So Terriers lets get down and dirty with the 'nitty gritty'


Huddersfield go into this game on the back of 3 wins and 2 draws from our last 5 games DWWWD. Last saturday was disappointing after getting our noses in front against a battling and committed Tranmere outfit. We possibly should have come away with 3 points instead of 1 had it not been for inters favourite player Tom Clarke nodding off at the front post (and dont deny hes ur fav cos u texted into the radio and it was read out).
Even 38 Years got on the radio saying how much he loves lc when he texted in it was read out just after the final whistle (anyone able to find the link?)

So the Dons like to play quickly with their pass and move game theyve been famous for but in my opinion we can pass and move it with the best of them if we are 'UP FOR IT'.
In my opinion itll be an easier game than usual at home as the dons will come to try play us off the park and gain all 3 points. However theyll have to do better than tuesday vs our feathered friends the wendies as they didnt manage 1 shot on target in the entire 90+ minutes! PATHETIC


MK DONS FORM:

In the DONS last 5 outings theyve drawn 3 and won 2 DWDWD, this isnt too bad but they are a few places below us from their points haul this season thus far.


TEAM NEWS:


TOWN: Hopefully Wardy, Lee and Woods will be available for selection plus the new signing Kallum Higginbotham

MKDONS: The Dons hope to welcome back Darren Potter after illness, and a possible debut for James Tavernier.


So Town fans and Dons fans alike.. Whats your team selections and opinions on how the game will go..


My Prediction: TOWN 3 DONS 0


Sorry its late-ish but im a hard working man!

OVER TO YOU....

bryce no cas isnt but was just trying to prove a point that it wasnt the players who lost us 2 points todays it was the managers inability to make positive changes that were needed on the 60th minute before the goal. the players played well today in comparison to other recent games. unfortunately lc is a useless twot

I agree pal, My mate said he wouldnt do foo call till they equalised, He is pants, Did you notice how MKs Gaffer made full use of the players on the bench ? And took one of theres off as soon as he looked like he had a knock.

It would be no surprise to myself to see Cads, The new boy and Gobern picking up injuries which will rule them out of the game next week, FFs Cads was nigh on sat on the bench at one point.

The players did well today? Gobern and Miller couldn't pick a pass to save their lives and both wingers were ineffective pretty much the whole match. The defenders did well and Rhodes didn't have much to do but we certainly didn't "play well" in the second half. The first half was good but we didn't carry it on, we stopped playing and were were second best up until the last 5 minutes of the second half.

As for me being a Clarkite, I'm pretty sure I casted my vote of no confidence long before you.

Just seen their goal again, would smithies have saved that with being taller? I think so.

Good turnout y'day, nearly 16,000 (tickets sold)..
Should be 20,000 plus for sheff utd but a win at orient is a must now..we can't afford to slip 7 or 8 points behind 2nd place.
