Huddersfield Town v Rotherham Utd

When & Where
Saturday 7th March 2015. 15:00ko at the John Smiths Stadium

The Big Build Up

Its the first Saturday in March and both Town and Rotherham have 11games left in the season, neither are yet safe from relegation but you have to say both could do with a win here for different reasons
Town- Well after a disasterous week in the capital which returned 0points and a combined 7-1 thrashing by a average Charlton side and a well oiled Brentford side we need to get back on the winning trail, not least because Season Card prices are revealed this weekend and folks cant put up with splashing the cash for little return in he way of Town performances.
Rotherham meanwhile sit one spot above the relegation zone a mere 6points in front of relegation so a win for the Millers could see them nine points from the drop with 10games to go and leave the angry men of Millwall with a mountain to climb

Managers Comments
Chris Powell- taken from Twitter at his pre match presser
CP: "we have a few knocks from midweek - Jack Robinson being one - but we're hoping they'll be ok for Saturday"
CP: "the season is not over. We've had a downturn in fortunes this week, but we need to build momentum again"
CP "we have to get points for this season; we're not relying on others failing. We also wuant to build momentum for next season" 
CP: "we have to improve defensively, for our own benefit. We can't shy away from our record this season. We want to be better"
CP: "we have to carry on & get results this season. Rotherham will come here desperate for 3 points, but we're equally determined" 
CP: "I always take responsibility for my #htafc team; win, lose or draw. I need to show them how to react to a difficult week"
CP: "there's no major overhaul needed here; we have the basis of a good @SkyBetChamp side. We do need to build on some aspects though"
CP: "we've defended naively at times & made bad decisions in vital spells as a team & individuals. We've conceded far too many goals"

Jabba the Hutt- '6 Big Macz with large fries, a bargain bucket family meal, 241 extra large pizzas from Pizza Hut and Dominos....what's that you've got a Papa Johns in Huddersfield go on then what ever they have on offer as well. Say what...you have a Pie loyalty card for the ground, I'll fill my boots with some of that'

Form Guide
Last 6 League games
Town currently sit 19th in the form table with th following record
LDDWLL 5pts

Rotherham currently sit 23rd with the following record
LDLLWL 4pts

not alot in it then

Towns last 6 home games have produced
WWLLDW 10pts

Whilst Rotherhams last 6 away have been
DLDLLL 2pts

This really should be a home win but you never know when it comes to watching Town

Teams
Town need to entertain the restless home crowd so a attacking formation needs to be seen this weekend, we know no matter how many defenders we have on the pitch we are likely to concede
Here's my line up if they are all fit
Smithies
Smith,Hudson,Lynch,Robinson
Scannell,Hogg,Butterfield,Bunn
Vaughan,Wells

Rotherham, no idea of formation sorry about that
Collin
Hunt
Broadfoot
Arnason
Fryers
Newton
Green
Smallwood
Pringle
Ward
Derbyshire

They Played for Both
Crikey this is easy this week.

Jack 'the helmet' Hunt
Town youth player who used to raid down our right hand side but then became billy big B*****ks and demanded a transfer to the big time. To be fair to Jack he was unlucky at Palace with injuries and has tried his luck elsewhere on loan since(Barnsley,Notts Forest and now RovRum)


Adam 'Stepover kid' Hammill
The master of stepovers is our Adam, currntly on loan at RovRum from Town so he wont be allowed to play this weekend. despite obvious talents he seems to be slowly drifting further down the league ladders for one reason or another

Danny 'hat-trick at Watford got me a new contract' Ward
Big Town signing brought in to replace Anthony Pilkington, often a scapegoat to Town fans and anothr that didnt hit the heights expected of him. Initially loaned to RovRum in January before making the deal permanent about 3 days later for the princely sum of probably not 10% of what we paid for him


Wakeys Big Match prediction
A right old rip roaring battle between West and South Yorkshire with not much quality to show for it
2-2

That Watford prat needs the book throwing at him..... The red card has to be recinded.

The ref wants sacking too....what does he think he saw?! Just goes to show how clueless they are...sending a bloke off based on the reaction of a player. W-nkers

Red card should be rescinded and Forestieri should get a long ban for cheating, diving, unsporting behaviour and whatever else they can charge him with.

This may well be the catalyst to get cheating thrown out of our national game! Pathetic actions, the ref can not have seen clearly what happened, so he was not able to pass judgement. Obviously, the FA will step in, but it is now high time to stamp that ugly side of the game out forever.

I agree. Everyone I speak to hates the cheating and diving that goes on. We also have some players that go down far too easily and they should also be punished. Just hate to see it.

That second goal was nicely constructed.

Have you heard a Watford fan is apparently in a bad way after being attacked by some Wolves supporters?
