Great notes htafcokay. However, if Warnock and Jeppo are contacting former players to comment on a current manager, as much as I love them, that’s overstepping the mark. Even if they didn’t like the methods they should respect the fact there is someone in a role working. I doubt they would have appreciated ex-managers at clubs contacting players they were working at. From what they said, it was players that were contacting Warnock and Jepson about the manager, not the other way around. Fair enough, I stand corrected. 👍🏼 I agree with a few others on this topics, as in Warnock was superb for us twice but we need to move on now and try rebuild after the storm.

But Warnock hasn't put his side of the story across until yesterday, so naturally there's been speculation up until now. Now he has responded hopefully it will be put to bed.

I wonder who filled AB in on the poor pre season etc etc.. Someone was clearly giving him the info and wanting it to point at Warnock, not Moore or possibly themselves ? That was going to be my point. AB didn't call out Warnock at all, or not directly at least. He had already made comments about the overall fitness of the players and yes I know every incoming manager does that, but we all know they weren't fit enough. AB then said that he'd been told by the/some/a player(s) (I can't remember his exact wording), that pre-season had involved a lot of golf and going to the pub. PS: There was never any point practicing set pieces at the end of the season anyway. From about October Sorba over or under hit almost every one of them anyway!

Or they are inexperienced players short of confidence for 2 years apart from 3 months where Warnock took them under his wing. You are assuming they're just ringing him up to complain about the manager. If they speak to him and he boosts their confidence, gives them some advice and gets them smiling, how is that a bad thing? Rudoni is 22 years old in his 2nd championship season FFS. There is not a chance in hell Warnock would have treated him like Andre did, and that's why Rudoni will look to Warnock for advice and guidance. Andre's treatment of him was disgraceful. If the last sentence relates to the early substitution at Ipswich, then I think you're wrong. Rudoni deserved that, his 'performance' that day was a disgrace. A 22 year old being publically embarrassed in front of millions. He's still starting out in football. That was well out of order and will take a lot of getting over.

Jack Rudonis performance at Ipswich was a disgrace, AB did what should have been done. Please stop making excuses for these underperforming fannys. Also, the poster who did the write up said “He then added, “the lads kept ringing us. They said towards the end of the season, they didn’t do any set-pieces in training and then he comes out with all this about pubs and golf. The guy hasn’t a clue. It’s a good job he’s gone as he’d be getting them relegated even further, because he’d lost the dressing room” So the players told him they didn’t do set pieces and AB had lost the dressing room - that isn’t advice, that’s called being a bitch. And once again, you're assuming that's all that was talked about. If someone at work comes up to me and says they're down, under pressure, confused etc the first thing I do is ask them to explain what's going on. Then I'll see what I can do to help after letting them unload. Unlike Warnock I wouldn't have made that public. Rudoni is 22 years old. He didn't play well in a nothing game. Take him off at half time, don't embarrass a young lad in front of millions.

I think Neil Warnock is self serving and I 100% believe that whatever he said does not tell the whole story. He has openly discussed things there that didn't need to be discussed, and against a club he claims to have great affection for. We have just been relegated and the supporters and club need to be united, what he has said is only going to create resentment. He's gone and needs to be forgotten. do you not agree that after being publicly slaughtered by Brieten he was always going to publicly defend himself you may choose to forget the promotion the Wembley auto glass final and the championship survival last year many of us will choose to remember those achievements I'm not saying forget the great things he has done for the club, I'm saying forget the fact he has now left and we need to move on. Maybe it wasn't made clear. NW is a legend in my eyes for the things he has done for this club. I just feel the ghosts of last season need to be laid to rest.

Point one. Anybody whos paying to go to an evening with Neil Warnock and Ronnie Jepson needs to get a life.
Point two. Who gives a shit what they are saying. He was here, hes gone and they aint coming back. Move on. The club needs a clean slate. Not fans droning on about the past and keeping a cloud of negativity over it.

