him stay. And here he is ‘coaching’ the lads a few weeks ago - made me chuckle. Settled in well.
