Huddersfield Town (h) Sat 24.4.21

[Uddersfelt Blue]

So I was just reminded that we have a game tomorrow whilst listening to a couple of Town fans talking outside the chippy in Brighouse. I told them not to worry too much. 

As for Rovers, well what can I say that hasn’t already been said. A dead rubber of a game that will see us giving the squad a rotation. 

Can’t get too excited so not expecting too many responses to this thread.

They're about as bad as us.

Honestly think this will be Mowbray's dead rubber win. 

Then it will be 2 wins from 3 and what are us unreasonable fans moaning for?

2-1 Rovers, Armstrong and Gallagher 

[tomphil]

Hudds 1  Rovers  3

Dead rubber season is well upon us and our midtable messiah might be hanging contract renewals in front of several senior bods, who have needed moving on for ages.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

I've told my son if he wants to watch it, he's paying!

[Ulrich]

Have no fear Uddersfelt I am sure you will get plenty of replies, I just expect them not to be positive in nature.

I tried to pick a team of our players only, including some youngsters on the bench and got lost and had to give up. Will Nyambe be fit? If not, Travis should start at RB. HB has to start alongside Lenihan. Bell instead of Douglas.

Midfield needs Buckley and Davenport and possibly Rothwell.

Up front I'd like to see Brereton and Armstrong but with who? Probably Dolan.

Bench has to have Pears, Gallagher, Douglas, Branthwaite,

Then we have the old brigade of Evans, Johnson and Bennett.

Nolan, McBride, oh stuff it.     I don't know anymore..........Bloody Shambles!        

 

[Ossydave]

Weather looks nice tomorrow, fair play to anyone watching but I most certainly won't be.

Score I'd go for 0-0.

[Hoochie Bloochie Mama]

This should be an absolute cracker as the battle for 18th reaches a climax. 

Thanks Mowbray.

It’s frightening how far we’ve fallen, and how much Mowbray is holding us back.

When you consider that, according to transfermarkt, we are fifth in the market value stakes, it’s the equivalent of Spurs being relegation near misses in the PL.

1-1. ‘Real positives’ for Mowbray in his post match presser.

Mowbray has done you mate.  Dumbed you down to death. Relegation central midfield partnership.

[DeeCee]

Is there a game tomorrow?

[Fraserkirky]

Will be the first game I’ve missed all season

[Mercer]

Night before a match and just a dozen or so posts - says it all about the apathy.

Just who cares what happens in tomorrow's match.

Could be more watching me barbecue tomorrow - succulent steaks, sizzling sausages and 'magic' mushrooms all accompanied by a memorable Malbec (the Hermandad).

Another nonsense stat/table which includes 22 million loan values and a value on Ayala (an example of a few) dreamt up by a substance abuser.

[WacoRover]

It’s embarrassing to say this, but I would be relieved with a point; ecstatic bordering on euphoric if we actually claimed all 3 pts from that football juggernaut, Huddersfield Town. 

Then again, I might just forget about the game entirely. 

Yawn... back to New Tricks on Amazon.

[AllRoverAsia]

I've just tried to compose half a dozen posts about this fixture but rejected the lot.

Basically not that interested but I'll be watching it out of habit.

[darrenrover]

I’m meeting some of my Rovers following pals at Lunch time for a couple of pints. It’s the first time we’ll have got together in person for 18 months. 
 

I’m a ‘thick and thin’ follower of BRFC but suspect I would have given today’s game a complete swerve had I not arranged to meet my mates.

I’m beside myself with so much anger at the contempt that this set of cnuts treat us and our club with. Please help me to rid ourselves of the scourge once and for all.

[MarkBRFC]

Huddersfield are just as bad as Derby, we'll sneak this one due to them being hopeless and no other reason.

Aside from hiring a team of secret forensic accountants or a hitman i'm not sure how we can.

Disclaimer - I'm not advocating shooting anyone, i'd sure like to hit a few though at times !

Couldn’t really be bothered, I won’t be watching, Mowbray and Waggott OUT

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

The usual disinterested group of players will stroll through a bore fest ending with a 1-1 draw.  The lucky fans will be the ones who fall asleep by the half time interval.

Fourty odd years ago I was told a tale about jolly Jack Marshall at an end of season game getting some deck chairs out to sit in to watch the game from rather than the dug out. Lovely day could well see tomo doing something similar this afternoon. Be far more comfortable for a kip during the game!
