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.

You're not alone Brian I can't keep up with these new countries either, all I know is it's somewhere in the Balkans I think.

16:50  and  Crewe  are  shewing  their  charitable  nature  now

1 : 0  up  and  slithered  smoothly  to  1 : 3  Down 

They  really  should  have  checked  that  tomorrow  is  MOTHERING  SUNDAY --  so  it's  MOTHERS  who  should  receive  the  gifts  &  choccies  not  bloomin'  Cheltenham surprised

Papgeno,

  Roger,    sorry  to  see  that  Huddersfield  have  already  been  relegated. Please  enjoy  the  games  remaining,  with  the  pressure  off  now  they  might  relax  &  start  playing  entertaining  footy  again.

Thanks Brian - "squeaky bum" time for Rovers. We still have the bottom 3 to play out of our last 6 games, but given the way we've snatched defeat from .....er, well......defeat so often this season, anything could happen yet! frown

Well that's us relegated and with 6 games to go, how embarrassing 😡

But here's a story to warm your cockles. Last summer a six year old girl in the USA was undergoing chemotherapy for a brain tumour and feeling poorly, was watching the World Cup on TV with her dad. She was really upset that she had lost her hair but perked up when she saw a player in the Australian team who also had no hair. Her parents did some digging and discovered that the player was Aaron Mooy who was playing for Huddersfield Town in the Premier League.

They bought her the full kit ( they call it the uniform) and bought the FIFA  video game so she could watch her inspiration some more.

To cut a long story short when they heard about it, the club and Aaron decided they would like to do something special for her so they arranged for Bella ( that's her name) and her dad to fly over from Texas for the Leicester match next week and be  VIP guests of the club.

Wonderful  to  hear  Roger. 

It's  great  that  footy  clubs,  and  individual  players  too,  are  getting  much  more  involved  in  such  things.  Rather  like  Craig  Bellamy  whose  reputation  is  not  without  some  stains,  BUT  he  has  helped  raise  millions  of  pounds  for  charity  &  even  started  a  football  academy  in  Sierra  Leone.   Some  grumpy  old  men  on  here  can  get  quite  emotional  at  times  smile
