Hi Guys, Huddersfield fan here, followed then for nigh on fifty years now, like some of you, no doubt, through thick and thin, but to be fair, our thin is a lot thinner than yours! Just a couple of points though! Our money has nothing to do with any deal for Rhodes, (thanks for him by the way!), our Chairman recently sold his business for a reputed 9 figure sum, so he's not short of a bob or two, and he's also a lifelong fan, as a kid he used to stand in the ‘Cow Shed', our home ‘end', so he's prepared to spend some of it. I never expected Rhodes to leave in the window, at the end of this season he'll still have three years on his contract, that will take him to 24, so if we go up this season I think he'll stay for another one, unless one of the real big clubs come in for him. As for the other points raised, I doubt if any Town fans held Marcus Stewart coming to Ipswich against you, all our hostility at that time was aimed at our Board, Manager and Chairman then, Bruce is still very unpopular up here, as is Barry Rubbery!. WickedBlue has a good point, we being farther North probably helped wit Wallace, (and Rhodes playing for Scotland wouldn't hurt!) And you weren't interested in Higginbotham anyway, so no harm done! Sorry you've got Jewel, he's ex Bradford, so not popular with us either, but to be fair, (as much as that hurts me), he did a decent job at both Bradford and Wigan. Well, enough rambling from me, Good Luck for the rest of the season. Goodnight all. Oh, nice result tonight by the way! |  |
