Town 0 - 0 Yeovil

On a freezing tuesday night 10,719 fans came to the Galpharm to see the battle of the Towns. Huddersfield and Yeovil. After a long long trip up the Yeovil fans made them selves heard all game. But Towns (Hudders) new scheme seemed to work. They mixed the home fans into the South stand for the first time in over half a decade. This was to get a better atmosphere behind the goals. The town fans were making them selves heard but the players couldnt make this pay.

Since the off Town were straight at Yeovil being the better team but they couldnt direct the ball past Yeovil keeper Asmir Begovic. But it was Yeovil who had the first attack in the second minute from Murtagh. But then Flyyn saw his shot well parried away from Begovic and then after 16minutes Liam Dickinson got going and he hit the outside of the net. Later Roberts and yet again Dickinson were stopped by the in form Yeovil keeper. Then came Dickinsons first free kick as he surprised Town fans with his effort as it nearly crept in at the near post but yet again it went into the side netting. Butler nearly scored but yet again Yeovil's on loan keeper tiped it over the bar. Roberts then nearly ruffled the back of the net in the 38th minute but his low hard shot was well saved from the Yeovil keeper again. In the 42nd minute Liam had his 2nd free kick but like the first could only find the outside of the net. Then minutes later he had another atempt and against all odds he curled in round the wall and clipped the post.

The second haf started ata quick tempo and the Town fans were singing none stop for about 10-15mins with the song 'Blue Army'. The first two attempts were flashed over by Flyyn and Williams. Parker almost got the goal but Begovic was there again to deny him then Yeovil started an attack with ex Town legend Danny Schofield at the heart of it. But Yeovil sub Warne couldnt direct the ball past Town keeper Glennon. Minutes after Yeovil manger Slade made his second change Goodwin had Towns next best chance and then about 7 mintues after that Darren Way nearly headed in for Yeovil. Town then made there first and second sub with on loan striker Steve Jones and Andy Holdsworth coming on replacing Jon Worthington and Jim Goodwin. Then Dickinson almost scored again but this time was denied by the out stretching leg of a Yeovil defender. Yeovil maybe should of scored but Warne's effort was poor and was hit into the side netting. The game was coming to a close and the Town fans were getting impacient again with the song 'Ternant Out'.

0-0 in a game which could have gone either way i believe M.O.M was Towns on loan striker Liam Dickinson who had a great game and deserved a goal. Hoefully Town can keep hold of him.

Just a snippet of how good us Town fans are. BLUE ARMY! BLUE ARMY! BLUE ARMY! BLUE ARMY!

Peterborough 4 - 0 Town

Town Slump to defeat

Aaron Mclean took centre stage as Peterborough stretched their unbeaten League One streak to nine matches with a 4-0 win over Huddersfield.
The prolific striker celebrated his first start since dislocating an elbow seven weeks ago with a double.
The former Grays man opened and competed the scoring as Darren Ferguson's side made light work of a sorry Huddersfield who have now conceded nine goals in two games.
Mclean broke the deadlock with a rasping 12th-minute finish after George Boyd had danced into the box and provider turned goalscorer 12 minutes later when Boyd doubled the lead after being released from midfield by Paul Coutts.
There was further misery for Huddersfield after the break when Chris Whelpdale (51) headed a classy third goal before Mclean's shot slipped under Matt Glennon's body after 63 minutes.
There was more misery for Town in stoppage-time with skipper Chris Lucketti dismissed for a professional foul on home striker Craig Mackail-Smith.

Town 1 - 1 Bristol Rovers

The terriers came into this game full of confidence after a 3-1 win last week at the County Ground, Swindon. New striker Steve Jones, on loan from Burnley, was set to make his debut in front of the Town fans.

Ternant starting 11 for the game was as follows ;

----------------- Glennon-----------------

Goodwin-----Clarke-----Butler-----Skarz

------Worthington--Craney--Flynn------

Jones-----------------------------Roberts

-----------------Dickinson-----------------

When the teams stepped out onto the pitch they could hear the roaring noise of the Towns barmy army. The fans chanting from the off the terriers were bossing the game from the off to the delight of the Town fans. Then the break through came after 7mins as Flynn hit a shot which skidded across the ground with real venom leading the Rovers keeper with no chance as the ball ruffled the back of the net. The move started off with Goodwin, Jones, Roberts and Worthington as they worked the ball round nicely then Dickinson collected the ball just insede the area but then he got tackled which thread the ball into the path of Flynn who hit a powerfull shot from the edge of the area.

