Huddersfield Town away match thread
The Journalist replied to Jerseybean's topic in The Havanatopia Match Day Archive
I’m a big fan but he gave the ball away probably four or five times in succession, was clearly tiring and if I’m an attacking sub I’m absolutely dying to get on and have a go at this heap of shite. -

Keeping Bell on here is doing nobody any favours - the player included. -

Really?! James, King and Scott are running the game. -

Superb timing from me, you can’t deny it. -

King’s been excellent. -

I threw the current showing in as a safety blanket. Worth also adding, there’s no way they come back out after half-time and play this badly again so we need to score now. -

These lot are the worst team I’ve seen this season on current showing. -

How is that not a penalty on Sykes? I don’t think the defender expects him to bring it down and clearly goes straight through the back of him. The referee 100% gives that ANYWHERE else on the pitch. -
Could We Realistically Have Come Out Any Better?
The Journalist replied to Silvio Dante's topic in Football Chat
I was actually thinking about this after the game without knowing Tinnion had spoken about it. Two midfielders and two centre-halves? Assuming we’re happy with what we’ve got in goal. -
Couldn’t disagree more. We barely touched the ball for the first half an hour the last time to faced them. We were nowhere near them. Tonight, we gave them genuine 50-50 match for the first 30 minutes and then stuck in there until the last 20. Dunno why I’m bothering, though. It’s like trying to tell Robbored that Gary Johnson did a half-decent job with us and that Danny Wilson wasn’t really the messiah.

If fully fit and affordable, keeping him is a no brainer. We won’t be able to sign better.

Hope this is very much a stop-gap. Big TFG vibes. Would like to think we may look at Umbro given the Bristol Bears deal.

You can’t be too far off a call-up at this rate.

Sunderland away match thread

I thought we played really well. We were on the ropes a bit for 15 minutes or so after they scored, but we deserved at least a point over the piece. I’m genuinely really chuffed for not just the manager and players for everything they’ve put in but also the fans who’ve stayed behind them home and away. It’s been a long three years for City fans, really - football without supporters thanks to Covid and then, by and large, some pretty poor stuff since. It’s not been easy following that lot up and down the country, I’m sure. But I feel like, after a long time putting the foundations in among a whole lot of subsidence caused by previous incumbents, the walls are finally starting to go up and everyone’s got something a bit more tangible to look at - a young, hungry team playing good football and getting the results they deserve. Well done all and hope you all have a good night. Enjoy it, it’s been a while coming. -
Just feels like he hardly ever gives the ball away, wherever he receives it and whether he’s passing short or long. He’s a really good player.

It's genuinely difficult to pick our front three on Saturday and it feels like it's been a long time since we were last able to say that. I think you can make a good case for Mehmeti or Bell and whoever gets left out will feel hard done by. I'd probably edge towards Bell purely because his movement is so good and, in my opinion, he could offer more on transition when you're looking to break. But, I mean... quite exciting either way, innit?
