Another team that was pretty horrible in their second season up was Sheffield United. They were fighting for Europe and they next thing you know they are relegated with 23 points. Interest to see how they do this year…
23 points was more than the previous 3 last place teams at the time so wasn’t as bad as it looked at Xmas. As a blade hoping we won’t have a repeat of that 20/21 season
@@christopheralexander6833 Ok yes but 2 of those wins came at the end of the season with 3 games to go with nothing to play for. It was really more like 17 points they amassed, much like Huddersfield Town

Good to see this about my beloved club. Well researched and very accurate. It was a great time to be a Town fan, sadly as quickly as it happened it went horribly wrong and we've still not properly recovered from that disastrous second season. There's been some big recent changes at the club and I pray we once again can grace the premier league.
It's like Derby, they never really recovered from that infamous season and even lost two playoff finals depsite getting all the shots on target against QPR while they had just the one that they scored from. Now they are League 1. It's like the footballing Gods are punishing them and your team for "embarrassing" a worldwide brand, but with you though, your promotion and survival were and still are totally unexpected achievements and part of Premier League history in a positive way.
The fact that they even survived for a second season was an achievement in its own right. Especially since their last three games were at Man City, Chelsea, and Arsenal, and they managed to draw two of them to earn safety.
We took points from the previous 4 Premier League Champions,we inflicted Man Utds first defeat of that season,we drew 1-1 with Leicester and then needing 2 point to stay up,we drew 0-0 at the Etihad the day City were crowned Champions and then drew 1-1 at Chelsea who had been last seasons champions.
Their championship season they came up was crazy, the only team in English football to win promotion with negative goal difference. They won 25 games, 22 of which by a 1 goal margin. Crazy that their first premier league win 3-0 vs Palace was a bigger win than 45 of their matches in the previous season. Also they won promotion from League One and League Two via the play-offs and won both on penalties, with their league one penalty shootout vs Sheff Utd going all the way to the goalkeepers who decided their fate. Always had a soft spot for them, sad to see them collapse, hopefully they'll be back one day.
Wolves were absolutely exceptional when they came up, easily one of the best promoted sides ever seen in the premier league. You could make a case for the best.
@@gatsbygoodwood2575Brighton have been selling their best players since they got promoted and have improved nearly every season. Not saying anyone is too good to go down, it could happen to Brighton, but it would be a shock.
@Vizeh very proud of that 1st PL season, got some good results and were relatively comfortable for quite a chunk of that season (just towards the end the PL grind nearly caught us!). Just wish we hadn't shat the bed in the transfer market the summer after, not that I think we wouldn't have still been in a relegation battle again but at least we could have made the fall back to the Champ more comfortable!
I find it funny how the top half of that year was nearly the same except that Wolves and West Ham swapped places in the table and Everton barely survived instead of Brighton
As an Aussie, always had a soft spot for Huddersfield as Mooy was playing quite well for them. A shame that they failed in the transfer market trying to bring in goals - just goes to show that even a team living the fairytale of promotion to the PL, how important it is to nail your transfer business. The margins between successfully staying up and being relegated (and potentially feeling the repercussions of bad signings for seasons to come) are so severe. Doesn't help that for a lot of these 'surprise' promoted sides, they probably don't have owners or scouting departments with the resources or prestige to attract players - making it even harder to sign proven talent if they have options elsewhere. Would love to see them back in the PL one day
Fellow Aussie living in the US, here. Mooy will truly be missed. He did a lot for the socceroos and I wish he would’ve done better at Brighton when Matty Ryan was in goal for them.
I would love to see a video about one team from the polish Ekstraklasa from the 17/18 season, 99% of you all don't know Sandecja Nowy Sacz but they managed to go 22 games without a win, it's a pretty similar story to huddersfield but they actually relegated to the 3rd tier this season, it would mean a lot to me if you did a vid about them
As a Forest fan, I have nothing but respect for Huddersfield, they've had some unbelievable highs and some unbelievable lows and I sincerely wish them the best
The plight of Huddersfield and others trying to establish themselves in the Premier League makes Wigan surviving there for eight seasons with one of the smallest budgets all the more remarkable. Even the year they were eventually relegated they finished on 36 points - more than enough to survive ordinarily - and won the FA Cup.
