I hope they both get promoted as both are good grounds to visit.

Huddersfield were the only team to take 6 points from us.

As others on here have said, this so called run was a nonsense after their play-off final defeat to Peterborough. Had they gone on to beat Arsenal's record...well, that would have been plain wrong. Fair play to them though for their consistency. They should be there or thereabouts come May.

It's not the Peterborough thing that winds me up, it's the fact that the Forest "record" that they supposedly beat was NOT a record. The Forest run was achieved in the top flight, whatever it happened to be called at the time, and Arsenal beat that a few seasons ago by going 49 games unbeaten.
Beat 49 games, and you have the record.

Huddersfield are draw merchants. 43 games unbeaten, but never in the top 2 in the division? I've never been overly impressed by Huddersfield's football. Very well set up and they have players who can cause damage, but they're nothing special I don't think. The money that has been invested into that team means they should at the very least be in the top 2.

This! Well said. Arsenal have the real record. Hudds can have the fake one if they want but everyone in the world of football knows it's a load of crap. Also Peterborough smashed them!

SkySports re-wrote football history into pre 1992 and post 1992 to suit their agenda. That's the way we live now, in a world where Liverpool have never won the title, and Les Ferdinand is one of the greatest strikers of all time by virtue of his Premier League goals record (whereas Dixie Dean or Jimmy Greaves or Brian Clough, with far superior records, are written out because their goals were scored before the advent of the PL).
Which makes it all the more odd that anyone would want to claim Huddersfield had beaten a record. If you're going to claim it, you'd need a bloody big plaque to inscribe "HTAFC: Longest Unbeaten Run Of Any Team In The Football League Between 1888 and 1992 but Not After 1992 Because Someone Else Went Unbeaten Longer Once They Changed The Name".
