Huddersfield

Fair play

"Huddersfield Town chairman Dean Hoyle has honoured his pledge to enable thousands of fans to watch the club's Premier League home games for little more than £5 next season.

Terriers owner Hoyle promised in 2010 that all fans who had held season cards throughout his time as chairman would pay £100 for their season card if the club reached the Premier League.

David Wagner steered Huddersfield back to the top flightfor the first time in 45 years following a penalty shoot-out win in last month's Championship play-off final.

"Over 4,000 Town fans who have had season cards for the entirety of Dean Hoyle's tenure as chairman will receive mail from the club this week," Town said on their official website."

 

Fair play to him, nice gesture to loyal fans.

 

The beauty of being "locally" owned......

 

A partially Trust owned community Club must mean something else to our lot

 

I'm delighted to see Huddersfield Town gain a spot at the top table.
Back in the 1920's they were 'the team'.
Many people dismiss anything pre Premier League as an irrelevance, but Huddersfield dominated the old First Division, viz,

1923 - 3rd place.
1924 - Champions.
1925 - Champions.
1926 - Champions.
1927 - 2nd place.
1928 - 2nd place.

That's impressive by anyone's standards, and even though they never managed to regain those dizzy heights, you can't take it away from them.
They were the Man Utd of their day.

I hope they stick around for a long time, but not at The Swans' expense, of course.

 

It is an away game next season I will want to go to. Will be a new ground for me.

 

Go get season tickets !!

 

Been a bit quiet roof. Nope not for me this year. I will watch from afar and enjoy some away trips, while watching some Welsh league football. Will be testing my coaching skills this year.

 

I wish I could slap you

 

If I ever get to Canada, I will make sure I look you up, you can slap me and then buy me a pint.

 

Wasn't going to post here anymore BUT ... being the superstitious type ( That I know you can attest to ) I've been Swansea's " Good Luck Charm " since I started being a Swansea fan in League 1 . It's all been up hill since and I don't want the responability of being the reason Swansea gets relegated . I'll keep my posts short and sweet and spaced for good luck ...Cheers

 

All premiership and championship clubs can afford to let their fans in for a quid let alone £5 if they were not so greedy....

 

No time for " Principle " imo in regards to buying season tickets , this is Premier League football .... United , Liverpool , Arsenal ( ok , not so much Arsenal Lol ) Man City , Tottenham .....these are must see games at Liberty ..... while it lasts .
