Just noticed even this early - Huddersfield is starting to fill with Albion milling around the town. Feels more like a cup final today.

How many are we expected to bring up today?

Th etown fans i work with aren't expecting their lot to do much today so three points coming up in think.

I wouldn't have let that put me off - this is the biggest game of the season so far. We will see who the true fans are today.

Disagree, biggest game of the season was Oldham.

Disagree too, biggest game was the last one under Adams...the one where the board finally realised their mistake and ushered him towards the door, allowing us to bring in a man who seems to have motivated the team to a position where our fate is in our hands...that looked very unlikely at the turn of the year.

Couldn't disagree more. Biggest game was Colchester, if we hadn't taken three points there we would be down.

As for "we will see who the true fans are today", what a load of rubbish. I can't make it today, which I am gutted about. You say you wouldn't let the train fair put you off, but I would imagine there are plenty of people who simply couldn't afford to travel today.

Not remotely fair. Some people work at weekends :wave: and couldn't get it off. Some people genuinely can't afford it- if you've got no cash and don't have a credit card, how else do you get there.

"True fans" are arguably the ones who trek to crappy midweek away games in December, when there's nothing to play for. The ones who fork out for season tickets year after year. The ones who don't just turn up for the important or glamorous games, or the ones at shiny new stadiums or with cheap tickets.

I am gutted that I can't go today, but don't accuse me of being a part time fan because of it.

I don't think if you don't go it means you aren't a true fan... Not everyone can afford 100 quid for a train fair you know.
