The key to changing players is that they should always be better than the one you replace. Malone was a disaster for example. You don’t think Malone was better than Jason Davidson?

That statement just puts an end to any shred of credibility regarding football knowledge you had left after your bleatings on here lately. Is there anything you don't believe you can do better than anyone else. After all you have claimed you can manage better than Wagner. Recruit better than our recruitment team. Run the club and invest wiser than Dean Hoyle. If having an inflated ego was an an Olympic 'sitting down' sport you would win another Gold for GB.

Struggling team need a Duncan Shearer type CF to come in and reignite the fire! Cost peanuts... Joey Jones recommended him. Long time ago but what an impact that lad had! Remember one game v WBA stood in East Stand, ball came to him and 'Thump!' that's the sound of ball heading at 100 mph in to the West Brom net! Great post, great Player. And what a debut he had!

Whereas when you go to the pub Oti there isn't one occasion when they're not throwing themselves at your feet My playboy days are over. I look 100 at the moment. Been in bed 3 days with Aussie flu...i am not surprised people die. I cant walk, eat, think. Steady on now.

Aye, it wasn't just after the Swansea game where people were beginning to lose belief last season. Right from the start of this year, we suffered 5 defeats on the trot, consisting of some right thumpings in some cases: 0-3 v Leicester, 1-4 at home v West Ham, and a 0-2 against Stoke, then the big boys came along and had no mercy, 0-3 v Liverpool and a 0-2 against ManUtd. I generally tend to be optimistic, but I remember it well and was beginning to see grey skies developing over the JSS - in fact, I likened it to how Napolean's army must have felt 200-odd years ago when they realised they had to go back home (or in our case, back to the Championship) like a wounded animal after initially having reached their zenith by taking Moscow (or reaching the Premier League as in our case). Wet and cold in the depths of winter, thumped, bloodied, and starved of success - How we got out of that quagmire, I'll never know.

You will never know...nor will I. Life is rarely a meritocracy. Look at Robins, Powell, Clark. Could i do a better job than them? Could Oti win the Prem with a £700 mill budget? These are subjective things. With huge intellect, vast memory, drive and personality you can turn your hands to most things. Its not like racing Usain Bolt. I said several times on here that Wagner would not have serial success. Football managers are the most over-rated people on the planet.

Overstretched lines of supply combined with the Russian winter.. Their armies were superior on the battlefield but wars are more complicated than that fact alone.. It's a bit like town now.. The other teams are technically better equipped and we will lose many battles.. But we will win the war and survive once more..

Allegedly gone wrong? We've scored one chuffing home goal since February, that's what's gone wrong. Over reaction? I'd say there was no over reaction and that the situation is critical mate.

It is not really critical. Bolton were critical last month. Darlington club dissolved in 2012, Chester City 2010, Coventry played at Northampton for some time, that was critical. I think some perspective may be in order. If critical means we get relegated from the top flight then what was the term when Davy was wearing the pants?

I'm talking critical on the pitch, yeah everything is fine off it but let's be honest, that's not the meat and drink of supporting a club, it's the on field that fans are interested in, not balance sheets or training facilities. Flatlining is the term to be used for Davy's tenure.

We've played four games at home, two against Chelsea and Tottenham where it was always unlikely we would score, one against Cardiff with 10 men where it was unlikely we would score once that happened. Only the Palace game really we can realistically judge us not scoring in at home.
Liverpool next - I don't expect us to score in that one either.
I'll start panicking if we don't score in the next five home games against Fulham, West Ham, Brighton, Newcastle and Southampton.

If we're not scoring by then we're doomed.

I felt inclined to bump this thread from 3 months back. I might also bump the one where pre-season i claimed Mounie and De Poitre would not get another 30 goals combined...in their entire careers. It went wrong firstly when we did not sign a striker.

It went wrong firstly when we did not sign a striker. Obviously we need a striker, plain to see for a couple of seasons. Equally obviously one has to wonder who and “how much.” Rocking horse droppings spring to mind when you consider which established front man would commit themselves to (at very best) a lower end premier club??? More importantly; I’m delighted to see you posting again - without doubt the liveliest poster on this mb. Keep them coming. Btw; where have you been. Not a repeat of your past health travails I hope?

The culture and mindset has been all wrong for a year or so now. We went from having ‘Terrier Spirit’ and ‘no limits’ to being told we are ‘little Huddersfield’, know who we are and where we’re from and that we must be humble.
We came up with balls like baked potatoes and now shuffle at the bottom of the league like we’re embarrassed to be here.
We got here on merit. We should look every other team in the eye and say ‘we deserve to be here, we belong here and we’re gonna stand toe to toe against the best in the world to stay here’.
Are Burnley & Brighton so meek? Do Bournemouth constrain themselves through their history at every press conference?
Tell a bunch of players and fans that they should concentrate on their roots rather than their dreams every week and they’ll start to believe you. Don’t then be surprised when the atmosphere darkens and confidence evaporates. It’s a crazy approach.

While we are signing Jason puncheon they have signed england international's Football's a simple game where it went wrong is when we have gone down to 10 men In games from winnable positions against relegation rivals coupled with injuries to mooy and Williams

Jeez it's already bad enough being a Town fan right now without Nostra-fucking-damus telling us 'I told you so' in his gloomy portent of doom predictions. Even a stopped clock is right twice a day.

Harry Kane wouldn’t get double figures playing for us. Personally don’t think that chunking money on goal scorers is the answer. Balls. I can think of at least 7 depoitre misses that should have been put away and someone like Kane would have been on 7 already, not to mention any harder ones.

Spurs at home last season. After that, the manager changed the way we played. The results have been horrid ever since.
