    That's what the 'experts' insisted was going to happen. Yet this fearsome predator was substituted at half time.
    :D:D

    I've just read the Huddersfield predictions thread and of those that were brave enough to predict an outcome there's not too many that said Alfie would rip us a new one. Plenty that thought we would struggle though.

    Went down after 1st minute - surprised he carried on. Glad he went off as he usually scores against us

    He told Yorkshire Post taking him off was tactical.

    I was beginning to think we'd be up against Real Madrid & Cristiano Ronaldo in his pomp!

    Yep, I was one fearing the worst as well. I thought they would attack us from the off and take an early lead. Glad I was wrong, as I wanted to be wrong!

    I thought even 11 v 11 we were the better side.
    I was a little bit anxious going into the game,thinking I hope we dont get stuffed.
    Would have been happy with a point.
    Half time came never felt more confident we were going to win ,since Port Vale at home 7 0

    He's never scored at Oakwell. In fact in his 9 games against us, he's only scored in 2, albeit he got a brace in both of those.
