They fill the criteria I set out for players being young, hungry and good footballers. They can play at the level above this and beyond and there is a lot of room to develop them as players. They are outstanding young footballers at this moment in time but they are hungry to do better. They can come on the journey with us at Huddersfield Town and compete at a higher level.
"Once we had an agreement from their Clubs it was quite easy. The players were very enthusiastic. We told them what we want to achieve long term and they bought into it.
"We beat of competition for both players from teams in the League above. I think people are hearing about the plans we have got here and what we want to do in the future and they must have been impressed by what they heard because we struck deals with both boys within an hour or two and in today's transfer market that's quite unique.
"When we left the Club last night everyone was happy because we know we have completed some terrific business," said Clark, a comment which was echoed by Chairman-Elect Dean Hoyle.
"When quality players become available you have to act quickly because when you need them, they are never available," said Hoyle. "Simply, we had an opportunity to sign two fantastic young players and we are delighted to have done so.
"We are building a quality squad for the future and these two players fit the criteria perfectly."

Good comments and promising signings at the right age. Not read much from Watford or Hereford fans about Ainsworth but the Pilkington comments from Stockport lads are decent. He's only scored 6 this season though, although he leads Stockports shots at goal stats with 64.

This is why you endure the dark days of watching town for days like today when it feels so proud to support the great huddersfield town. Onwards and upwards!

Last season I never thought I'd be reading those type of statements coming from the club. We are going to be the new Boro  |

He's only scored 6 this season though, although he leads Stockports shots at goal stats with 64. If you look on the Hereford messageboard, the Hereford fans are absolutely gutted. Just to warn the easily offended, most of the messages contain numerous expletive deletives. |

Can't wait to let my boss know that it won't be long before we're above them.
