Huddersfield Presser....
In a fairly good place for fitness
better than what we thought we would be, every came back relatively fit
those who stayed behind have got fitter, people have done a lot of travelling
we have another 3 game week, so will be interesting to prepare
Lads who stayed had a practice match against MK Dons, valuable minutes for people
we are ready and prepared for another difficult test, in another busy period
Ross is looking really good, he stepped up against MK, played longer
I do not want to put too much expectation on him as he has been out for a long time
He is building up really nicely and fully part of the squad, he has been impressive
Jack stephens back on the grass and the group were clapping when they saw him
Will take a little bit of time, but he is coming back and he is really important
The opposition may be a factor on who plays where up front, it is an educated guess for all managers
We will be adaptable on who plays from what positions, but the players understand different roles they may be asked to play
it will change again, despite the consistency in selection, the squad is hugely important
Will be sitting in the Directors Box as have a 1 match ban. Be frustrating but I have to learn from this
I doubt it will not impact the team, but it is an annoyance. 2 of the bookings I got were nonsensical
As a group we are pretty calm for most of the game, then get punished for a moment, yet other 4th officials can get abused all game and nothing happens
Darren Moore is a great guy, they will make it difficult, like they did against Hull
They will have worked hard over the last 2 weeks, but we must dictate the game
The job he did at Wednesday was fantastic, look forward to seeing him after and speaking to him
He will probably do a great job over time at Huddersfield
10 games in the next 37 days, this is a long season and we have fought so hard to put ourselves back where we are
that effort must be maintained as other teams just keep winning
we must just focus on ourselves, but now the table is taking shape, but teams can still come from nowhere and get into the playoffs
we are not where we want to be, but now the momentum is building, the supporters can now feel it, and we can feel it.
We beat WBA with spirit as the performance was not good, the crowd were onside, and is part of our building
we have so much where we can improve and we will
The whole club is building momentum and the ladies team is part of that. it will be a brilliant occasion
The improvement is not just with the main teams, but the academies are growing
