Published 22 mins or so ago. So Blakes had a right fucking bollocking and been told he needs to get the Town fans back onside after the Crainey tweet. A much needed apology perhaps? No, a poll to see if Leeds fans are the most deluded. Something every fan of Town, and football in fact, obviously already know. Fuck off, Blake.

We have out grown them, we’re a long way ahead of them now. Just from an impartial outsider's point of view, I would be careful with statements like that, as invariably they come back and bite you on the arse. Huddersfield, right now, are a club on the up, and have the Premier League riches at their disposal to help them grow, and improve across the board. Those riches, right now, are far in excess of what has been on offer previously to clubs at this level, and with prudent investment and good planning should set clubs up for the future. However, it only takes a one-off good season in the Championship to see a side from last season's mid table be this season's promotion contenders - last season, Wolves finished 15th, Cardiff 12th and Villa 13th - all well off the pace, but two have already gone up and one is in the play off final. Additionally, it only takes one bad season for a mid-table Premier League club to become relegation candidates - WBA were 10th last season, Stoke finished 13th (after a few top half finishes) and Southampton 8th, but two of those went down and the other scraped through this season. Yes, Leeds fans have bizarre delusions of grandeur, based on nothing more than success before a lot of the current fan base were even born, and think that because of their size they "deserve" to be in the Premier League - and looking at it without a local rivalry view, I actually find it quite amusing - and their fans are incredibly easy to wind up (much like any rugby league fan if you claim Union is better - FWIW I'm not really a fan of either). But, just remember how football can come around and bite you - it's happened to us all at some point in time, before thinking that you will now and forever more be the bigger club! We had a lot of that mentality on our forums before the season, lauding it up over Brighton, and yet for most of the season we were far more likely to go down than they were, which was not a pleasant position to be in. For now, enjoy it, but don't get too carried away, as football's a funny old game. I'd advise the same to any fan in the sort of position you find yourselves in over your rivals, as unlikely as it seems, the boot can end up on the other foot fairly quickly. As an outsider, I'd add that I'd much rather play Huddersfield than Leeds, partly because Elland Road is so far out of town it's a pain and cuts down on my drinking time pre / post match - loved the away day in Huddersfield this season! Are you comparing teams with parachute payments and big investors to us? Aston Villa and wolves haven’t just fluked this season they’ve just pumped more money into it!

Told you so My personal view is that a good game of union is a lot better than a good game of league, but a bad game of union is far worse than a bad game of league - and bad games in union tend to outnumber the good ones. I'm not really a fan of either in truth, but can see why they both appeal to people. What surprises me most is the lack of people who do appreciate both, and the seemingly regional nature to both. You're incredibly wrong, but we're straying off topic so I'll save it for another thread. That and I sense that no one else on here gives a shite about either code Yes he is, anything is better than a good game of rugby league 😛🎣😉

I WILL FIGHT YOU IN THE STREET FOR COMMENTS LIKE THAT! It's true though It is I'm afraid.
A myth like southern beer. Until recently they had much better beer while we were still drinking chemical piss. The north has caught up and in some ways gained the upper hand.

Blake Welton...what an utter tosser. He chooses to associate our club with an appalling piece of negative and cynical journalism, he's pitiful.
Whoever sanctioned this editorially also needs to look at themselves.
Why not focus on the positives at our club ?
He should be sacked.

If you are an outsider as you claim why are you on this forum? I went to university in Huddersfield and have lived up here for nearly 16 years now, currently less than 5 miles from the ground. Selfishly I was really wanting you to stay up, as it's a local game I can get to, and I always like a good day out (drinking) round Huddersfield. Hadn't realised Vaesen came to England first with you guys - he was a key part of our promotion in 2004.

The article however cheesy, was motivated by an article in a newspaper who's title claims to represent everyone in Yorkshire, yet demeaning all Clubs in Yorkshire bar one, and mocking in particular the achievements of our Club over recent years.

I don't see what it's got to do with town fans? Leeds fans are a bunch of neanderthals judging by the comments, they should be bashing the c*** that wrote the article imo.
