Five conclusions as Huddersfield Town horror show renders play-off talk laughable A four-goal defeat at The Valley โ€” which could easily have been worse โ€” underlined just how far off the required pace the Terriers are

In-depth analysis is hardly necessary - five conclusions is closer to a rant instead

Huddersfield Town player ratings from shockingly awful performance at Charlton The Terriers went a goal down inside a minute and by the hour it was 4-0 thanks to a series of shocking performances all over the field

Absolutely shockingly dire

Brackley Town

Brackley Town

It could be the play-offs again for Brackley Town. It's the last thing they want.

League table says it all behind Huddersfield Town's Michael Duff sacking Automatic promotion was the goal for the Terriers, but slipping to 7th gives them a big job to make it into the play-offs

And here is that reaction. We have our sympathies and the timing is surprising - but also not surprising at the same time. There was clearly a line in the sand

Five conclusions: Bad luck and poor finishing cost Huddersfield Town Wrexham stole a 1-0 victory at the John Smith's Stadium thanks to a goal that never should have stood, but the Terriers must also accept their share of the blame despite a positive performance

Huddersfield Town ratings as dominant showing ends in controversial defeat to Wrexham The Terriers put in an impressive performance but had to go away empty-handed from this six-pointer after conceding from an offside position

Not sure how much more offside you can get than standing on the goalline - absurd officiating. Town deserved at least the point but get nothing. Marks out of ten, anyway.

Five conclusions: Huddersfield Town laboured but victorious again Josh Koroma's late strike won the day in the end as we all watched the same game on repeat once again

Conclusions on that win over Shrewsbury here, including another standout performance from Lasse Sorensen, Josh Koroma the man of the moment again (but for how long?), and some props for Antony Evans

Five conclusions: Crisis averted for now as Huddersfield Town overhaul Barnsley The Terriers fought back in the second half to render Jon Russell's opener meaningless - but was it the game of two halves it appeared?

Five conclusions here on a crisis averted for now by #htafc's comeback victory over Barnsley - which for us was less a game of two halves than some might make out, and still leaves Town with some questions to answer

Good news: I've landed back in the UK no problem from my holiday this morning. Bad news: I've been laid up with some horrible respiratory illness that's made me feel dreadful since Monday night and it's still not budging. Arthur will be taking tomorrow's game as a result.
