bring back a real pundit. Loved it when Rodney Marsh said he'd have his head shaved on the centre spot at Bradford if they stayed up. True to his word , he did !

Chris should have a poster made of that and hang it in the dressing room. Team talk done.

Why do people get upset when somebody like Crooks speaks the truth as it is and in this case he is spot on 100% correct in his views on our hopes and future in the Premier League.

Isn't he just saying what multiple posters on here have been saying for the last few weeks. or indeed throughout the summer.
And will no doubt be saying again next time we lose a few again on the spin. Which of course we will at some point.
EDIT - eg: The post above !!

Strange to see Garth get slated for what he said.
Most fans realise the team needs to land a striker - Garth is saying exactly that and that the Board need to make sure that they don't fail strengthen I January.
He is not anti Brighton. He is very Pro Brighton and CHs best mate and I guarantee you that over the course of the season you will see him down at the Amex or at other grounds cheering for Brighton to succeed

This. I bumped into him in the West for the QPR game last season and chatted to him briefly. He's actually a decent bloke, and clearly has a lot of time for this club. I think he's wrong here though, we'll be fine.

He is a waffling cartoon character who just loves the sound of his own voice, he really belongs on Talksport, used to be mildly amusing but is now a one trick pony with very little in the locker.

Huddersfield win their first PL game and the pundits are absolutely raving about them.
We win our first PL game and still get slagged off.
Also, under each selection in Garth's team of the week, he analyses that particular player and not use it as an opportunity to slag the team off.

Ahhh.
It was on NSC so naturally I believed it to be the truth....... [emoji4]

He's trying to do his old mate Chris a favour I reckon, manage expectation levels and get some more money out of Tony.
Viewing his punditry, however, is akin to having narcolepsy.

What he said is most obvious that even TB. PB. and CH know this even if you cannot accept it. I think that we will need 2 or 3 players in January unless there are rapid improvements. It will be interesting to see how the new right back pans out as that position is an obvious worry with Brunos age and fitness.

I do accept it BG. The squad needed that extra striker although CH will do what he does to get the best out of the remaining squad/players.
And i'm sure that TB will be active in January. Despite once saying he doesn't like to do business in Jan - our best signings/loans normally come in that window (Ulloa, Upson, Sidwell, Stephens, Kayal, Murray, Knockaert)
I've got no problem with his overall point - we will struggle this season.
However to say, "the reality is he is in the same league whether he likes it or not and he had better tell his owners the truth" is a bit rude. I think Hughton and the board are on the same page and know exactly what our situation is.

We still need that elusive striker and as I mentioned a lot will be expected of the new right back due to Brunos age and fitness and L R being an adequate cover but not good enough as regular.1st choice,
