Highly rated Clark (the media words) has been linked to many jobs,i think Leicester was one of them (?) A near miss for promotion last season and now having broken the Nottingham Forest unbeaten league run i cant be long long before some Chairman from a different club will approach The Terriers board and ask to speak to Clark. Like Blackburn Rovers ?

Why is everyone harping on about Huddersfield (their record is tarnished by the fact that were woeful in the play-off final) when Charlton are currently cruising the division, after Chris Powell has totally rebuilt the team?

seem to recall Blackburn taking a League 1 manager once before and it all ending in tears. Don't think they will do it again just for that reason although I think there will be regular interest in Clark from higher placed clubs and rightly so.

Karl Robinson at MKplasticDons is another one who will surely move up the leagues.

Robinson is attracting interest no doubt,just how do they pay and survive on their gates ? Ince is chip paper if that is who you mean,Clark appears and sounds alot different.

He had the decency to give us a guard of honour last season, unlike a certain arsehole along the coast.

I think Powell will stay with Charlton come what may (he seems a Charlton Man ?) Robinson,good call.

I think that Poyet and Atkins are better managers.

Huddersfield have a very impressive undeafeted run of matches but they draw a heck of lot of them.

Actually apart from 15 minutes of the second half, town were by far the best side in the play off final and should have wrapped it up in the first half....I don't know where you got " woeful" from

Well have you not noticed that RRH puts a negative slant on pretty much everything.

He has had quite a bit of time to get Huddersfield up. They're almost becoming League 1's Cardiff.

They got 50 points in the 2nd half of last season & on current points average are heading for 97 this time (how many did the top two get last year)
88 points in the last 41 league games, hardly 'too many draws' in fact Sensational
Title decider Monday night Away to Charlton on telly

Interested in understanding the basis of that comment. What Managers (if any) are better than Poyet and why? If Poyet was at (say) West Ham would he still be a good Manager?

Just asking

You can't say they deserved promotion on their showing in the second half of the season. They evidently weren't good enough in the first half, so they didn't go up. Simple. The season is 46 games, not 23.

I am guessing, as no one knows for sure, that Gus would do a very good job at West Ham. He would have inherited a number of quality premiership players. The West Ham faithful would certainly like his style of football.

I was just going by this seasons table to date. They have played eighteen, won ten, drawn eight. They are winning just over half their games. They are a very good side. Just think they would be better off losing the odd one and going more out for wins.
