TBF I thought a couple of the comments were spot on, especially those about Duff blinking first and going defensive giving us a helping hand. Actually feel sorry for their fans - but not too much - I just know how gutted I’d feel if we conceded three in seven minutes to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

It has happened to us on at least two previous occasions, 3-0 up away from home with 15 minutes to go and lost both 4-3, Watford and Chelsea (never forget that cunt Clive Walker)

Clive 'Flasher' Walker.

Played over 1,000 games in his career. 750 league, scoring over 200 but best known for waving his cock at a bunch of fans.

PREMATCH

Quote

3-0 Bolton, after more exciting performances of late, this will be a proper on the beach performance.
Drury & Stead out - BOOOOooooooooooooooooooo etc

Quote

I predict a gallant defeat

Quote

A team that specializes in conceding late late goals (is it only 5 so far.. ?) versus a team that specialises in scoring late late goals (12 in stoppage time..including 2 against us) .

What could possibly go wrong ?

Quote

Think we can add Hardie to the list of very poor January window signings we've made over the last three or four years. I hope we aren't paying a high percentage of his wages. Looks a good player but another made of Twiglets.

Quote

My money is on Sam Dalby Anytime Scorer. My sons best mates not so little brother. At least I'll have a few quid to lighten the ribbing I'll get....!

 

DURING

Quote

It looks a poor attendance?

Quote

Back to usual shite. Fell asleep for the corner. Incredibly negative setup. Sebine not ready to lead the line in a game like this. Way off it. Shitting our pants against the mighty Bolton Wanderers 😂🙄

Quote

Unfortunately this could end up with 4 or 5 going in.

Quote

Charity FC in full swing

Quote

This is a soul destroying watch.

Quote

Bolton look like the team playing a ‘must win’ game, which is crazy considering they are pretty much home dry for a play off…..should be Town giving all but it’s the other way round

Quote

Bolton (with a play off place more or less guaranteed) 8 shots on goal after 22 minutes, Huddersfield Town (still with a mathematical chance of reaching the play-offs) 0 shots on goal after 22 minutes.

The mentality at our club is absolutely horrible.

Quote

Bolton are everything I want us to be…

Pacey overlapping fullbacks
Fast tricky wingers who can actually take a touch and dribble..
Big man in the middle for crosses
Midfielders waiting on the edge of the box for the cutback

Quote

The other thing, after the first quarter of the game. Nobody is beating Bolton in the play offs.

Quote

Look a good side Bolton..
Comfortable on the ball. Good passing. Movement up front..
Goal threat from crosses..
Everything we don’t have..
We’re getting bummed here..

Quote

How are we so inept at playing simple balls finding space etc.
Watching Bolton so far class above.

Quote

This is embarrassing. We look two divisions below them. Bet our team's getting paid more

Quote

Why didn't Kasumu just hit that? Oh yeah....he's a L2 standard player.

Quote

God man Kasumu is absolutely tragic on the ball. Sorry but he is simply not good enough. Great athlete terrible footballer

Quote

This ref is shite

Quote

Sorensen. The master of the shit cross.

Quote

We should be 3 down at half time.

Quote

They could score from every corner

Quote

Another let off for Town. Should be 2-0 or 3-0 down. Bolton have missed some very good chances.

That's probably the biggest positive for Town: we are only 1-0 down and still in the game.

Quote

Should be 3-0. Shame that wasnt the full time whistle tbh. Another dreadful half of football to go with so many others this season.

Quote

as others have said Bolton look levels above us. You could probably change a million things or none and get nothing out of this one.

Quote

Think I deserve thanks for backing Dalby to score. Otherwise we'd be 3 - 0 down with those two sitters he's missed...!!!  :D

Quote

Dion Charles isn’t my favourite player. He’s probably my least favourite player. It’s still criminal he isn’t on the pitch, if ever a game would suit a player it’s this one.

Quote

Bolton 14 shots only 3 on target...

We are lucky they are wasteful !

Final bloody insult will be if Johnny Kenny a butcher, a baker and candlestick maker that Celtic signed from Shamrock Rovers and who couldn’t score in the bloody SPFL banged one in against Town ! ☹️

Quote

LOOK WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PUT PRESSURE ON THE REFEREE!! FIRST TIME IVE SEEN US DO IT ALL SEASON

Quote

2-1 to Town.

How the fuck has that happened?
 

Quote

40 mins to hang on now boys !

Quote

If we don’t get another soon they’re 100% equalising if not more

Quote

Bloody hell 3-1!!

Quote

Refs determined to even this up.

Quote

Limited footballer scores important goal!!!!!! Get in!!!!

Quote

Still time for another last minute equaliser!

Quote

substantial stoppage time coming up....

Quote

Aside from the (correct) pen and sending off decisions this ref has been absolutely garbage.

Quote

Here we go again...

Quote

That's absolutely despicable goalkeeping.

Quote

How has he scored from there? Shit goalkeeping.

Quote

Surely we can’t lose a 2 goal lead to 10 Fooking men

Quote

90+11 equaliser all over it now.

Quote

Inevitable what will happen now

Quote

All Bolton have to do is ask and the ref gives it

Quote

Bloody hell loads of stoppage time coming.

Quote

Which team are playing against 10 here?

Quote

Ref quite right there. Kenny went down looking for a free kick and then got up when he didn't get one. Absolutely right we had to go off.

Quote

If Kenny wanted to get on with it why the fuck was he rolling around like he’d been shot?

Fanny

Quote

how is he not blowing?