I am a legitimate Huddersfield Town fan, and that relegation really hurt. The Championship has been such a yo-yo, but seriously how do you finish third one season and have a terrible one next? But all I'm saying is we will return one day!
Great Video as always Vizeh. Take nothing away, it was a great achievement for them to stay up in their first season, but whilst they got the goals when it mattered against teams around them, they were also blessed with the fact Southampton, Swansea, Stoke & West Brom were all in complete turmoil that season, all changing managers so was almost like they were blessed that there were 4 worse teams having their own shitshows that year, and as we all know, that can't be bet on 2 years in a row. Whilst there was a bit of that anyway in the teams around them in the second season, it wasn't as bad as the ones from 17/18. We saw them lose wagner in january and just seem down and out for the rest of the season after and the others were lucky to not finish bottom because Huddersfield were THAT kind of worse team in 18/19, similar to that that kept them up the previous year.
2:53 In the 16-17 season, 22 out of their 25 victories were by one goal, including all 10 on the road. Defeats were sometimes heavy; Fulham outscored them 9-1.
It will always bother me how we could’ve really built on that first season in the prem but poor recruitment absolutely destroyed us. 2018 summer we were linked with Adama Traore, Andre Silva, Tammy Abraham, Ante Rebic, Xherdan Shaqiri and even James Maddison the january before… and ended up with Diakhaby, Pritchard, Sobhi, Mbenza etc 18/19 was hard to watch as a fan but we were unlucky with refereeing decisions and injuries (especially Mooy). We still probably didn’t have enough to stay up anyway though Also, I love how well run Brighton are but it does hurt a bit considering we were promoted with them. What could’ve been with a different DoF/or if we landed those targets!
yes, I remember how we nearly got Maddison and I think Traore agreed to sign but changed his mind,... hope we can turn it around after we were just an own goal away from a shootout to the PL year before last
Aaron Mooy, Celtic icon. So sad he had to retire at 32, in the middle of his second prime essentially, because of a recurring back injury. He was a key starter in our midfield for a couple months and I don’t think we’d’ve won the domestic treble without him.
As a town fan we had the worst transfer window in the clubs history before the 18/19 season. We were nowhere near ready for the PL in all aspects so it bound to end disastrously. Paying for those shambolic players has hurt us until recent seasons, even now we’re still shit.
I may be biased here being an Argyle fan but I really think a video looking at the rise of Plymouth Argyle would be good from going into administration and almost dropping out the football league in 2011/12 and still being in league two in 2018 to winning league one last season against all odds and building towards becoming a sustainable championship club with good signings this summer. This has all been done with little investment and a small budget compared to the teams around us! Love your content man keep it up!
The fact we somehow drew to them in the second to last game made me question how why I support United. Ngl that season was horrific and loving the videos
Hudds looked decent in their first season, and regularly dominated games. They lacked the fire power to finish above mid table, however, and poor signings saw them fall apart in their second prem season. I wouldn't put them in the top ten of worst prem teams even in this second season, though.
As a town fan we were just happy to be there but the board mad some were shocking decisions, recruitment was poor , managerial decison was a howler but that first season was something special
As someone who was born and raised in Huddersfield, I never supported the club (Newcastle United Is My Club). I was still so happy to see my local club get into prem. The town was so alive for two years and was a quite cool time 😂
Concerning Ramadan I saw an interview he had in Arabic, he said event the day he arrived with the terriers he was told he woudn't be having too much game time.
Tbf very non-bias take on it. Not shitting on the terriers calling them forgettable, I’m glad u gave us the credit of how we stayed up and had something about us for a season.
In 2018-19, Huddersfield only scored 3 goals in a single game one time... They lost that game. The defense and spirit just collapsed compared to the year before
One thing I realized is, if they're good at Rugby League, they're average at Soccer. Hull, Leeds, Huddersfield, Bradford's form seems to have slipped and does St. Helens even have a Soccer team? XD
Painful season for us, granted teams like us will probably never establish themselves in the premier league but we went down with a whimper. Things looked up in November 2018 with wins over Fulham and wolves but that was as good as it got. I didn’t see us win during our 2 years in the premier league but I never thought I’d see us there in my life so I’ll take that. It was a 45 year wait and no matter what happens we got there.
in fairness you's did win the league title 3 times in a row, granted it was the 1920's, but if a team was established once no reasn why they can't become established again.
