Risky move by Huddersfield.

Lee Anderson Grant (born 27 January 1983) is an English football coach and former professional footballer, who is manager of EFL League One club Huddersfield Town. No previous as a Manager, I would like to wish him good luck but as they are in our League I will not bother

Yeah, i saw this today and thought it was a gamble, but most people, both inside and outside our club thought Warne was the same gamble. Turned out to be our typical roller coaster ride and most of us enjoyed it. Most importantly, it brought lots of new/young supporters to the club.

It helped Warne being here, he knew the club the players.

I thought this seemed like a bit of a gamble too and it makes you wonder what the financial situation might be at Huddersfield.
Paul Warne would have seemed a more logical appointment when he was available much earlier in the process.

Warne spoke to both Huddersfield and Barnsley. He was actually offered the Barnsley job but didn't feel comfortable with the ownership situation and how much decision making power he would've had.

Mellow, seeing as the 24/25 season figures haven't been released yet, Huddersfield Town's nominal debt to its owners (Town FC LCC) in the 2023/24 season was 47.38 million. A significant portion of this debt, approximately 22.9 million, is attributed to the club's previous ownership and is interest-free, only becoming payable under certain conditions, including a Premier League promotion which never happened.

In other words they are deep in the mire.

We moan at Tony for not spending big but I wouldn't like him to leave behind a mess such as Town are in, bigger better players or not. They are still in the same league as us after all that spending.

Things not right at udders. It didn't take him long to say no to them.
