The journalists were asked for their worst game of the season...
One said Town v Man united (mainly because of the way United downed tools and didn't try). Darren Lewis said... Any game that he covered that involved Huddersfield. He said he has yet to see a new manager have less of an impact than Siewert.

He said he has yet to see a new manager have less of an impact than Siewert. he is either not looking hard enough or at all, I suspect its the latter.. poor journalists just giving easy answers...what about the many, many managers in situ making little or no impact? if its not arse licking teams that spend the same per year as small countries then its just not worth 'thinking' much about... same as the refs, if you dont get to 'do' the big game its reflected immediately in your opinions on the lesser game you have been given.. one championship play off match having the drama of a dozen 'top' games... if you get excited by centre halves who are 'comfortable on the ball' and midfielders who can play a pass now and again then fair enough.. United just thought they could get away with doing 'just enough', they are not alone in the premier league.. top 2 teams are miles above because this mantra pervades the clubs just below them..

I think I speak for most Town fans when I say that I don't give a flying fuck what Lewis thinks. He probably didn't even know where Huddersfield is before we got to the Premier League.

Lewis is a complete wanker but I don't see much wrong with what he said about Siewart. Unless you count winding up all the players as having an impact;-)

In all fairness we have been dire to watch this season. I think maybe 6 or 7 games have been ok games for a neutral, the rest have been very poor games.

Lewis clearly didn’t see either of our live games against Wolves.

Prey to god by hard work, and this manager builds a team this term, that gets us promoted, then I would take great pleasure at putting 2 fingers up at all these negative critics, they are like leaches who are hell bent on thinking they know what the future holds.

The specific point is something I wouldn't strongly argue against, but:
1) it's still lazy and flippant - I bet there were at least some equally or more dull games involving the organised and cautious Brighton and Newcastle (before they were safe), and Cardiff. 2) away from Winter, most of these journalists are not much better than our very own shit bloggers. They constantly advocate 'spend, spend, spend' and then wonder why some teams play on the back foot, some players are detached from the fans, etc. These guys should offer insight, but there are more rounded arguments on here (ffs 🤣).

You forgot to mention Burnley- they and Brighton managed fewer shots than us this season.

Personally I hope Darren Lewis was pained having to watch us cos the blokes a complete prick. I suffered and he’s a lot more worthy than me.

I suspect you may be under 15. The seasons when we dropped down through the divisions in the 70s were far worse.

Terrible season worst ever by a long long long way .. I started following ztown from 1975 We were dropping like a stone, I enjoyed it much more then though, At least we scored goals and it was lovely at old Leeds road. Then one of best ever times for me with Buxtons side. This season has been much worse, torture with players who dont deserve paying.

Terrible season worst ever by a long long long way .. I wish. Did you know before anyone had heard of McDonalds you could go to Wimpey and get a hamburger, served on a plate with a knife and fork or that when there was only 3 tv channels to choose from they used to shut down for a couple of hours in the afternoon and remind you to unplug your set at night before playing the National Anthem ? When you've seen Town lose a league game at the likes of Workington, Hartlepool and Halifax and been impressed because the crowd was up at 4,000 your views as to worst season ever may count for something, last season was hard going, by anyone's standards but your stance is a bit like a fat bloke complaining to a starving Ethiopian because his local KFC are out of hot wings. Addition Can Nick explain how or why he likes the worst season ever post and the one straight after dismissing it ?

Weve had some lousy performances this season and Lewis might have been unlucky and just seen 2 or 3 of those. But were not alone in that. My guess is hes seen the final table and decided to take a cheap shot at the side at the bottom. His knowledge outside the big clubs will be minimal. I doubt he knows that much about us or cares that he doesn't.
The last time I heard him on Talksport he was droning on about how journalists should never describe any black player as being lazy ( even if they are ) because it just promotes the impression all black players are lazy. The guys a prick.

This season has been much worse, torture with players who dont deserve paying. definitely our worst even Premier League season.. many, many others were as bad but failed to pull in full houses and millions and millions of pounds in revenue? perspective is all.. the points gained and goals scored totals in the overall scheme of the current top division are probably no worse than some other poor seasons.. long time, if ever, have we had a manager and staff who continually stated we had no chance of competing though?? worst season ever for any belief from the playing staff, I think... still, we can forget up to XMas now and just blame Siewart and anyone in management left at the club, other than Dean of course?

It’s so easy to pick the team that came bottom but I’d say it’s probably a fair statement, we were frustrating to watch last season.