Depends what you mean by establish. I’d consider 5 seasons as establishing yourself. Smaller clubs than us have done it and we did it ourselves albeit not since the 1950s.
Outside the modern top 6 anyone can go down in most seasons. I’d probably exempt Newcastle or to an extent Brighton from that these days. West Ham will be comfortable this season.
Nahhh, Huddersfield aren't forgotten, they were class against Man UTD in the 17/18 season. Kinda cheared them on throughout the season, David Wagner was cool in press conferences
I'd like to see one on Birmingham. These last 10+ years since we were last in the Premier League have been hard for us and hopefully things look to be on the up with the takeover
Coventry. Everyone talks about Luton when they were in League Two. But also with them was Coventry. Coventry have had an incredible rise in the last 5 years. Plus they just lost the play off final to Luton. This would make a perfect video...
However Luton came from even lower, not long before both clubs were in League Two Luton were in the Conference or the National League as it's now called
@@matthewoleary02 Yeah Luton have came from a deeper position league wise but the thing about Coventry though is they were homeless and they played at Northampton's ground and Birmingham's ground. And still til this day they don't own the ground that was built for them. But if we're talking league and relegation wise then Luton were in a much tuffer position.
@Icaptainmole While Luton were very nearly liquidated meaning there quite literally wouldn't have been a Luton Town. Both clubs have had a great rise to get to where they are but Luton definitely win that competition
@@matthewoleary02 Yeah especially that the club were stuck in the national league for a while. Also I like the Cambridge badge you have. I have a soft spot for Cambridge. Good luck today against Bristol Rovers. U's 2-0.
@Icaptainmole Yep, they weren't quite stuck there as long as us, we had 9 years of Conference football but they were there for a long time. The fact that they've now reached the Premier League should give us all hope especially as we were promoted with them back to the football league in 2014, I would love Cambridge to reach the same heights one day but I doubt it will ever happen. Thanks mate we've had a decent start to the season. I'm going to the Bristol Rovers game today so hopefully a good one!
This makes me remember Sampdoria 2011-2012, the Year before we finished 4th, so champions league playoff, we lost the playoffs to werder in August and in may 2012 we were relegated
Can you imagine nearly going down into league one, to only 1.5 seasons later being in top spot in the best league in the world during the first few games, then heroically staying up, to then having the worst prem season of all time, to then newrly going down, to then being cheated out of going back up due to a corrupt ref, to then newrly going down. It would be nice to just finish 15th this season to be honest...
They got promoted against all odds via the playoffs on a very limited budget and managed to stay up in their first season so you gotta say fairplay to them for that, a lot of teams have spent way more money than they did in the past and did a lot worse! Am not a Huddersfield fan either but credit where credit's due 🙂
Predominantly Tier 3 team!!?? In over 110 years of existence, Town have only had 22 seasons in Tier 3, we’ve had loads more in BOTH the top 2 tiers!! And at the start of the 16/17 season, loads of Town fans thought they had a chance of going up, maybe they thought it was too much to ask, but they did think, and I think a lot thought that we’d stay up the following season (definitely not the one after, we knew it wouldn’t last…) Also, Wagner was Borussia Dortmund II coach before he managed Town too…
It amazes me in this day and age with information so readily available, people get things so wrong. Town hadn’t been below the top 2 divisions in our first 63 years. Even since then it’s now 28 seasons below the 2nd tier and 23 in the top 2 tiers.
as a huge town fan, this season was inevitable after our crazy escape the year before. in the end, hopefully we can get back to the pl one day, but either way, up the town.
You might not want to, but could you do a video on the downfall of reading fc, from championship points record to points deductions, financial problems such as not paying taxes and struggling to register players in league one.
Fun Fact: David Wagner is also one of the reason of Schalke 04's enormous downfall. After the club was hit by a serious financial crisis relating to Covid, the club had a winless streak in the entire second half of 2019/20, but still managed to avoid the relegation, largely due to the numerous draws. However, things got even worse during the first three games of the Bundesliga 2020/21, where they got embarrassed 0-8 by Bayern Munich, 0-4 by Leipzig, and 1-3 by Werder Bremen. He was sacked after this, and Schalke didn't return their good form again with 3 wins, 7 draws, and 24 losses, and had 4 managerial changes in just one season.
