Fantastic idea by the club and new owners.
Just me being absolutely picky, but they should have had a set day and time each week where the new episode is released.
Sporadic days/times looks shoddy.

Their legs were going like the clappers, but not getting anywhere fast. A great dip into some childhood memories. |

Great thread. I used to love Mr Benn. Sitting down to watch that whilst Mum made some Steak Canadians for us is a long lasting memory.
None of this CGI rubbish the kids have nowadays…

Think I can die happy now I've seen a Mr Benn tribute thread get stickied on DATM. And yet a thread about Emily Atack's ancestry which features footage of Town playing at Leeds Road gets binned to Off Topic! 🤷♂️ World's gone bonkers!  |

Binned to 'Off Topic' or promoted to 'Off Topic'?  |

As well made and interesting that 20 min video is, does anyone wonder how this is all playing out? If the timeline is genuine and none of that was staged retrospectively, you could argue that this is probably a great marketing video aimed at the US as opposed to England.
Is this an attempt to get some traction on the coat tails of Wrexham (in a social media context).
Don’t take this post as negative, but once these things start, and if the intention is to continue them beyond the sale of the club, I think there’s a risk in doing that.
Or maybe I’m just an old fart that likes to see these things as a point in time, not some soap opera of HTFC. 😉

Nagle seems like a good guy based on his work in Sacramento but still for the life of me can’t understand why he’d knowingly sign up to consistently losing tens of millions of pounds over a period of many years. I don’t understand life or football anymore! |

For us, it's a chance to "Meet the Nagles", and across the pond it's introducing people to "HuddersTown".

Getting back to Mr Benn ... it was the first time I have seen the Red Knight episode. Kept missing that back in the day. Great! I cannot help thinking though that the matchmaker is something of a message about Tory politians inventing stories about people so they can demonise them ...

When you tee up something being a series then you're risking looking stupid when everything doesn't go to plan. I sense they'll film everything behind the scenes for the rest of the season and launch stuff if things go well. It should be parked until next May now, in my opinion! |

Seriously, can't do right for doing wrong. I'd thought to suit some folk, annually, quarterly, monthly, weekly, daily, might fulfil expectations, but a one off - didn't anticipate that. |

I mean if you read my post again you'll see I've essentially suggested annually, so I guess we're in agreement. |
