Huge Huge game today... Lose and we will be in serious do do (as if we’re not in enough of it already) ☹️ But I think we will get a draw - PREDICTION = Millwall 1 Huddersfield Town 1 Well it was very late but we did get the draw in the end and glad to have called it correctly although it should be a game we’d be looking to win... Some interesting games and match days ahead in a Championship which changes by the second far less the minute or the hour ! Dramatic it’s gonna be for sure and I guess today buys Darren Moore a wee (wee) bit of breathing space - Intersting times ahead for sure ! Just nice to get a goal with the last kick of the game without being on the receiving end of such a sickening scenario for once ! 😊 |

Yes, fair points. However, my own reaction to when Millwall scored has surprised me a little bit. Myself (and I think the Town fans in general) hardly reacted to it at all and my first thought was well now DM has to do something, he has to react because we are losing. I think he’s a dead man walking and I can’t say I saw anything to convince me that he did something to influence the result after Millwall had scored, but the fact is we got a draw. Like I said, maybe it’s just muddying the waters a bit. He brought Koroma on for Hogg with almost 20 minutes to play (inc added time). Unfortunately Josh added the square root of not very much. What would you have done? Out of interest...does Moore take responsibility for JK lack of form and confidence? Because he wasn't like this before the managerial change. Take your point about options from the bench though |

Watched most of it on a stream and thought we were much much better than on Tuesday, we did most of the running and up until the final ball played some nice stuff. It would have been unfair if we hadn’t got anything.
Edit: forgot to mention, I thought Millwall were really poor, helped by us being more on it, but I think we’re currently a better team than them, and if we do spend in January they’re definitely a team we’re capable of finishing above.

Okay it’s a point but everyone needs to search their feelings and that will tell you we’ve seen enough to know this chump isn’t the coach/manager that we require... dull tepid boring football and even with better players would he approach things differently? I doubt it, he’s just too scared to try to win , Get rid now give us some hope that’s the least the support deserves ....and it is doom and gloom to answer an earlier poster, it’s pretty bad let’s face it, anyone who is satisfied with this shite week in week out just hasn’t the best interest of Huddersfield at heart I'm far from satisfied - it has been awful. We just don't have any depth to rotate players at present. We certainly lack quality but I couldn't fault the effort today |

One thing struck me today, apart from the fact we have fewer teeth than a 95 year old. an hour in, Miwwwaww are one nil up. They make a double sub. We do nowt. On Tuesday we had just gained some momentum and DM changed it for the worse. We lsot any foothold we had gained. Today we needed some, he does fuck all. He's shite. Other than Koroma, who came on later for Hogg, an attacking swap but partly due to Hogg being on a yellow, who could he have brought on to change the game? Cons: Still pretty toothless with little attacking intent. Pros: Rudoni played 90 minutes. Kasumu looks to be getting fully fit again. A point away at Millwall. They kept going until the end, 97th minute winner. We are still the same poor squad we were before the game but we have only lost one of the past 6. Moore is going to slated every game unless we win by at least a couple of clear goals but with the poor attacking options we have it isn't going to happen before the window. |

I’ve said many times I almost never watch Town on TV, if I’m not at the game I don’t want to know what’s happening till it’s over. Just me. However, I watched the PNE game on Sky a few days ago, hated it. Having been at the game today I’m slightly surprised to read that the majority of fans that presumably watched today on iFollow or whatnot thought today was shocking. I just didn’t think it was that bad really. In my opinion it was a lot better than PNE; it was still pretty mediocre but it wasn’t bad, and the result was OK. Agreed. Some people seem fixated on doom, gloom, despondency and anger. It feels like some compete with each other to shout the loudest and criticise our club at every level. Balance and perspective go out of the window when some folk appear to crave 'likes' on social media. But you don't offer balance and perspective give. You just offer club establishment propaganda. |

Its true. His subs have been dreadful since ho cost us that point v Ipswich in his first game.
His first game in charge was at Coventry when we stole a point with a 95th minute equaliser. But I do take your point... Yes. My memory not what it was. |

I thought we had a good shape and any change would have been risky. What would you have done differently? We were losing, against a team on a similar or maybe worse run of form than us. We weren’t drawing, we were losing. I think the fact you’ve brought up the word risk is interesting, DM seems totally risk averse but surely he could have made a switch earlier? Try and affect the game positively rather than hope something that had brought a grand total of one shot on goal may change eventually. |

I fully accept our attacking option from the bench amounted to Koroma and nobody else. However, DM could have pushed Headley to the front, wide left. I also think Rudoni has the potential to actually play up front. |

Koroma had the shot that resulted in a penalty and a draw so he contributed positively.

We're missing a point here. Yes, it's a poor and imbalanced squad but we had a manager who could get a tune out of it. Koroma is the litmus paper for a decent manager and right now we haven't got one.

That's the thing though. Cartwright spoke so much of his little black book of contacts upon arrival. And the best he came up with in the summer was a 6 year out of date wonderkid on loan from his beloved Stoke. I wouldn't trust that chancer with car parking duties never mind a January transfer budget. Here, here, anyone who got rid of NW and RJ for Darren Moore needs certifying, the Mitchell brothers are out of their depth on anything football related. Kev take note. It's hear, hear. |

Yes, very sad, they are a fantastic little club but it’s proving to be a season too far. They won’t sack the manager though, it’s not what they do. |

He isn't the man for the job. We all know it. The fans don't want him here. However they aren't going to relive him of his duties after we have pulled another point clear of the bottom 3 are they? I think that's probably right. Those who aren't convinced are going to need to see a significant turn around to change their mind. Moreover there's only so many times that you can state your frustration. Foer all the words and posts we are relying on a handful of people to get things right and/or make a decision. Unless something dramatic happens, either way perhaps the time has come to see what happens? Just how bad do we have to get? A luck point away from home dose not make him a good manager, not even an average manager. |

Gosh there's some miseries on here. Some players were out on their feet yet kept going until the end and earned us a deserved point. You can see the lack of confidence in some. If Sorba had been at his best we'd have won today. Great to see Jack is back Sobra being at his best well when was that then? I maybe a minority on here but your Sobra is terrible at Free kicks, Crosses, Corners and for running into rabbit holes where he gets crowded out. He can't tackle for toffee, that why he doesn't have shin pads on, socks down, lazy, poor, Did I miss something? I suspect you're a closet Blackburn supporter - you've echoed exactly what the Rovers supporters all felt about him, to a man/ woman. |

Watched a fair bit of the game today. A difficult place to get a point, but was pleased with how Rudoni continually tried to get us on the front foot. That’s one thing that does my head in, how we collect a pass facing back to the goal, or square on.
Let’s hope we keep him fit…