@@messi9991 Actually he is not responsible, but the club itself that had a big issues with management. Also, the crisis initially started a long time before Covid. The club achieved lowest notes in European competitions, losing 0-7 to Manchester City. Domenico Tedesco (currently the Belgium coach) was sacked afterwards, and the club was unable to maintain consistencies in Bundesliga, finishing outside Europe twice in a row.
As a long-time fan of town, it's a fair video. Another reason that wasn't in the video that the board had a lot of the say in the transfer market as well. Now with a new owner only time will tell how things will go now. Keep up the good work 👏 UTT
This was such a depressing season. We had so many what-if moments, so many small moments in games that didn't go out way, incorrect reds, missed penalties, 1 goal losses... I'm still broken by it
You should probably look up which team Wagner managed before joining Huddersfield. Just makes it all the more of an odd choice that they would appoint yet another Borussia Dortmund U23 (not a B team) coach after him.
i remember Huddersfield Town being in Division 1 in the first sticker album i ever owned . Burnley were there too. i remember being confused when learning how Stoke City & Sunderland or Sheffield Utd also wore the same strip as southampton The cover featured Jimmy Greaves being tackled by George Graham & all the Huddersfield players had short back & sides & big ears. Probably. George Best was our God whereas our old man considered Terry Paine to be the best . 😁👍
Honestly, I like to think my football knowledge is pretty good. In particular my Premier League knowledge. That Huddersfield team from those 2 seasons in the Premier League is the most forgettable team in Premier League history. Only know a handful of players from it. 10 at most. Smashed it with this video bro! As per usual.
Their relegation/subsequent poor performances didn't shock the Premier League, though. Huddersfield went from a team finishing 19th during the 15/16 season to a team getting promoted via the play-offs a year later. It was a miracle that they survived two seasons in the Premier League.
As a Huddersfield fan I have to say Wagner was so special. Even before the start of our promotion season there was a feeling of something special around the club. Hopefully with us being relegated this season we can have a fresh new start and go again and try and bounce straight back up but I’m not that confident to be honest
I’m surprised there aren’t more clubs who get promoted and say f*** it we’ll just stick with a Championship budget and bank the cash for the season after.
Yep as a Huddersfield fan we were so bad we had 2 seasons in the prem where as so many teams only had 1, we also finished on 16 points where as Derrby finished on 11 and Sunderland 15 so did those teams shock the premier league more?
That Huddersfield side were woeful, but I'd cast a vote for the Villa side that got relegated in 2016. Horrendous. Also a shout for 2006 (i think) Sunderland. Awful team who resorted to cheap shots and the only thing they accomplished was sending Alan Shearer into retirement
Shearer was gone by the end of the season anyway and for his last kick of the ball being top bins against the mackems I think he won that particular battle 😂 but could not agree more on villa they we're woeful
@@Vizeh for a start I wouldn't spend millions on a player like diakhaby. Our top scorer ended up costing us £1 million from league 1 so that alone shows you don't have to spend big to get good players.
Serious lack of research here. A lot of us expected us to stay up in the first season and we did. The 2nd season, although I agree we were the worst side in the division we weren’t actually that bad and dominated matches against teams such as Liverpool and Spurs far more than we did in the first season. Also we’re does this myth come from in the modern age that we were “mainly a 3rd tier club” or whatever your word were “prior to getting into the Premier lge”. That’s just not true. In our 115 year history (minus the war years) we have had 22 seasons in the 3rd tier and just 6 in the 4th tier. In contrast we have spent 32 seasons in the top flight and more than 40 in the 2nd tier.
I miss the glory days...preston away, burgers at 1.50, two generations...starbuck, oregan, onura, baldry, boovair, trevitt, charlton, barnett, jepson, andy barn door, cowan, chocco jacko, stewart

I remembered Huddersfield having an awful season that year, but I didn't remember it being that awful for them.
I just remember when Huddersfield was playing at West Ham away they were up 3-1 chanting “we want four”, only for West Ham to win 4-3
Was there in that away end😂 thanks for remind me😢
As a town fan we were just happy to be there but the board mad some were shocking decisions, recruitment was poor , managerial decison was a howler but that first season was something special
Exactly some cracking memories too
I think the full saying is actually “hard work beats talent if talent doesn’t work hard”
As someone who was born and raised in Huddersfield, I never supported the club (Newcastle United Is My Club). I was still so happy to see my local club get into prem. The town was so alive for two years and was a quite cool time 😂
As a Terrier, beating Man Utd in our 1st PL season was a fever dream
you only won because you were at home, if it was at old trafford you would have gotten slapped up
Concerning Ramadan I saw an interview he had in Arabic, he said event the day he arrived with the terriers he was told he woudn't be having too much game time.
