Hoyle and Bromby have got what they want…a yes man grateful for the opportunity who won’t grumble at 50p to spend. I will back him in the stands though, as I hope other town fans do too. 50p ? He'll have a new £1m+ centre back to play and a lad off the best club side in the world bench we've just brought in for a large loan fee going by the £1m ESR cost to loan from Arsenal. As for yes man.. do you think we should employ a no man? Someone who refuses to work within our budgets? |

Heard this a lot about us trying to do things differently. Absolutely crap. How about been organised, with a clear style of play, fit and strong and with a good team spirit. With a manager who leads, gives the fans something to believe in and can motivate. Look at how many different clubs Fotheringham has had as a player and coach. Tells it's own story. All of the above will see us do very well. How do you know MF isn't organised.? How do you know he doesn't have a clear style? How do you know he won't lead and give us something? Had we heard wof Wagner? Had Norwich heard of Farke? Brentford with Frank? I am not saying it is all going to be rosy, but I don't understand how people 'know' he will fail. Get behind him, otherwise what is the point in supporting the team. [ they don’t just moan and you are correct they have no idea what he is like |

Siewert and schofield and now this fella! A great record to fill us all with confidence...lol It's the blind following the blind on here! Mark my words...in a few weeks time when we are as good as down and the media are saying..why didn't they pick someone with a bit of experience with this league instead of a complete novice...most on here will then follow suit There's no pre- season...we aren't in a healthy position...yet we hire a complete novice to stop the rot!! It's the end for bromby and Dean when this inevitability goes tits up in the next couple of weeks...I no longer have and confidence in this regime I'm a season ticket holder but will be staying away for the rest of this season now...I'm not prepared to blindly follow this regime [dear me! |

The World cup break comes after game 21 (20 for Town, Coventry away in Jan now), at the same point last season the four play off teams sat together in mid table on 29 points (Town & Sheff Utd) & 28 (Luton & Forest), although the target at the moment is to stay up, in theory its not yet impossible to reach top half/six.....top half finish @8/1 (top 6 @33/1), tempting odds.

That means if you were to put £10 on town finishing in the top half, you'd lose £10. Can't fault your optimism though |

I'd personally rather keep the Spanish guy then this bloke. At least he knows the club.
We're never going to attract a big name as we have little to no ambition, so it was always going to be a nobody or an up and coming but this Fotheringham guy just seems really underwhelming.

Can't fault your optimism though Better value than top half/six finish for WBA @1/6 (10/11) & Boro @1/3 (13/8), who bookies think will both storm up the table like last season?.......also, both Wilder & Bruce on verge of leaving. |

Hertha Berlín played seven won one sound like he will fit in well Another one blaming a teams form on a bloke who has absolutely nothing to do with them. Don't get me wrong I'm not over the moon with this appointment but can we stop suggesting he has anything to with Hertha Berlin's poor start to the season given he left them in the summer. |

A yes man from Dundee, this I have to see, been to Dundee many times & never met a yes man yet.......a few angry & confrontational ones, players & staff beware! |

Willing to give him a chance, but I'm not filled with confidence with this appointment.
Actions speak louder than words though, so let's hope for good results off the bat. Otherwise it's going to be turbulent Xmas for the club.

This has all the hallmarks of another promising coaching career destroyed by deano and bromby.
I hope I'm wrong, success and he will soon be somewhere else. Failure and he will never get a manager gig again.

2 years time we’ll be playing Wrexham in league 2… hoyle will be long gone… we’ll be looking back on the good old days wishing we had stuck with the cowleys 🤣 Sorry but I don’t even wanna wait and see how this mark lad does, LB get the fuck out of our club you clueless shithouse. This MF is so not our saving grace and his appointment just shows the lack of LB insight in to football and the fans. He’s fucked up for the last time. If this Mark lad doesn’t work LB will get carried out of Huddersfield.

The guy has to be given a fair chance, as we did with DS (sadly it was evident he wasn't up to the job).
As I said before though, rightly or wrongly, his window to impress/convince is very small. That isn't his fault, that is a result of a culmination of decisions/outcomes/situations that others are responsible for over a long period of time.
Immediate priority is to win football matches, immediate being the key word. If we win games his style, ethos and overall ability can be assessed in a more sensible context. Lose games and frustration will take over and it will be the end of the road for him and probably others as well. NB: By others I mean those in charge and those who watch, something will have to give.
We have no choice but to see what happens and hope for the best.

'Trust the process'. The same process that saw the club throw a fan favourite player under the bus and sack him after 9 games.
I don't trust anything they do right now.

I take the point but do we really think DS was head coach material? I don't think he was, or ever will be. However you do have to question why those in charge thought he was? It is those same people who are now charged with making the next appointment and have chosen, and it's not being negative to say this, someone also unproven in the lead role. I appreciate that there are a lot of people encouraging others to be more positive/have an open mind but some decisions do raise question marks. The balance to this is that CC was identified and unproven too, and that ultimately proved to be a good call. I really think we are at a point that will determine the future of the club in the longer term. This goes well and the structure PH introduced continues to be successful. Go wrong and there will, justifiably, be calls for significant change of the personnel making the decisions. How will it go? I genuinely don't know. But you have to hope for the best. |

Needs to fit their narrative to moan mate. I’m also not thrilled with the appointment and unfortunately think it may be the end of us in the champ but some folk would find any excuse to beat the club. Guardiola?! Don’t have the resources to support his style. Mourinho? Been past it for years. |
