WIN OR DIE

F.A.CUP THIRD ROUND REPLAY.
v READING
TUESDAY 19TH JANUARY - 2000HRS KICK OFF
BROADCASTING ON BBC RADIO LEEDS


I've found myself with ten minutes to spare, so heres to nothing special.

'Win or Die'
The words uttered by our ever increasingly popular Head Coach.

I have said it before and will say it again - the style of play and dedication to fitness have made a massive impact in how the turnaround has occurred down at the 'Pharm.

I am unsure as to who the referee and his assistants will be, but hopefully it will not be the same as the first game - is that possible ??

A big plus has to be the return to the squad of Dean Whitehead, whom i feel certain will be a name on the bench tonight, along with Kyle Dempsey.
I also foresee the return of the savage Lynch to the starting line up after being rested at the weekend.

However, i think the key player tonight will be....
'he swings to the left, he sways to the right, hes called Joe Lolley, he'll make you look shiiiiiiiite!'

Too far to make the trip darn sarffff on a Tuesday night, so will be glued to the radio and hopefully keeping adding bits on here at the same time.

Apologies for my lack of interaction on here recently, only had time to add bits and bobs.

Lots of people have been saying no point looking at the next round until we get past Reading, BUT if this isnt the best opportunity for Town to reach the fifth round of the FA Cup then i dont know what is!

Match result : Reading 0 Huddersfield Town 3

Hey Hydy, when did you join the agency? Three agents now, Darn, I and your goodself. 😉📞🔫

I'll reserve judgement until I see the highlights. Not the way to go after going two nil up. I wonder what Wagner makes of that. Was the defence poor? I know Hogg was sent off, but a team should not be capitulating with only one less player.

A cup run may have been distracting from the main objective. Got to put it behind and concentrate on getting as high up in the league as possible.

UTT!

5 Gutenburg press machines from me Bing !
(Now Yuz can do More JA ! )

(Mirf Style analysis !)
Town in effect had a 2 goal start,
there was only two thirds of the game remaining,
And we've taken a 5-0 battering in an HOUR .

Not feeling so good,
5th 'sloppy' day ongoing ? (positive = I'm a 'thin' chap now)

More when I come too...

What a load of bullsheite! I saw the incident with Hogg and it was not a sending off, just a yellow, as two other defenders were in situ, so not a clear cut scoring chance for Reading.

Now then, the FA have said Hogg will only get a one match ban, as they have reviewed the sending off. This taken from the Examiner. 'Hogg walked after a professional foul on Matej Vydra, but it was not judged as serious foul play by referee Oliver Langford so he has avoided a three-match suspension.'

If that is the case then the referee needs reviewing, that decision most definitely cost Town the victory. No excuse for the capitulation, but would it have happened if Hogg remained on the pitch?