Tbf very non-bias take on it. Not shitting on the terriers calling them forgettable, I’m glad u gave us the credit of how we stayed up and had something about us for a season.
In 2018-19, Huddersfield only scored 3 goals in a single game one time... They lost that game. The defense and spirit just collapsed compared to the year before
One thing I realized is, if they're good at Rugby League, they're average at Soccer. Hull, Leeds, Huddersfield, Bradford's form seems to have slipped and does St. Helens even have a Soccer team? XD
Painful season for us, granted teams like us will probably never establish themselves in the premier league but we went down with a whimper. Things looked up in November 2018 with wins over Fulham and wolves but that was as good as it got.
I didn’t see us win during our 2 years in the premier league but I never thought I’d see us there in my life so I’ll take that. It was a 45 year wait and no matter what happens we got there.
in fairness you's did win the league title 3 times in a row, granted it was the 1920's, but if a team was established once no reasn why they can't become established again.
Depends what you mean by establish. I’d consider 5 seasons as establishing yourself. Smaller clubs than us have done it and we did it ourselves albeit not since the 1950s.
If you aren’t a London club or a northern powerhouse it’s very difficult to do it these days.
Outside the modern top 6 anyone can go down in most seasons. I’d probably exempt Newcastle or to an extent Brighton from that these days. West Ham will be comfortable this season.
“Luv terriers, ate uddersfield”
Some bloke from Leeds
Nahhh, Huddersfield aren't forgotten, they were class against Man UTD in the 17/18 season. Kinda cheared them on throughout the season, David Wagner was cool in press conferences
I remmeber when they won the Championship by beating Newcastle St James, what a day for them...
What? Newcastle had Huddersfield at home in August that season (Huddersfield did win 2-1) and Newcastle won the league.
@@RobJaskula The joke has gone straight over your head Rob
I'd like to see one on Birmingham. These last 10+ years since we were last in the Premier League have been hard for us and hopefully things look to be on the up with the takeover
Coventry. Everyone talks about Luton when they were in League Two. But also with them was Coventry. Coventry have had an incredible rise in the last 5 years. Plus they just lost the play off final to Luton. This would make a perfect video...
However Luton came from even lower, not long before both clubs were in League Two Luton were in the Conference or the National League as it's now called
@@matthewoleary02 Yeah Luton have came from a deeper position league wise but the thing about Coventry though is they were homeless and they played at Northampton's ground and Birmingham's ground. And still til this day they don't own the ground that was built for them. But if we're talking league and relegation wise then Luton were in a much tuffer position.
@Icaptainmole While Luton were very nearly liquidated meaning there quite literally wouldn't have been a Luton Town. Both clubs have had a great rise to get to where they are but Luton definitely win that competition
@@matthewoleary02 Yeah especially that the club were stuck in the national league for a while. Also I like the Cambridge badge you have. I have a soft spot for Cambridge. Good luck today against Bristol Rovers. U's 2-0.
@Icaptainmole Yep, they weren't quite stuck there as long as us, we had 9 years of Conference football but they were there for a long time. The fact that they've now reached the Premier League should give us all hope especially as we were promoted with them back to the football league in 2014, I would love Cambridge to reach the same heights one day but I doubt it will ever happen.
Thanks mate we've had a decent start to the season. I'm going to the Bristol Rovers game today so hopefully a good one!
I love this club js bc I did a whole 15 year career mode w them. I've followed them ever since
The Adama Diakhaby gave me a heart attack there haha. He summed up how much our recruitment shafted us haha
Shocking player😂

This makes me remember Sampdoria 2011-2012, the Year before we finished 4th, so champions league playoff, we lost the playoffs to werder in August and in may 2012 we were relegated
Can you imagine nearly going down into league one, to only 1.5 seasons later being in top spot in the best league in the world during the first few games, then heroically staying up, to then having the worst prem season of all time, to then newrly going down, to then being cheated out of going back up due to a corrupt ref, to then newrly going down. It would be nice to just finish 15th this season to be honest...
