Do you know why horses wear blinkers Colt? It's because horses have a starting point and a finishing point in a race and some horses without blinkers start to get a little scared of the situation and become nervous, some even start jumping around kicking and screaming as things around them don't go their way. During a race they get sidetracked without blinkers and stray off a straight line forgetting what the game is about altogether. I don't think blinkers are a bad thing as they kind of keep me focused on where/why and when i started watching HTFC and the ups and downs and i don't tend to get dragged down by a few supporters who give in half way through the campaign. Maybe you should try some?

Exactly, they only keep them focused on what the jockey , trainer and owner want them to do. They restrict you from seeing the bigger picture and any dangers and problems on the horizon.

There is a backlash and then the backlash against the backlash. Everyone wants Powell to succeed but nothing is unconditional. If he dropped the first team and turned out 11 pot bellied pigs in a 1-1-8 formation he would be rightly pilloried by all . Apart from the attack minded swine lovers out there ... I'm not anti Powell .. Not at all.. But I'm concerned that as a club we have for two years been developing a certain style of play... Lillis came in and modified it slightly, with added zest and verve.... It now appears that we have ditched that completely . Is that what the directors signed up to ? .. I agree we need to stabilise defence.. But Hudson does that in one fell swoop... I'm not totally disheartened by last night as it is a base... But that doesn't mean I don't have concerns.. And if I can't air them on down at the mac whats the point in having down at the mac ? And if it upsets anyone in the hierarchy then they can go find another hobby

The sample size of both of these is difficult to extrapolate over a season. Would a Lillis team keep playing like that? Will Powell's?

We're all gonna die. Fact. Make the most of every moment. That's the most unblinkered view I can think of. Yes, you are right. From now on I'm going to relish each and every aimless long hoof we play! Seriously though, I want to be positive about us and the manager, I really do. But I cannot disregard what my eyes are telling me. It may be that in a few months time Powell has us playing better and we are much further up the table, but at the moment, considering the two performances I have seen under him, I can't see many green shoots of recovery. I very much hope he proves me completely wrong.

A first clean sheet in 20 games is something to be applauded, however it was achieved. And it is a basis to work from. Clean sheets always give you points, but it is goals that will get us up the league and away from relegation trouble. Hopefully we can now look to find more of a balance between attack/defence.

Deary me i didn't know it was us against them? So Dean and Chris Powell want me to see it differently? Are they conspiring to ruin the club or something then? And here's me thinking we all wanted what's best for Huddersfield Town .. I bet they put sublime messages on the scoreboard and in that new programme don't you? What should i do then Colt? Should i boo and hiss? Or do i follow your lead and just look for all the negatives and blow them out of all proportion? God this is big news to me, if only i'd have known...

Why did we get a new manager? Because the old one was not doing the job required. We have conceded 15 goals and scored 7, that is less than half those we have let in (for those with poor maths skills). So Powell has a bunch of things to sort out. He has decided, judging by the way we setup yesterday, to sort out the conceding bit as a priority. Another, and equally worrying issue, is we do not have a good strike force. Nothing against Wells but he has nobody to play off, and playing deeper, as he did last night, is not really his game. That will also need sorting. First though is to get confidence back into the team, and clean sheets will help do that. Powell is not going to put it all right in a couple of games, and Vaughan's stupidity has not helped his causes on the striker front, so, once again, we need to be patient. Two things I would like to mention. Firstly is the noise the North Stand crew made last night, even when we struggled they tried to keep the songs going, fighting against poor acoustics all the way. The Wigan fans, for all their teams possession, were very quiet. Secondly is how depressing I find the new of moaners who have popped up on DATM recently. It is almost as if there has been a shift change at We Are All Doomed Ltd. For goodness sake find something more productive to do with your time.

I think the word Hierarchy is the word you were looking for Colt.. I merely support people who i know are trying to achieve the best for Huddersfield Town. I know they are human and are likely to make mistakes so i refuse to jump on them when things don't go to plan. I ask everyone gives 100% to the cause and i know that some people can't always do that so when they are having a bad time of it as manager, player, owner or coach i'd rather try and support them and pick them up. This is support for Huddersfield Town and not the individual, getting the best for Huddersfield Town is trying to support from the bottom up, from the weakest link to the strongest one. If you actually believe that Dean Hoyle as pumped £20 million plus into HTFC and is somehow trying to hoodwink supporters then i give in..I wear blue and white blinkers because i support Huddersfield Town and everything i say or do will be from an Huddersfield Town perspective is that so difficult to comprehend?

Excuse me for not getting too excited or impressed by the clean sheet which was achieved by time wasting at home against a poor team. Sent from my GT-I9505 using proboards

My word was at least correct regardless of spelling. After 38 years of supporting dross, you tend to lose patience, nobody has supported the clubs causes anymore than my self in days gone by. But maybe i am old school and remember the game when it wasn't all about money. When there was an element of loyalty and wearing the shirt meant something. I am supportive of Dean Hoyle and what he is doing, but for me it is arse about face, get it right on the field first, then piece the rest of the jigsaw together after. I will refer back to my Ferrari with no engine analogy, which is what we are at the moment. Dean is just as open to criticism as the next person, the reason he maybe doesn't get criticised as much as he probably warrants is A) because in a lot of peoples eyes he can't do anything wrong and B) because fans are afraid of upsetting him in case our Purse strings are cut. There are a lot of things right at the club and a lot wrong in equal measures and i see both sides not just one.

leeds fell apart almost, they are still above us and favourites by some tune for Saturday. They had meltdown after meltdown fan wise with some fairly serious hate aimed at owners/managers/players over and over again.
one thing the staff there know is that they are 'measured' by Saturday not last Tuesday night and the meltdown and abuse will start up at ten to 5 if they lose to us.
odd thing is, they are still above us.
there is hardly a club ever that hasn't had supporters showing their displeasure, often deserved , often clearly undeserved but the grief and abuse etc was still there..
it comes with the brief im afraid, some crack on and work through it well, some whine about it and use it to excuse rubbish.
our season , short term future etc is dependant on which way our staff react to it.. lets see.

6 Italians and 1 Dane...Sold all their assets , training ground and such and bought in a dodgy owner. As the biggest club in Yorkshire with crowds averaging 23,000 they are the biggest failures in Yorkshire and their supporters know it. You seem to be suggesting that Dean should expect some stick because of your example? I just think Dean should expect some stick because some supporters use football as a vehicle to vent their frustration and social media as made it so much easier to deliver it.

no, I said its part and parcel of football, always has been and with social media its got worse.. like it or lump it but don't complain about it..
everybody is now scrutinised more and much more closely and opinions abound.. crack on and get on with it..
Dean should know he will get stick, even if we become wildly successful and as we are struggling he and the club will get a shitload. Right or wrong it happens and as I said sometimes well deserved other times not. Its life and how you react to it or ignore it etc, same for a great number of people in all sorts of professions, please stop singling footballers or football managers out, its just a job like all the others.
