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.

Yes I'm a happy bunny. A nicely crafted win for the Terriers. A good bounce back from a poor show in midweek.

Plymouth int' cup reminds me of when we played them in the 1960s and I was there. We went by train leaving Huddersfield at 10ish on Friday night arriving at Plymouth at 6 in the morning.

The thing that sticks in my mind was that the daffodils were out in Home Park yet when we finally got back home there was about 4 inches of snow. Oh and Town won 2-1 I think.

My heart aches and a drowsy numbness pains my sense, as though of hemlock I had drunk. (Keats)

What a drubbing ! They won three of the last four and then do that!  and pick up two more injuries. Half the first eleven are now out with long term injuries, they're getting injured at the rate of two or three per match.

Hey ho UTT Rog 😢

Oh, for a draught of Vintage  wink

One down after 3 Minutes, then Second-Half-Crewe [ just one word cool ] got stuck in and even when the Cobblers decided it was not foot ball but Kick Men  they could not stop The Railwaymen  !!

 

 

 

 

Actually we do not see many nightingales around Gresty Road  !!

Or ' a beaker full of  the warm  South with beaded bubbles winking at the brim"

Nice to see that someone has a team that can turn a game round. Up the Alex.

Our lot have a chance to redeem themselves mid week with a visit to St Andrews, not to play Brum but their squatters Coventry. Always assuming they can raise a team or persuade a few off the treatment table.

Woo Hoo! Tisdale's new look Gas are on a roll! 3 wins and 9 goals in a week, not to mention half a dozen in the Cup against the mighty Darlington! Unfortunately Cup success has meant a high profile league match against ... er ... Crewe has had to be put on hold .... come on Brian, put your money where your mouth is. ... I bet you 10p we'll turn you over when we do eventually get to play! wink

Stricken with the dreaded virus down at The Mem just now, Brian. Just keeping our powder dry before surging up the league next year. Got the mighty MK Dons to contend with on Boxing Day first though! smile

(Good to see The Alex doing so much better than the other 3 who came up last year! )