As someone who goes to Huddersfield games regularly, this is painful
Don’t know why Swansea were given as the example of second season syndrome, their second season was the ‘Michu’ season, one of our best 🦢🦢
They got promoted against all odds via the playoffs on a very limited budget and managed to stay up in their first season so you gotta say fairplay to them for that, a lot of teams have spent way more money than they did in the past and did a lot worse! Am not a Huddersfield fan either but credit where credit's due 🙂
Predominantly Tier 3 team!!?? In over 110 years of existence, Town have only had 22 seasons in Tier 3, we’ve had loads more in BOTH the top 2 tiers!! And at the start of the 16/17 season, loads of Town fans thought they had a chance of going up, maybe they thought it was too much to ask, but they did think, and I think a lot thought that we’d stay up the following season (definitely not the one after, we knew it wouldn’t last…) Also, Wagner was Borussia Dortmund II coach before he managed Town too…
It amazes me in this day and age with information so readily available, people get things so wrong. Town hadn’t been below the top 2 divisions in our first 63 years. Even since then it’s now 28 seasons below the 2nd tier and 23 in the top 2 tiers.
This season was so fun. I enjoyed watching the Terriers in the league
as a huge town fan, this season was inevitable after our crazy escape the year before. in the end, hopefully we can get back to the pl one day, but either way, up the town.
0:58 what an insane stat
Some teams don’t match up well
That was the year that Wolves looked like the new 7 of the previous big 7. They were genuinely so tough and quality.
And now we’re in league one. However, you forgot to mention that whilst in the premier league we beat Man Utd 2-1 at home
It was a miracle that we got promoted to the premier league in the first place, it was an even bigger miracle that we stayed up!!
you should do a video on the rise of brighton. Ps - Love the content recently
On that 17th place Brighton finish- Exactly the reason why Chris Hughton was given the sack- it was harsh but justified.
In Germany we call it a David Wagner “Reaktion zeigen” Masterclass

You might not want to, but could you do a video on the downfall of reading fc, from championship points record to points deductions, financial problems such as not paying taxes and struggling to register players in league one.
Fun Fact: David Wagner is also one of the reason of Schalke 04's enormous downfall. After the club was hit by a serious financial crisis relating to Covid, the club had a winless streak in the entire second half of 2019/20, but still managed to avoid the relegation, largely due to the numerous draws. However, things got even worse during the first three games of the Bundesliga 2020/21, where they got embarrassed 0-8 by Bayern Munich, 0-4 by Leipzig, and 1-3 by Werder Bremen. He was sacked after this, and Schalke didn't return their good form again with 3 wins, 7 draws, and 24 losses, and had 4 managerial changes in just one season.
What does Wagner have to do with their downfall?
@@messi9991 Actually he is not responsible, but the club itself that had a big issues with management.
Also, the crisis initially started a long time before Covid. The club achieved lowest notes in European competitions, losing 0-7 to Manchester City. Domenico Tedesco (currently the Belgium coach) was sacked afterwards, and the club was unable to maintain consistencies in Bundesliga, finishing outside Europe twice in a row.
"actually he is not responsible". Ok then, not a fun fact then relating to David Wagner.@@ezraezra2928
I do remember that team. It was...o damned. And the reason was, they went up that season when they was a tops mid table Championship team
As a long-time fan of town, it's a fair video. Another reason that wasn't in the video that the board had a lot of the say in the transfer market as well. Now with a new owner only time will tell how things will go now. Keep up the good work 👏 UTT
thats a crime putting mooys face he was quality
This was such a depressing season. We had so many what-if moments, so many small moments in games that didn't go out way, incorrect reds, missed penalties, 1 goal losses... I'm still broken by it
You should probably look up which team Wagner managed before joining Huddersfield. Just makes it all the more of an odd choice that they would appoint yet another Borussia Dortmund U23 (not a B team) coach after him.
i remember Huddersfield Town being in Division 1 in the first sticker album i ever owned . Burnley were there too. i remember being confused when learning how Stoke City & Sunderland or Sheffield Utd also wore the same strip as southampton
The cover featured Jimmy Greaves being tackled by George Graham & all the Huddersfield players had short back & sides & big ears. Probably.
George Best was our God whereas our old man considered Terry Paine to be the best .
