Chads I doubt any Stoke or town fan saw this scenario coming Without being offensive after we got that draw at your place I rather fancied we might go on to do what you have and that you would drop away 🤔 It’s a funny old game You got an alter ego on last nights game’s BBC HYS Chadders? 😉

I think there’s a lot of admiration and even more jealousy among Stoke fans at the way Huddersfield and indeed Luton have performed over the past two months We looked liked we had a got ourselves into a good position to mount a serious challenge only to throw it away with an awful run and then pick it up again when it was to late (I think we’re third on current form over last six games) Oh well we’ll just sit back and watch Huddersfield and Luton strut around Wembley and hope for better next year

Do you think you will you have a new manager next season Chadders?

Do you think you will you have a new manager next season Chadders? Difficult one. We seem to be putting together a strong finish which will help is cause. If we could get Suan Dyche or maybe Farke I’d be happy to see him go. Far too inconsistent for two years now.

You don't have to buy every away game but it basically puts you at the top of the priority system. Forest away was their equivalent of our game tonight. Some people bought the away season ticket to guarantee themselves a ticket for the Forest game and never went to another away game - fewer than 100 tickets went to season ticket holders and many who travelled away all season couldn't get tickets.

No other benefits other than getting first dibs on tickets (although BWF benefits have eroded over time) and probably cheaper, but similar outcome when ticket numbers for big games are very restricted.

It seems exactly the same to me. There are no other benefits of being a B&W member other than the knowledge that you are helping the clubs academy and giving money to charity. That's hardly a benefit to the member. The chance of winning some money is only a benefit if you actually win some money.

That's hardly a benefit to the member. The chance of winning some money is only a benefit if you actually win some money. It's more like the Terriers on Tour membership we brought out in 2016 which was purely for priority for away games. BWF gives you a 10% discount in the shop on a Tuesday and £5 off your season ticket (which used to be 5%). There is also the chance of winning in the weekly draws as well as the Player of the Month draws (and there used to be "money can't buy" prize draws as well) - maybe only a benefit if you ever win anything but it is an additional part to the scheme. As I said, the benefits have been eroded over time, but there are still minor differences to a scheme that is purely for away tickets.

I was in it for a few seasons, but decided against it, when certain things happened at the club at boardroom level, joined because it benefited the community, ain't a clue what it benefits now, even won a couple of tenners in the draw. Each to their own if they want to sign up to it, for whatever reasons.

Well that’s that then Unfortunately I missed the game but that penalty shout I saw on the news looked a good one The powers that be will be happy I’m afraid you’re classed with us and you get the feeling you’re not welcome at the top table
So we go again next year
Look forward to a 22/23 thread
Put the disappointment behind and have a good summer all
