You see a lot with newly promoted teams. They get a few early wins, things look good and then they start dropping like a stone. They'll be in the bottom 5 come the end of the season I think. They've done incredibly well but aren't geared up to be a long term Premier League team like Newcastle or Brighton even.

The thing about away games for us is that the home teams fans will be expecting to see their team attack, like we saw last night. We are the best team at capitalising on gaps left.
We'll have nearly all the possession, we'll control the game but we can't rule Huddersfield out. They have pace and various goal scorers.
If Eriksen continues his form the he'll run the show, and Kane is hungry for goals.

They will finish higher than Brighton this season.
They have Man Utd, Chelsea, Newcastle and West Ham between now and then.... It's definitely possible.
No chance. Brighton are a well backed team and they'll be able strengthen in January if they need to. Huddersfield will have to make do with what they've got. A good manager can only do so much, they're just too short of PL quality to survive I think.
Huddersfield is blessed with plenty of good pubs so you really don't have to go to a 'spoons. However, not sure what will be open at 10.18!! I have named a few pubs below and non of these places are more than 10-15 mins walk to the ground and 5 mins from the station.We are just going to enjoy Saturday. We have no limits or expectations.
The Rat & Ratchet
The Sportsman.
The Grove.
The Slubbers Arms.
These are good pubs with excellent ales and welcome away fans. Only pub I wouldn't recommend is The Vulcan which is a proper home pub. The police will try and get a lot of you to use "The Boy & Barrell" but it is a hole so don't go there.
You forgot the legend that is Andy Booth.
Don't know about great ales, but there are some cracking pub names there.
What's a Slubber?
Don't tell me, a person who slubs
Thanks for those. Think the others who arrive late just want a quick pint so will probably stay with the spoons then head to one of your suggestions post game for a civilised pint
If we could please not hurt Aaron Mooy so that he is fit for Australia's World Cup playoff qualifier next week, that'd be great.
No European hangover excuses for this one. We had an easy game in a beautiful climate. The team were back at home in bed for 5am the morning after the game. Lots of 1st team starters didn't play.
Just treat the team with the respect they deserve, don't underestimate them, play our game and we'll beat them.

Not sure but it is connected to the old woollen industry.
You watch the eagles get something from us though.
I am getting up at 5 a.m. for this. You have no idea about the First World problems I have.