😁👍
Honestly, I like to think my football knowledge is pretty good. In particular my Premier League knowledge. That Huddersfield team from those 2 seasons in the Premier League is the most forgettable team in Premier League history. Only know a handful of players from it. 10 at most.
Smashed it with this video bro! As per usual.
For me the most forgettable is Reading, have zero memory of them in 2013/14
Bro you are goated. Keep it up!
Thank you man
How can I forget it 😪
Their relegation/subsequent poor performances didn't shock the Premier League, though. Huddersfield went from a team finishing 19th during the 15/16 season to a team getting promoted via the play-offs a year later. It was a miracle that they survived two seasons in the Premier League.
Huddersfield was that one team you dared your mate to play with while you used a godly team on FIFA 18 (I still lost :( )
As a Huddersfield fan I have to say Wagner was so special. Even before the start of our promotion season there was a feeling of something special around the club. Hopefully with us being relegated this season we can have a fresh new start and go again and try and bounce straight back up but I’m not that confident to be honest
I’m surprised there aren’t more clubs who get promoted and say f*** it we’ll just stick with a Championship budget and bank the cash for the season after.
Yep as a Huddersfield fan we were so bad we had 2 seasons in the prem where as so many teams only had 1, we also finished on 16 points where as Derrby finished on 11 and Sunderland 15 so did those teams shock the premier league more?
Thanks for letting me relive this 🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃🙃
I saw a pic of David Wagner and understand without watching through why.
Losing the playoff final to Huddersfield was our sliding doors moment
While there’s no comment . Thank you Vizeh and hope Burnley can do great this season!
Looking forward for Sean dyche to return to turf Moor and get a standing ovation
I think we'll stay up but not but alot, it's hard to judge
This should have been the team to beat Derby’s points record
That Huddersfield side were woeful, but I'd cast a vote for the Villa side that got relegated in 2016. Horrendous.
Also a shout for 2006 (i think) Sunderland. Awful team who resorted to cheap shots and the only thing they accomplished was sending Alan Shearer into retirement
Shearer was gone by the end of the season anyway and for his last kick of the ball being top bins against the mackems I think he won that particular battle 😂 but could not agree more on villa they we're woeful
@@Ross-t2f one nil down, four one up, Albert Luque wrapped it up 😂😂
We did it all wrong and tried fixing something that wasnt broken in the 2nd season. 18/19 was tragic
If you were to change anything what would it be?
@@Vizeh for a start I wouldn't spend millions on a player like diakhaby. Our top scorer ended up costing us £1 million from league 1 so that alone shows you don't have to spend big to get good players.
from basically from 1908-1972 we never dropped out the top 2 divisions I think we are a massively underperforming teams in recent history
I'm a huddersfield fan great vid mate
Both teams in play-off final are now in league 1
Class video abt something not really spoken abt, still would love a video on bournemouths rise and current resurgence with Micheal B Jordan
Wow look at where Brighton are now!
I promise you Forest fans will be recoiling in horror at the mention of that name too.
Points wise it’s not only Derby that got less points. Sunderland also got less that 16 points.
Derby were relegated on 29th Huddersfield the 30th how is Huddersfield the earliest relegation then? 😂
Serious lack of research here. A lot of us expected us to stay up in the first season and we did. The 2nd season, although I agree we were the worst side in the division we weren’t actually that bad and dominated matches against teams such as Liverpool and Spurs far more than we did in the first season. Also we’re does this myth come from in the modern age that we were “mainly a 3rd tier club” or whatever your word were “prior to getting into the Premier lge”. That’s just not true. In our 115 year history (minus the war years) we have had 22 seasons in the 3rd tier and just 6 in the 4th tier. In contrast we have spent 32 seasons in the top flight and more than 40 in the 2nd tier.
David Wagner still scares me. Greetings from a Schalke fan.
i thought it would have been swindon in the 1993/94 season
Sunderland 05/06 were shocking. 15 pts
I miss the glory days...preston away, burgers at 1.50, two generations...starbuck, oregan, onura, baldry, boovair, trevitt, charlton, barnett, jepson, andy barn door, cowan, chocco jacko, stewart
Oh David Wagner we know him here in Germany. The biggest coach fail together with Kohfeldt
huddersfield town were the first team to win 3 leauges in a row in the 1920s
The more you know
