The Back-From-The-Game Thread - Huddersfield Town

[notjon]

Its a pain having to find where the guys who have actually been to the game start posting amongst the armchair warrior posts.

[thesaint sfc]

Well I think it's up to one of the fans who have been to the game to post a 'just back from the game' thread. If the mods posted it and no one replied to it, they would look silly and the implications on here would be horrendous and quite probably life changing.

[Master Bates]

Can't see many people who would have just back from the game, unless they slept at the Stadium all night.

agree. I always like to see the reports/comments on away games from those who went but finding them amongst bickering get tedious

[Thedelldays]

I think we should have a seperate forum for those with season tickets and one for us gypos

Excellent idea.

You have a keyboard and a forum at your disposal. Stop following the herd and start another thread. We might even make it a Sticky for you.

 

On the other hand, I'll edit your title, and this thread can do the job. OK..?

[OldNick]

Good game , top marks for all

[Evil Monkey]

I was at the game.

[OldNick]

I was at the game.

was that the Lazio one

[SNSUN]

After the game I got in my car in Lime Street, drove back to Surrey and had to be straight to bed to be up at 5:15 today for work! Hence no posting from me last night.

 

Flawless performance. If I HAVE to look for negatives, which I am loathe to do, then Jaidi's clearances weren't brilliant last night. Umm, that's it. Oh, and I hit my back on the advertising hoarding in the Kingsland on the Camera run. There, I said it.

 

MOTM Puncheon for most people I would expect, but Barnard for me.

[Evil Monkey]

Conceding 5 goals at St Marys...ahh, those were the days.

[Kingsland Red]

As usual, I can confirm I was at St Marys Stadium last evening.

[for_heaven's_Saint]

I too was at the game, does anyone know what was going on in the away fans? Someone in a Pompey shirt I believe?

[ericb]

Either it was a really stupid huddersfield fan or a skate, either way he got turfed out by the stewards. Never understood why people do that to be honest since it always ends up with them being thrown out.

[mightysaints]

That was one of the best displays i have ever seen at St Marys or the Dell in 35 years.

[Fan The Flames]

I'm going to a game tonight am I allowed to join this club.

[St Landrew]

I'm going to a game tonight am I allowed to join this club.

 

After so many inept replies to this thread, I'm not sure it was worth starting after all. Which means, I'm not sure there'll be a club to join.

[Glasgow_Saint]

I went to the old firm game Sunday can I join?

[70's Mike]

Not this week, try again on Saturday

[Saintjersey]

I too was at the game' date=' does anyone know what was going on in the away fans? Someone in a Pompey shirt I believe?[/quote']

 

The funny thing was they started throwing them out only after 20 minutes....... then again maybe they were glad they did after the final scoreline.

[Gigersaint]

I wondered if it was a Huddersfield fan wearing a Pompey shirt as some kind of wind up last night, after viewing one of their main forums when I got home for their view on the game several of them mentioned that it was a Pompey fan amongst them.

[Trumush]

I thought the one touch stuff in the second half ( albeit against a beaten side) was a joy to watch.

 

Took me back to, dare I say it the Alan Ball,Steve Williams days.

 

A compliment indeed !!!

[Smirking_Saint]

Here is a novel idea, you could just read through the post match thread and scroll through until you find someone that has posted a match report.

Yeah I think we'll go back to that for the next match.

[Weston Saint]

Sorry why is this a sticky? I have found no comment helpful or enlightening. We have a match thread.

[troutmask]

This is a guerilla post Never went to the game but im gonna nip in, quick post and out of here silently. What a result!

totally agree, the one touch stuff was a fantastic view.

 

some of the triangles we were playing were stunning. It really came accross as the team had a real understanding of eachother, i.e they knew when a player would be behind them...so they could backheal it, or step over it etc

 

it was sheer perfection and simply stunning at times.

Don't forget Ivan Golac, and for the even older fans the first goal brought back memories Paine crossing for Davies to score (or so I'm told)

I've got Ivan Golacs autograph still - fact.

[Saint Fan CaM]

It was the type of game that had you not bought a ticket and been there, you would never believe Saints could play so well. As a club we were awesome last night - a complete and majestic performance.

 

Best chant? (Love this!)

 

"Are you Walsall? Are you Walsall? Are you Walsall in disguise? Are you Walsall in disguise?!"

Well, come on. Any interesting motivation that was embedded in the OP was ruined by the knob-measuring challenge...

I think you mean Walsall, it was 0-0 v Wycombe.

[TUS]

What game?

[RedAndWhite91]

I went to the game.

 

It was fantastic.

 

That is all.

Walsall, surely?

 

And yes, I was at the game.

[Goalie66]

One of the best performances I have seen from Saints since V Spurs in 2003. It was that good.

[Stu Man Do]

He'd have been better off putting his 20 quid towards his own club surely? ;-)

Rather than throwing him out they should have popped him down in a nice seat so he could enjoy it with the rest of us.

[LostBoys]

Great performance and yes I was there and Walsall and away at Norwich. Trying for Tranmere

[Master Bates]

I was there in spirit.

 

I tried giving away my season ticket for the match, but for some strange reason not one person wanted to use it.

[St Landrew]

Sorry why is this a sticky? I have found no comment helpful or enlightening. We have a match thread.

 

It was for people who had gone to the match to write up their experiences and impressions of the team's performance. That's why we made it a Sticky. Won't be making the same mistake again.

[hypochondriac]

TBH the back from the game threads used to be infinitely more interesting when its an away game and you only get a few reports. I think for away games there should always be a back from the game/ player ratings thread.

Well perhaps.

[Asaint4ever]

So glad i whent!!

[boxosponge]

Well I can seriously say the cone of chips I had from St Marys Chippy was the best chips I've ever had. And that was before the match.

[TheSaint75]

Ok i will add a sensible comment!

 

Brilliant throughout, sharp passing, aggressive when trying to win the ball back and closed them down quickly. Rarely do you see that level of quality even in the higher leagues.

We got to the byline regularly and produced some fantastic crosses, we got several players in the box when it counted and TBH we should have had a few more goals.

All in all one of the most complete performances you will see (or not as the case may be)

 

WTF did a poopey fan feel the need to come to a saints game, shame he showed his colours and got ejected at the start of the game, if he had left it nearer to the end I'm sure he would have had a nice reception from a waiting crowd, what a f'in mong!

 

COYR

[astrasri]

One of the best performances I have seen from Saints since V Spurs in 2003. It was that good.

 

May I suggest that we were immensely better last night because we gave them no real chances to get into the game. In that Spurs game, had Keane been more on form we might have struggled to get the result that we did. Last night was domination across the whole team, it didn't rely on any opposing player having an off day.

[brmbrm]

I went

 

I came back

 

We won and we were brilliant

 

And its actually my team for a change

 

And MOM = pretty much everyone: all played well, and if any individual had played a stinker we would still have been great. Lovely passing. this is not a league 1 side (when playing well). In the form the last 4 games we would hold our own in the premiership, i reckon.

[paris]

Went to Walsall and last night Fantastique ten goals in two games nuff said 10/10 from top to bottom......

 

All i can say is because i don't get the occasion to go a lot after Saturday i tried to do everything around the match the same i did manage to get a ticket in about the same place i arrived to watch the team warming up before i bought a new scarf on sat so that went on the same way etc etc ....

As i left i noticed a couple of girls walking past the Ted Bates stat and touching one of his foots which i thought was a nice touch do other's do this either bf or after??
