No, Dodgson's brilliant cross with pretty much his only touch. Far too good for our "attack"!!!

Sixth tier Kidderminster Harriers - the lowest ranked side left in the FA Cup - beat Reading of the Championship and are in the hat for the fourth round.

They Boreham Wood and Cambridge will be the headline makers, and that's what the cups about.

It was a great ball in and it was good to see an attacking player for us actually able to use their left foot.

One of the coaching staff holding a ring binder with the word DEFENDING on it.
Guess it must have been a prompt card.

Without any doubt whatsoever - it was the tribute to Jimmy Robson. (It was all downhill after that).
How can anyone think any different?

Avoiding Turf Moor and watching Lancashire Girls at Poolfoot Farm in the ESFA Champions Cup Quarter-Finals:
U14 Girls: Lancashire 5 Gloucestershire 0
U16 Girls: Lancashire 7 Gloucestershire 1
At least with the Lancashire Girls you see some goals !!

Maybe they left those folders at Barnfield? Could explain the performance :lol:

Still, doesn’t explain how they didn’t get the defending right :lol: :lol:

Immaculately observed "minute of silence" for Jimmy Robson.

Respect to Huddersfield fans for that

Would be a very good replacement for Dwight. We should be bidding for players like this!

He’s very Connor Gallagher, before Connor Gallagher got good. Lots of potential.

Jay Rods 100th goal. He should have taken his boot off and raised it to all four stands like a cricketer would do with his bat. Well done Jay.
