Didnt we do that the season before? Just missed out on relegation two seasons running, third time lucky? Just missed out on relegation? We were safe in March! Relied on other teams to help us out. Progress?

The final table masks our shockingly bad form since January. I see the likelihood of our end of season form continuing into the new season as quite high right now.

Pretty depressing that we constantly have to sell our best players to survive Could not agree more. To me it shows no commitment in building a good squad of players to compete regularly at this level. It does, however, show a commitment to keeping a solvent football club in the Town of Huddersfield. When Dean came one of the first things he said was if another club ever comes in for our players or Manager it will prove that we are doing something right. Anyone who doesn't think we have to balance the books and strive to be self sufficient is just dreaming. Clayton was a good player and I am sorry to see him go but all good players in the final year of a contract will have pressures to move and if he wanted away then I didn't want him at Town. I have been plenty depressed watching Town over the years and have had literally dozens of pre seasons when we signed nobody as we didn't have the preverbial "two happenies to rub together". Trust me, this is not a depressing time to be a Town fan. Living beyond our means and going into administration was depressing and I never want to feel like that again.Can't wait for the new season.

Are you privvie to the financial state of our club? I can troll out statements such as this regarding overspending and keeping the club solvent. I do not wish to return to the dark days of overspending but you cannot tell me that our club has been on a feeding frenzy when it has come to purchasing new players this season.

Don't rate him. Too slow,gets caught in possession,doesn't score many goals,not a dead ball specialist.....£2m? Take it quick and reinvest it and the team will be much stronger. IMO. Yet probably the most consistent player last season? if you dont ratr clayton your knowledge of football is nill

Lets face it, every season we will sell one of our best players and we just have to hope that by some minor miracle that somehow we have a worldy season and get promoted

from what i have seen of Billing in the youth sides give him a chance i think he might just be the man. alternativly CROOKS big strong not bad on the ball and can tackle although MR seems to like him as a CB youve more chance than sinnot or crooks in making it billing is the best prospect of them all including holmes

I just cannot see where the hell we are going at the moment. With no new players as such to strengthen the team this looks like the club is happy to just keep hanging onto a Championship place. You must keep adding something to the squad just to stand still. I get pissed off watching poor football. Win, lose or draw this is about entertainment guys. As long as the team has put in a decent performance then you can ask for no more. We were found wanting too many times the last few seasons. At times we were totally outplayed and not just by the top three clubs, yes we had our moments but they were too few. Before this new season started where do you think the team should have been strengthened? Now ask yourselves have those positions and your concerns been addressed?

Pretty depressing that we constantly have to sell our best players to survive If all or at least half of us could brainwash 1 new friend to come down and buy a season ticket, then this wouldn't be the case. Not to this extent anyway... It's a bit of a vicious circle, the club needs more fans to keep their best players, but the fans won't turn up unless there are quality players in place.
