Saints are safe - cannot see a 9 goal swing against Swansea even if they are playing Man City . Huddersfield need to get a point v Chelsea or Arsenal so expect a 9-0-1 formation!
I hope Hudds make it .. it great little club, great fans and stadium and only half an hour from Yorkie!
I still think Soton's celebrations were a bit premature, yes good for them they won a very important game. However, we all know it's not over until the Tom Jones sings. If Huddersfield get a point tonight and they have parked the bus today so far, that is for sure, then it is either Swansea or Southampton on the last day. Swansea v Stoke: Stoke are down and the players have been slated, they haven't said if the manager will be there still next season and they are in disarray. If Swansea are two up at half time you never know. Mind you, the Swans have lost their last four games. Soton v Citeh: Depends how much on the beach the City players are but they can dish out a 0-6 away as we found out. I know, a long shot but you never know, maybe I am just clutching at straws as I'd like to see Soton go down over the Swans. It is looking grim for them mind. At least we are SAFE!!!! ahahahhahahahahaha (for this season)
GOAL - Chelsea 0-1 Huddersfield Laurent Depoitre (50 mins) NOT A DRILL! THIS IS NOT A DRILL! My word what a big goal this could be. Huddersfield may need a sat nav to find the Chelsea penalty area but once they get there they score! It's a long ball over the top from Aaron Mooy, big bad Laurent Depoitre is in and once Willy Caballero comes charging out, the big man takes advantage of the bounce to slot in. Pile on on the sidelines. Yorkshire! Yorkshire!
Seems they heard you! HUDDERSFIELD ARE SAFE! Chelsea 1-1 Huddersfield What a result. Massive celebrations as Huddersfield secure their top-flight status. They have done it with draws at Manchester City and then at Chelsea. Hats off.
Looks like it will be Swansea who will not survive. They need a nine goal change to escape at the expense of the Saints.
We handed them the 5 points that’s kept them up. Home was the just THE worst performance, away was a 0-0 all the way.
But to give them credit, I sit in the Family Stand next to the away fans and only missed one game at home (Liverpool) and Huddersfield’s fans were the best all season.
Half time on Sunday. Swansea winning 2-0 and Southampton losing 3-0. What does Mark Hughes decide to do?
I think they will be pretty defensive from the off tbh - or certainly not gung-ho in attack. Clearly Sky don't think Swansea are going to do anything to save themselves as they've got the Chelsea and Liverpool games live on Sunday.
Great performance from Huddersfield - fantastic save by the goalie too. Swansea are all but down. Given goals scored they need a 10 goal turnaround. Could happen - Hull lost 7-1 at home to Spurs last year last game and City are capable of that. On their day Swansea could beat Stoke 4-0. I am not putting money on it though.
I sit at the other end of the UGT, also missed the Liverpoo game, also went up to Huddersfield last month.... and absolutely agree with you. Look forward to making another trip up there if the fixture list falls kindly.
Well Swansea will need to win by 3 or 4 and City win by 5 or 6 as long as it adds up to 9 most of the bookies are offering 100/1
What I have read is that they are looking for a young, hungry manager as that is where their success has been - is it a coincidence that Leon Brittain has retired from playing?
