Squad

A falling-out at Huddersfield Town

Lasse Sørensen and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout

Radinio Balker frozen out at Huddersfield Town

This is not rotation. Radinio Balker has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Huddersfield Town is pretending otherwise.

Squad

Huddersfield Town count the cost of losing Marlie Neil

20 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad

Blas Díaz stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Blas Díaz and Huddersfield Town agree another 1 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Daniel Bachmann

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

The dugout

A promise honoured for Dion Charles

It is not much of a headline and it is the reason players believe the next promise. Huddersfield Town told Dion Charles something would happen and then it happened, which in this industry passes for remarkable.

The dugout

Ilias Bronkhorst is still paying for one afternoon at Huddersfield Town

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

Market

The Marcus McGuane talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Huddersfield Town know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Market

The shop window has Antony Evans in it

Huddersfield Town have let the market know Antony Evans can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

The dugout

Radinio Balker frozen out at Huddersfield Town

This is not rotation. Radinio Balker has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Huddersfield Town is pretending otherwise.

Squad

A row about effort at Huddersfield Town

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Sean Roughan was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match

Huddersfield Town find a way past Stevenage

Stevenage made Huddersfield Town work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad

Huddersfield Town count the cost of losing Marlie Neil

55 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Player ratings

Bali Mumba was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.10. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Ilias Bronkhorst and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout

Ryan Ledson gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

The dugout

Stephen Brown has his say

“We earned that. I asked them for a reaction and I got one, and now I want the same again on Saturday.” Stephen Brown on a 1‑0 afternoon that pleased him more than he was prepared to show.

Squad

Sean Roughan suspended

One booking too many, and Sean Roughan sits out. Huddersfield Town lose him for the sort of avoidable reason that makes a manager's week longer.
