Absolute class. The only mystery was how we only managed to score 7 that day. It could easily have been 15!
Ah for the days aggressive, urgent, attacking football - yes it does seem like 25 years ago... I like replaying that goal and laughing at the reaction of certain Huddersfield fans as it hits the net.
Never get tired of watching that. Took my wife to that game. , the one and only time she's been to oakwell .
Those were the days when we got excited ,and got up off our seats. Long gone are those days. Can't see this season getting any better. I was one of those who sad said patience is a virtue. Unfortunately I'm unable to defend this anymore after Saturday. My thoughts with the ones who travelled.
Some miserable shites on here. A once in a lifetime goal. And the only time since we've scored seven happened....checks calendar....3 months ago. A golden era watching us that comes around every two decades. Don't even try to compare to today or many other periods because its pointless.
Also worth saying that Ward/Hignett/Dyer would be a £30m+ strikeforce in the Champ today. So, yer know, context. That team would cost £50/£60m to assemble too.
You wonder how history might have been different if we'd had a season with those three, De Zeeuw, a fit Watson and the right manager. We might have gone up and stayed up.
Think he had a 3 or 4 match suspension from his red card at Sunderland the previous week, and left during that break. Season seemed to fall flat after that. Shame we'd already sold Fjortoft because I think he would've done a job after Ward left.
