    The amount of money being invested in the ladies team is peanuts. Scrapping the ladies team would have approximately zero positive impact on the performance of the men's team.

    They won't invest whilst pumping 14 million in in just over 2 years made me laugh. Stop reading after that

    Because women are equal to and deserve the same opportunities as men, plus, the club serves the community and women are 50% of the community, would be my thinking. Women’s football was huge pre war and then was hobbled to prioritise the importance of the men’s game, this an attempt to right that historical wrong.

    Imagine the money involved is tiny and wouldn’t make a difference anyway given the level of investment needed.

    The irony of our lot singing “sacked in the morning” to Duff.

    tbf Huddersfield would have probably lost to nearly any other team today other than our soft touches!

    They would have been spanked by most teams today. If I was an udders fan I'd be happy with the result but still worried at the performance. They won't come up against many teams as bad as we were today, and it still took them 80+ minutes to get a winner.

    exactly this. very, very disappointed with Clarke. I like how he said he wants to play the game but see absolutely no evidence of it. How he wants to play is actually very simple but it involves all players being brainwashed into it, second nature - that's his job. He knew what he was coming into. I understand players can have bad games but if it becomes a regular thing then look for the reason behind it.

    You’ve taken it out of context.

    Yes they have invested in terms of buying equity and increasing their shareholding whilst clearing the shortfall from being relegated from the Championship.

    You don’t have to read as you say but this lot won’t get us up by INVESTING in the playing squad.

    That money will come from player sales.

    Who has value at the minute other than Phillips?

    Polishing diamonds as I said earlier.

    I’m gonna sit and wait a few months before the crap really does hit the fan with this current board.

    Downward spiral but you believe in them all you want old love.

    What suggests that would be any better, he is part of this shambles and sold the lie he would be a player coach.
