    I still don't think they'll be able to maintain it. Though I also said the same thing 5 games ago:D

    Poor advert for the upper echelons of our division mate. Most noteworthy for the amount of swearing by someone in the vicinity of the comms. He even booed at the end.

    Hudds doing tonight, what we should have done weeks ago, away at Cambridge.
    Stockport go six clear of us in 5th, and Bolton go above us by a point.
    It puts a bit more pressure on us needing to win tomorrow!.

    Swings and roundabouts mate. We comfortably beat Crawley but Huddersfield had to come back twice there to manage a draw.

    Yeah I suppose that's right, but Duff and Hudds are on a long impressive unbeaten run now aren't they.
    We need to be keeping in touch with 6th at least though, to make the month of January 'more important'!.

    Of course we do, but it feels like we've been saying that for years now lol.
    The danger tomorrow, is despite our appalling home form, this is a game we definitely should be expecting to win.

    I can because they have more points than anyone else :D

    On a serious note in recent years they have got out of this division and would have sooner if the pandemic didn't spoil it for them. Maybe not top (ok definitely not top) but most of us surely expected them up there as a promotion rival.

    If they help stop the predictable Birmingham and Wrexham top two then brilliant.

    I was at the Cambridge v Huddersfield game tonight, and Huddersfield were very good. Cambridge's defence were poor - three crosses and 3 goals scored. It could have been 6-2 to Huddersfield.

    Will be at Oakwell v Leyton Orient. We really need 3 points to stay in touch with the top 6.

    took two late goals to beat them last season at home if memory serves me right.

    He was disappointing, and The Big Show replaced him at half time lol.

    Yeah your probably right about that game.
    Remember when they were just Orient in season '81, then they pinched the name Leyton from somebody. :rolleyes:

    Kane was very tidy in possession and his passing was generally very accurate, but his shooting was poor. He was switched to cdm with about 20 minutes to go. Overall solid, neat and tidy but nothing spectacular.

    Tbf, they have drawn 3 from their last 4 league games, so have slowed down a little bit.

    The division is pants this year, there’s only really Birmingham and possibly Huddersfield (once they get going) who have good squads. The rest are average at best.
    Investment needed in January, but we’ll only be able to strengthen if players move on. Which is a worry.
