| After another excellent win against Salford, we have another winnable game, against our long time bogey side, Huddersfield.
After winning 3 from their last 4, punctuated by a mullering by Saints, they will come to BV in confident mood and it will be another tricky fixture.
I'm sure that Chester and the boys will be keen to get one back against Huddersfield and like the Salford game, I'm hoping we can secure the 2 points.
Broughy will be fired up to get one over his old employers and show that he is way better than his replacement but, he's sure to come in for some "special treatment" from his ex team mates and he'll need to keep his red mist under control.
Should be another great game and a victory would cement our spot among the top 4 and push Shudds back down the table
Come on Trin !

| Broughy has kept his cool and concentrated superbly since those early season sin binnings, I've been very impressed with his control. The guy is an assett there is no doubt about that, long may it continue.

I could never understand how they were called Hudd - Shef, after all Sheffield were to be promoted and Huddersfield relegated.
It should have been Shef -field

Bren, you cant just take him to games that we're going to win or he will never know what it's like to be a Trinity fan.
Mind you, if getting him there means a win, he should be travelling on the team bus

| The bookies currently have this as a tight game, many sites going for Trinity by 4 or 6.
I don't think this will be easy, but I'm sure Broughy will want to put on a good show!

| Ten years or so ago it didn't matter how good our form was Hubbs would inevitably make us look like chumps time after time. I think its fair to say that whatever drove that Hudds outfit to muller us with a passion and determination we could rarely match has probably gone now with a new generation of players at both clubs. That particular hoodoo has thankfully gone so this is a more normal game to predict.
This being the case I think Hudds are in a false position - they are not as good as the pre-season pundits made out but they have some handy players to say the least. They also look to be finding a bit of form. So with that in mind we will need our 'A' Game for this one or else we'll get a nasty slap and be bereft of reaching double figures in the League.
Hope we win.

Certainly, any side that has aspirations of making the play offs has to win their home games against mid - low table opposition.
I still believe that the London game will bite us on the booty, although we do have another two games against them but, these ARE "must win" games.
I fancy us to win by 8/10 points but, we all know that this is a banana skin and we have to avoid slipping up.

Tbf a number of clubs have now had their bums bitten by London so bad as it was it could have been worse - we were set up for that game as we are against every promoted team, we were not meant to win and we obliged for once.

| I hate games against this false club. For some reason we always save our worst display of the season against this lot. So lets hope we are well up for it and they get their cowbell shoved right up their harris.

Set up or not, this Trinity side is plenty good enough to beat London and something was adrift, either in our preparation of application or both and IF we are serious about being a top 5 side, that isn't actually good enough.
I know that these things can be in the mind but, we have to be more professional and dominate any lesser sides.
All sides slip up at some point and Trinity have very often been the side to beat some of the so called "bigger clubs" but, we cant afford to "sacrifice" points against the likes of London (or Huddersfield) if we want to e challenging at the end of the season.
In the past, the likes of Wigan , Leeds and Saints have been able to field weakened sides or throw some of their juniors in and not worry if they get beaten in the odd game, knowing thet in the long term, they will still qualify for the play offs etc but, at this point in time, Trinity certainly cant "go easy" on anyone. We will need every possible point to make the play offs and hopefully, we will be able to start and accrue some big game experience, which will be vital if we want to progress to the next level.
We need to approach these games as though we are playing St Helens, rather than Huddersfield.

That cowbell does my head in, can't decide which is worse, that or the drum and trumpet corps at Headingley.

He's been coming to games since he was about 6, so he knows the pain; now he's away at Uni, he only gets to a few, and only if I'm paying - but the ones he's made this year, we've won - so I'm happy to have him along!
I shall experience a form of Proustian rush at some point during the game - two of his schoolfriends and former junior teammates now play for Shudds and are the size of small houses, which just makes me feel very very old indeed.

| I just like to ask DC/MC if we ever looked at playing this fixture on Saturday evening instead of Friday or did you have no say whatever,Just think Saturdays have so much potential with most people working 5 1/2 days of the week and certainly after the Wendyball season has finished would it be worth looking at.

| Without having to trawl through pages of posts why are our next two home games being played on Friday evenings? We're not on SKY so why is it necassery (sp) to play on a Friday?

Maybe its cheaper I don't know. Or maybe its easier to sell corporate? I'm Sunday all the way but looking at the crowd figure it offers no obvious increase in attendances.