So now we know 100% without question Cartwright is the problem, which most people will have been fairly sure about already. We were warned about him by our friend from Stoke chadders.
What concerns me most moving forwards is will duff have enough control to assert his authority on the playing squad? I hope he can be ballsy and stand up to this none sense by our DOF and CEO.
Kevin made a mistake. He's made a few and admitted it. The biggest one I forsee moving forwards is not having Directors who can create a high performance environment with the manager/Head Coach and/or someone without that ability sitting in the managers office.
There are plenty of options out there for good DOFs with a good book of upto date players. This game changes so quickly you have to run hard to keep up.
I just hope the club can Direct itself out of the self created pickle and learn to make better long term decisions for the club, like having some balls and standing upto a manager or Director rather than taking the cowards way out and going around them. That sort of environment will win nowhere.
Happy holidays:)

The problem is the people making the decisions, if they are in it for themselves rather than the club or the team, which every big decision suggests they are (Im talking Directors here not chairman), then how do we expect 1 manager and coaching staff to pull everyone around with these 2 shit decision makers are Directing everyone? Its only going to create resentment, which is no recepie for success. Lets pray duff is strong enough to fix that obvious problem.

It might not be to everyone's taste, but if that's what people want to do, what does it matter to you?

A 22 year old being publically embarrassed in front of millions. He's still starting out in football. That was well out of order and will take a lot of getting over. He was awful that day, it was such a half arsed performance we'd have been better without him on the pitch and playing with 10 men. I've just been back and had a look on our WhatsApp group to find the exact wording of what I'd typed BEFORE he'd made the balls up for the goal. "Rudoni appears to have fucked off to the beach today 🤬"

I understand Neil getting annoyed by the comments made by AB but calling him a buffoon (one of the best paid since IM/AD) is stooping a bit to his level, the quotes about the Leicester game & his own record were all he needed to say really.....Lets see where AB ends up (if anywhere) after Summer with plenty Bundesliga jobs on offer, mind you Vinny snapped up the best one!

All Warnock cares about is people like you lining his pockets, not Huddersfield Town football club. We need a bit of Unity amongst the fanbase this season.

All this love for Town didn't stop him fucking us off for Plymouth after promotion in the 90's. I was gutted then and never forgot it. IMO.. Whatever the tale was then, is the same as now, I expect. Ego(s) clash. No one can be 'certain' we were to stay up with him, IMO. For all his success, he has been sacked and not missed by half a dozen other teams that I can think of off the top of my head... Either way.. Past is the past. Some, usual suspects, thriving on the potential for negativity like flies around shit. When the rest of the board appears in general upbeat mode looking forward the new season! UTT etc

I was at the event, and have posted exactly what was said so it now puts the debate to bed as everyone has had their say, Nagle, Breitenreiter and Warnock. I'd have been just as interested if it was an Evening With Lou Macari [or any other random ex Town manager].

I give Warnock and Jepson more credit than AB. we have all seen that AB failed worse than DM & Buzz so who gives anything he cares to say any credibility at all? He just showed us that he did not give a fig and then jumped ship. As to point two we can't give the club a clean slate when they have messed up in such a poor way and the half-wits that dropped us to League one are still making decisions about our future.

AB was the worst manager we have had for some time, at the end of his tenure calling the players out after he failed to bring anything to the party is just building himself an excuse. In a group of any workers you get the full range of different types of personality and if you are in chage you have to be able to deal with them. AB calling Warnock out for the pre season after DM had been in place for months after then is laughable. Warnock has his faults but taking anything as gospel from AB is just showing your own bias. Oh, the irony. Ben, like most of us has actually watched the players this season. No bias whatsoever. He may have watched, but did he watch last season? DM and even worse AB, completely useless. So you rate AB's history higher than his actual performance at town and more than Warnock's efforts, if so shame on you.

Also, the poster who did the write up said “He then added, “the lads kept ringing us.

He has been an abject failure and looked around for something to blame and we got a dig at Wornocks pre season, but no mention of DM much longer role. We also got a dig at the players. I can see that in any bunch of players there will be some that are more difficult than others, but to try and walk away pointing the finger after the results he gave us is a tall order. AB was worse than Buzz and DM he was just an out and out failure and should not be give any credence at all.

My main point is that with the Directors being the same ones who made the decisions last year, how do we ensure duff has the ability to create the high performance environmental he wants. For exibit a see the tripe coming out of Cartwrights mouth at the prezzer.

Remember that...for Town Not some prick in his 50,s wearing stone island thinking he's one of the lads!!..and got us Relegated and threw everyone under the bus!!

There’s plenty of other players in the squad and in the past who are of similar age who would not be made excuses for.

There’s plenty of other players in the squad and in the past who are of similar age who would not be made excuses for. Imagine if it had been Tom Edwards.
