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.

Glasgow Celtic are as usual, miles above all the other Scottish teams in the competition for the silverware .

They are a rich club and can buy top quality players. 

Friends of mine, avid Celtic fans, are even commenting on how boring it is to continually be the winner against all those other teams in the Scottish league.

One huge fish in a small pool of minnows does not make for interesting competition.

 Steven Gerrard is going along quite nicely. If Rangers splash out on the players he wants then I think he might do well.

I'm getting a bit twitchy now. Six hours to kick off and I think this is a " must win" match tonight.

This match could define our season. Mind you I've spoken to a few supporters who wouldn't see a return to the Championship as the end of the world.

Come on you Terriers

Good luck for tonight's match, Rog, as you say, it's a must win one, but definitely winnable.

Manchester derby next Sunday, and I'm getting twitchy already.....

A bit off topic, but what do CT footy fans think about Wayne Rooney playing in the upcoming England friendly game....🤔

Might as well recall Bobby Charlton and his team mates too!

England love to keep playing their 'star names' for far too long imho. Move on Southgate and give some talent from the U19's a chance instead

Sorry I didn't post earlier. I was home too late after the match on Monday and yesterday I had to drive down to rescue my eldest from A&E in Leicester take her home to Lincolnshire and look after her last night. I've just got back from retrieving her car from Leicester, and driving home, having spent most of the day at the fracture clinic at QMC in Nottingham.

But yes a hard fought 3 points and I thought they'd finally scored a home goal only for the dubious goals panel to give it as an own goal.

One of these days Town will win by more than a single goal and I'll have some fingernails left!

ps. My view on the Rooney situation is this; by all means let him walk out at half time and receive some kind of tribute but he shouldn't be in the squad.

With  respect  to  your  final  point,  Pliers  :--

Before  the  World  Cup  &  similar  competitions  came  along  we  only  had  "The  Home  Championships"  and  Friendlies.  Now  there  are  almost  League -  like  tournaments  with  the  so called  warm  up  matches  before  them. The  Friendly  against  the  U.S.A.  is,  I  believe,  intended  to  boost  the  attraction  of  football ( Soccer  as  the  Yanks  call  it  smile )  and  bolster  the  Charity  sponsored  by  Wayne  Rooney  which  bears  his  name.  If  it  succeeds  in  doing  those  things  I'd  not  have  any  qualms  about  selecting  the  man,  he's  too  proud  to  want  to  look  a  pillock  on  the  pitch  I  think.

Well we actually scored a goal at home and by one of our own players.unfortunately we couldn't get the win over the line but a draw will have to do. In the corresponding match last season we lost 4-1 so that's a vast improvement
