Though not 'regular' season league games, play off games are obviously league games as they are part of the league season, effect league standings and are named after the league division theyre for!  Lee Clarks long 'unbeaten' run had a defeat in the middle of it! Useless football league, they always fail to update the final league tables after the playoffs have taken place  |

Lee Clarks long 'unbeaten' run had a defeat in the middle of it! Nonsense. Moaner and Slapps had this discussion a few years back. For all his faults, moaner had him on toast. He schooled him from nursery to Uni and back again and guess what? Slapps still didn’t back down! 🤣 |

Akpo Sodje was a really good footballer and we released him too soon.

Selling Stewart was a master stroke and brought out the best in offside Clyde The true master stroke was the timing🙄 |

Lee Clarks long 'unbeaten' run had a defeat in the middle of it! What sort of league would have 20 teams playing 46 league games, 2 teams playing 48 league games & 2 teams playing 49 league games? A sensible league would have everyone playing the same number of games & some might have rules at the end of the season that if you end up in certain positions, you qualify for a mini cup competition that will have the winner being promoted. |

Moaner and Slapps had this discussion a few years back. For all his faults, moaner had him on toast. He schooled him from nursery to Uni and back again and guess what? Slapps still didn’t back down! 🤣 Schooled me? Was he the one that tried to say they were just cup games?? LOL Im still waiting for someone to explain how a game that is part of the league season, has the name of the league division in its title, and effects clubs' league position isnt a league game. Why people struggle to understand that the regular league season IS NOT the entire league season and that the league season carries on with the play offs remains beyond me. |

Why people struggle to understand that the regular league season IS NOT the entire league season and that the league season carries on with the play offs remains beyond me. The clue is in the word League. What is a league? Well it's where everyone plays each other home and away, and a League table shows Where everyone is. When everyone has played each other twice the League table shows the final standings. The league fixtures then end, . The play offs are not league games, obviously, because the league has finished. It's actually quite straight forward |

Why people struggle to understand that the regular league season IS NOT the entire league season and that the league season carries on with the play offs remains beyond me. Two questions I'd like you to answer - 1. Are points awarded for winning or drawing league games which go towards affecting a clubs standing in a league table?? 2. What happens in a league game if both sides are drawing at the final whistle? |

For me it needs to be "can't keep standing up and sitting down coz my knees are fucked but still love the town nevertheless" |

Wouldn’t surprise me if we ended in a lower position but can’t recall. |

The unbeaten run is like Trigger’s broom: we were only unbeaten in all the games we didn’t lose. The ‘record’ should have an asterisk next to it. |

Why people struggle to understand that the regular league season IS NOT the entire league season and that the league season carries on with the play offs remains beyond me. It's quite simple really Slapps. You may not agree with it, you may think it's illogical, other may agree, BUT the people who devised the play off system and make the rules decided they weren't going to count as league games. |

If it weren’t for Phil Hodgkinson we wouldn’t have kept Corberan and wouldn’t have got close to the play off final last season.

Dean Gorre was over rated - one good game in 5 and people excited because he'd played for Ajax Agreed. On his day he was brilliant. His vision was incredible - spotting passes from the ground that I couldn't see high up in the Kilner Bank. To this day possibly the single best individual performance I've seen by any HTAFC player was his vs Man City when he just utterly ran the show. BUT, rose tinted specs forget that when he wasn't brilliant, he was often anonymous. |

The thing was no Town player scored a goal?  ? No Town player scored a goal in open play at all. We also didnt have a positive goal difference, all good pub questions for the future.? He's a Town player now, if that helps. I love that he'd already scored for us twice before he joined. |

Corberan is tactically the best coach we will likely ever see manage Town in our lifetimes.

Most Leeds fans genuinely don't care about our rivalry. I agree. I find our obsession with Leeds embarrassing (especially that cringey pinned thread on chestwankers tears). Wish we’d focus on our own team and let everyone crack on; it looks so tinpot You say that like it's a bad thing! |

The chant "Uh to be a" - makes no sense When did the second part; "Uh to be a Terrier" get dropped Totally agree..its sounds fucking ridiculous just singing ooh to be a I don't join in on this one because it's embarrassing...visiting fans must think what the fuck are they singing that for They must think we are a band of kajagoogoo fans as they have a crappy song called ooh te be a |