The game then went a bit queit but Roberts volley coming close in the 17th minute and then not long after Dickinson didnt make the best of his chance as he lobbed it up in the air with no distance. Goodwin then cleared off the line a few minutes after. The game went a bit queit with Town best chance coming in the 33rd minute when Roberts ball found the head of Jones who just put it wide of the Rovers net. Then a moment for Glennon to forget when he misjudged the flight of the ball missing it but luckily Flynn was there to save him. The teams went into half time as Town were leading 1-0.

Whatever was said in the Terries changing room at half time obviously didn't work as in the 54th minute Bristol Rovers equalised with a cleverly worked goal. Disley's ball from the right was near the front post and Rovers top goalscorer Lambert was there to finish on the volley. However the Town fans were still in good tune apart from the set back and tried to get the team going. Steve Jones and Roberts both got booked for Town before Ternant made his first change bringing on Keigan Parker for Ian Craney. However he didnt make impact on the game which was dying down a bit with nothing really happening. Ternant then went on to make 2 more subs bringing on Collins for Worthington and then Williams for Skarz.

The last 10 minutes came and Town had most of the possesion but couldnt find there team mates. They were not progessing anywhere and nearly everytime was finding a Rovers shirt not a Town shirt. You could hear the angry Town fans as they were starting to get impaccient. Sloppy is the word to describe Town in the second half. The final whistle went and the game finished 1-1. Town fans were not happy with the result as Town were anything but good in the second half.

The attendance was 13,779 which were mostly Town fans. Town now sit 16th in the table after that result whilst Rovers are 3 places above us in 13th.

Town's Glorious History

Early History

In 1907, the Huddersfield Association Football Ground Co. was formed and, with capital of £500, set about purchasing the Leeds Road recreation fields. In the summer of 1908, Huddersfield Town AFC was launched and Leeds Road was officially opened on 2 September 1908 with a friendly against Bradford Park Avenue. Their first match in senior competition, on 5 September, was against South Shields Adelaide, wearing salmon pink shirts.
Huddersfield entered the Football League in 1910. In November 1919 a fund-raising campaign was needed to stave off a move to Leeds! Citizens of Huddersfield were asked to buy shares in the club of £1 each, and the club staved off the proposed merger. Remarkably, the team went on to reach the 1920 FA Cup Final and win promotion to Division One.
Town subsequently won the First Division Championship for three consecutive years 1923–24, 1924–25, and 1925–26. Herbert Chapman led them to the first two titles and then left to take over at Arsenal. Cecil Potter then took charge, to guide Huddersfield Town to their third consecutive First Division Championship. They were the first club to achieve this success. After being losing finalists against Aston Villa, they won the FA Cup 1–0 against Preston North End on 29 April 1922 at Stamford Bridge. They also won the Charity Shield in 1922.

Modern Times

Before the 1999 - 2000 season, Rubery and managing director Ian Ayre talked up the side's chances of promotion the following year pointing to the acquisition of the high-profile Steve Bruce as a clear indication of their ambition. More serious investment brought the likes of Clyde Wijnhard, Chris Lucketti, Giorgos Donis, Scott Sellars, Kenny Irons, Ken Monkou and Dean Gorré to the club. The Terriers tore up the Division for the first few months playing attractive attacking football in the 7–1 annihilation of Crystal Palace, plus notable wins over rivals Ipswich Town, Manchester City and Nottingham Forest. The side even scored a famous 1–0 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in the League Cup and were widely considered to be 'the best Town side in 30 years'.

A Backward Step

Following the narrow play-off defeat in May 2006 to neighbours Barnsley, the 2006–07 season started with high hopes that this would be the year that Huddersfield Town would make the step up to the Championship. Peter Jackson showed his confidence by extending his contract until May 2009. Notwithstanding the arrival of Luke Beckett departures, including Junior Mendes, exceeded arrivals.
