We have been better than Huddersfield for a good while now.

No...you've been in better form. You're not a better team. Not at all.

what a statement. Define "better"

I guarantee you, if I went through all the stats I could prove you massively wrong. In your opinion maybe, facts will wipe the floor with your statement.

We had one of the worst starts in our history and are still ahead of you

You've played a game more and lost one more.

Your start is comparable with our oct/Nov dodgy patch

It's not about how many you lose, it's about how many we win. This leeds team has lost more than our team last year but we turn 1 point into 3 when it looks like we are going to draw.

Our poor start is comparable yes, but since our manager and players settled we have been brilliant. Hence why I say we are a better team since September.

You're bang average and lucky, heavily reliant on set pieces. Like I've said before, last two league games, two shots on target, two goals.

Scored more, conceded less. And had less chances than you? What does that say to you? Considering we are probably right down near the bottom of chances created. We've just bought two new wingers as well....

Stats can be read many ways, depends on your agenda. We are less wasteful away from home I believe.

I wouldn't bother Hydy...he's obviously one of those ones that still believes they won the European Cup. He'll understand on Sunday.

They all will.

We've also won one more and have a much better GD. We don't concede many these days and rarely any at home

Do set pieces not count?

And we score plenty from open play too. Our goal difference is higher than yours for a reason.

We are both quite similar teams in quality which is why we are only 2 points apart but I just think we are better. Since our signings and manager settled we've been much better than you.

Because we've got a wizard at corners and free kicks we only score from set pieces!

Actually, last 2 league games 4 shots on target 4 goals. Get your facts right.

Pretty sure that's what he meant, 2 shots on target in each of the last 2 games.

OK fair enough. Should be qualified with..."per game" to avoid musunderstandings.

Don't matter how many shots we have as long as each 1 goes in. So looking like Udders may have to score 3 to win.

Can cut the tension with a knife in the build up for this game...imagine a Town v Leeds playoff final

In some ways, I think I preferred these games when we were both sh-t

Is the game a sell-out? I thought yesterday's would be but maybe a Thursday evening and televised kept some fans at home.

It will most likely "sell out" of tickets but there'll be quite a few empty seats because of the Sunday noon kick off. Be plenty of ST holders with family commitments like junior football and stuff not able to make it. Was the same for the Wendies match.

I get now why Cellino was so annoyed at Sky as these kick off changes are a pain in the backside for everyone, and the amount you're on tv is a nightmare, especially for those who travel a decent distance for home games.