Quote

You fucking wankers. Again!

Quote

That is just cruel.

Quote

Pathetic

Quote

Inexcusable

Quote

Never known anything like this

Quote

What an absolute shit show

Quote

Why was the ref still playing then? 100 minutes. Off his tits.

Quote

Utter fucking wankers. You know you had a team full of absolute losers when you can lose a two goal lead to ten men. Absolute joke. All of them can fuck off

Quote

Where the hell has an extra 2 minutes come from? Ref hadn't even looked at his watch.

Quote

Bollocks. That was some finish to give them credit. 100+ mins though? Ref?

Quote

Got to question the refs timekeeping. 10 mins into 8 mins time added on.

Quote

Would love to know how many points we’ve lost after bringing Charles on this season

Quote

UN FUCKING BELIEVABLE.

Quote

No question. He feels he got the penalty wrong and wanted to even it up. Now he has.

It’s cheating. It’s crooked. It’s out and out bent. You don’t find extra time because you think you fucked up. Especially when you didn’t.

Quote

How the fuck can you get another 3 minutes on 8 added?

Quote

I’m not a conspiracy theorist but fucking me are these refs being paid to make sure we don’t win?

Quote

I think we proved we're as good as them and they're favorites to win the play offs.

Quote

Ref was playing until they got a chance to level for sure though.

Quote

There were two head injuries in injury time which took atleast 90 seconds in total and we made a sub so that's another 30 seconds. Can't blame the time when you're playing ten men, we should have been running rings around them with basic passing and composure

Quote

Match fixing, been going on all season, shambles

Quote

Also really if we don't waste time subbing off Mumba, we likely don't hit the 100min mark and we win (and the ref was right to add additional time due to subs, injuries etc in the original 8mins)

Quote

Even the players believed the game was over when they ballooned the ball over in the 98-99th minute. As it should have been.
How the ref allowed it to continue was beyond belief.

HOWEVER, to concede 2 goals late on again, when opposition is down to 10 men. Legitimately couldn't write it. Poor.

Quote

blaming this on the referee adding another two minutes (which was the correct decision btw) is the biggest COPE of all time

Quote

Can’t even complain about the added time in added time. It was warranted.

Ref is always going to give more time when we were time wasting as best as we could

More embarrassed how we’ve played 10v11 for most of the second half and they’ve scored 2 goals and still looked better than us.
 

Quote

Not sure why people are moaning about the extra time on top of the 8mins. They add on time for subs, and for injuries. There was a sub, 2 bookings and at least 2 occasions where players were down. As much as it's gutting (again), the ref didn't do anything wrong in terms of the additional time (plus 8mins is merely a minimum anyway, not a maximum)

Quote

May is absolutely shite and has been no better than Dion Charles. A rancid footballer and a colossal waste of money for us. Get rid of both if anyone will take them, but pound for pound May has been one of the worst signings Huddersfield Town have ever made.
 

Quote

Hopefully Markham is developing an actual football strategy and finding players to fit it rather than the random slapdash throw money at it approach which has failed twice now.

Quote

Without reading the whole thread, two thoughts.

Alnwick is absolutely awful. The 2nd goal should never be scored from there.

You can't put up 8 minutes and then play almost 40% more added time.

Quote

Whilst the players and coaches could have done better, I feel like we've been royally fucked over again by the ref. There wasn't 8 minutes to be added on before he pulled another 3 out his arse and their centre back Toal was blatantly pulling Charles' shirt despite already being on a booking.

Quote

Whilst it's on us all these injury time goals but the authorities need to get to grips with this double figures injury time every match, it's totally OTT, is there bollocks 10, 14, 15 or 16 minutes to be credibly added on at the end, it's absolutely farcical.

Quote

I always find it strange that the ref can find the amount of additional time on extra time. 8 mins is 17% of 45 which if quite high in itself for injury time but 3 mins extra of 8 mins is 37.5%. Was there really that many stoppages in injury time compared to normal time?

Quote

Was there any context to Elvis at half time?

Great work I looked on there earlier the comment below that basically says you can not add on a higher % of extra injury time is brilliant. Using stats to prove you know fuck all.

There is the odd one saying Ted was right and why but then another 5 or 6 just moaning.

Meh. I think they are some next level odd balls and Yorkshireman to boot

Injury time in football matches is bollocks though. I have a degree of sympathy with them for that. Total arbitrary nonsense that goes for you some weeks and against you on others (there was a game we were chasing earlier in the season where the ref couldn't wait to blow up).

He's made more babies than goals in the last 2 years

Haha, fucking hell what a stat!

Their striker situation is hilarious. Spent millions on Charles and May for them to sit on the bench.

In January they took Hardie ahead of us, so we signed Kenny instead. And they sent Joe Taylor to Wigan where he's got 11 in 19.

Now they're left having to start a 19-year-old who wasn't getting a game for Curzon Ashton earlier in the season.

Yes I forget which game it was, but you're right.  He gave (say) 5 minutes injury time and during that time the oppo got a couple of free kicks or corners and throw ins, and for each one they strolled over, took absolutely ages taking them, and not 1 second was added beyond the 5.  Given it was a game a while ago that we obviously didn't win, I think it must have been Northampton or Mansfield.

If we ever concede a late equaliser or goal to lose, one thing I will never do is complain about too much time being added on.  Its NEVER enough.  Far too many stoppages, constantly from first minute to last, as far as I'm concerned there should be a limit of maybe 15 seconds to take a set piece and anything more should be treated as time to be added on.
