[fredfertang]

No, having been at all three of our play off final defeats in the past I decided to listen to those who accused me of being an albatross and stayed away

 

[Uppercut]

Fun game so far but both sides look waaay off PL standard.

 

[Uppercut]

Alright since I said that it's just been terrible.

 

[fredfertang]

There haven't been many occasions when I've missed Hal Robson Can't Do, but this is one of them

 

[vic_orthdox]

Don't need this.

 

[Spikey]

i dont know how I'm still awake. that half sucked

Thing is if a team gets promoted nowadays, they can really afird to spend at least 60 million, it's how you spend it, Stam will have the contacts one would have though, bit who knows. Both these teams need to do that if they go up though, but if you're in the Prem anything can happen.

Hull stayed up last year, and I wouldn't have given them a prayer.

Hull went down. Plus their squad probably got even worse over the summer.

Agree with your point though. It's just that these two would be starting from an even lower point than usual.

 

[fredfertang]

What I really don't understand is why our new Chinese owners failed the fit and proper person test to take over Hull yet they are fit and proper people to run Reading

 

[vic_orthdox]

Fun fun fun

 

[GIMH]

I get nervous watching pens as a neutral

Yeah sorry, mixed them up with Burnley all Northern teams lookalike to me :

 

[Spikey]

ugh

 

[Spikey]

just got reminded of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f3tWqZ0pNC8 for some reason...

 

[fredfertang]

**** that

 

[Spikey]

i fear Vic's hangover won't be cured by the time of the wedding

 

[vic_orthdox]

Commiserations fred. Bloody hell.

 

[grecian]

Well done Vic and Jean-Luc Unlucky Fertang, at least you know you aren't a jinx now.

Leading in a pen shoot-out when being ahead has to be the worst )although it does seem to be something that happens a lot now, maybe the pressure going off the ones losing and going on the ones winning0, except for maybe losing it when you have a kick to win, bloody Steve Flack.

 

[BoyBrumby]

Ha, wow. Terriers did it the hard way, eh? Imagine the Geelong branch of the Huddersfield supporters club will be partying into the early hours.

Commiserations to the fertang clan. Penalty losses are just numbing.

 

[Lillian Thomson]

I like the Sky bloke reeling off the teams who Huddersfield will be playing next season and mentioned 5 of the top 6 plus Everton but left out Arsenal.
