Those who saying we will be fine. What are you basing that on? Genuine question. 7 points in our last 5 games. Hogg, Anjorin and eventually Pearson to come back. You would also hope that we will improve the more the manager gets his ideas across. He will get a good chance over the World Cup break to work with the squad. The squad is weaker than last season but should have enough qualify to stay up. |

I do not care what anyone says, but there is a huge improvement already compared to Schofield. We actually look like scoring. The players look fitter. Once we can get the defence sorted, we will be more than fine. People expect turnarounds over night. It is not going to happen unfortunately. |

So now he's hung Yuta out to dry will it be an all right footed back 3 with Ollie in or comedy time with Boyle playing and a competition between him and Lees for who's slowest, poorest and least likely to stay with their man 🤔.

I applaud the optimism and really hope he does turn it around. But, all season I have seen nothing to suggest we will stay up. Possibly the Cardiff game gave me a little bit of hope but that’s it. Hull were probably as bad as it gets, but other than Burnley (who were very good!) every team we’ve played have looked pretty poor - and we’ve only beaten 3 of them. I think MF needs to tone down his pressers with individual criticism, he will lose a lot of respect from the players. However, he was chosen for the job so he deserves the time to get this right - even if it means starting next season in L1 and him getting a full summer. He’s got a lot to learn to get that far though. |

I genuinely think over 90 mins we were better V Hull. Both were poor, as were Blackpool and Wigan. With MF I believe we would not have lost the Blackpool and Wigan games. If our home form continues like that last 2 then we will be fine. Away form will hopefully improve. People also need to remember not one player is a MF signing either. Maybe the long ball is because he knows our midfielder bar Hogg aren't really physical, so having the ball in them areas could be a weakness for us. |

I think if we could win tonight then it suggests we’re getting there with our home form - we’d have 13 points from 8 games and be sat mid table for home form. Then it becomes a challenge of setting the team up to grind out a better return away which feels like a different problem to being unable to win at all which is where we were til DS left. I’m not hugely confident in MF at this point but we’re less bad than we were. |

Also worth pointing out that our defence has been unsettled so far this season.
Helik only arrived late in the window and we played Mbete for a couple of games. It takes time for players to develop an understanding and gel as a defensive unit. A lot of goals conceded have been because we have been disjointed at the back. That should change.

Will need an early goal to get any atmosphere going tonight. But with it being Preston it will no doubt be a poor 0-0. Albeit, i'll still be going after having a few jars.

genuine question at what point will the happy clappers admit were in a relagation fight If we were miles adrift with half the season to go, rather than our current position - ie if we win tonight we're out of the relgation spots. When will all the doom mongers give things a chance to settle before bed wetting? |

Will people leave the guy alone. Seriously, some of your comments on here are more cringe than the 'cringe'he speaks. A few things town fans have moaned about for years. 1. Played 2 up top. 2. Play some of these youngsters. 3. Wish we had someone who didn't accept we are 'little' Huddersfield Town. 1. People moaning that 2 up top is the reason we are letting goals in. 2. People moaning about him playing youngsters over more senior players. 3. At least this guy is saying where he wants us to be and that is where we should be, play offs. Constant twisting of his words. The bit about Yuta was an observation and what he is wanting. It is nowhere near hanging him out to dry. People starting rumours over fall outs. Hogg and Pearson are injured. Nothing more. We didn't get Wagner, get over it. Said it before and I'll say it again: Pity you can't like a post multiple times!!!!! |

We concede because we drop too deep, too quick, too narrow and we stay there too long, its allowing too many balls into our box and too many opposition touches in our box. The law of averages and percentages in football is important. |

Just hoping for an improvement on the last time we played Preston which was possibly the worst performance from a town team I can remember for a long time and the game that led me to believe Scofield had to go.

Those who saying we will be fine. What are you basing that on? Genuine question. The Hope Dope ! Well, still a bit to go before I get the black tie out for a Town relegation... Hopefully not an omen though as I’m just about to leave for a service to say farewell to the gentleman that used to stay two doors up - tho he had a good innings thankfully... I think though all us HTAFC fans might well be ‘celebrating’ a big 21st party in May 2023 - as that’s the position where we’ll finish on the very last day and just avoid League 1 by the whisker of a public hair ! |

genuine question at what point will the happy clappers admit were in a relagation fight I don't consider myself a happy clapper , but we are definitely not automatically doomed at this point in the season .We have started badly, I don't believe many will argue that point. I think we have to give MF more time to try and reverse our poor form, If after 10/12 games with MF in charge, we are still struggling then I believe we will be in a serious relegation battle. The break for the World cup is a godsend for clubs like ourselves who are struggling , hopefully we will be better organised and have a full squad of fit players after the break, Sherburn. |

genuine question at what point will the happy clappers admit were in a relagation fight Give over. At this point in the season with a change in manager 4 games ago, what is the point in being miserable and downbeat? If we had 10 games left, then your point would be valid. |

"I've got my Japanese centre back, who's a fantastic boy and played well against Hull, not gunna go and head the ball. For me, Matty Pearson heads the ball clear" Whilst talking about mistakes that leave players out. This guy is a recipe for disaster. You can't just hang players out to dry at the rate he is, especially when he is more or less unknown. There’s surely no way he actually said that? I'm afraid I thought that as well... ...but when I checked he did. Whilst in context it's slightly better than it reads, I find it a very very strange comment. IMHO OK to state generally that those who don't train hard enough will not be in the squad but to name specific individuals (& not even by name but nationality (  ?)) isn't right (IMO). PS I hate those emojis |
