Liked his attitude tonight, unlike Aarons, he didn't just turn up because he was told to, he put in a shift and was driving the team forward, in the last minute of injury time he really should have been played in be a ball squared to him after making a good run. He was playing at 75% speed for sure, which is sensible at that level but he was still focused and was pinging the ball around especially in that first half.

"Television viewers will be able to watch live coverage of any midweek Sky Bet Championship match under a revolutionary five-year, £600 million deal between Sky TV and the EFL. Details of the agreement for 2019-2024, which the EFL communicated to its 72 members clubs last night, are due to be announced today. The value of the right has increased by 36% from the present £88m a year deal and the new arrangements will allow far greater access for fans to live coverage of EFL matches. The impact will be felt this season as Sky will be able to screen some midweek Championship matches immediately. From next season the broadcaster can show every midweek match via its interactive service so that viewers can choose which game to watch. There are eight full midweek rounds of Championship matches so there will be regular head to head clashes with Champions League matches being shown on BT Sport. In another development, clubs in the Championship, League One, and League Two will be allowed to stream live on their website all of their matches kicking off outside the Saturday 3pm window, apart from those being shown live on Sky. Sky will have the option to screen up to 150 EFL games each season, not including those on the interactive service. The 15 play-off matches and 15 League Cup matches are also part of Sky's package, as are the semi finals and final of the Checkatrade Trophy. The EFL's decision to offer a choice of matches to the armchair viewer, especially for the midweek rounds, is likely to be discussed by the Premier League chairmen next month when they discuss strategy for their next TV deal, which is expected to be finalised early next year." Thanks, wow good to see coverage is improving, last year for us was dreadful.

That is hilarious, thanks.

Fuck my eyes aren't anywhere near good enough to read that

Traffic must be bad around that stadium, so many white seats now.

Very scrappy second too, bad defending by Huddersfield, could be this year's Boro, they can defend but offensively there's not a lot there, Mounie is feeding on less than scraps.

I don't think he was ever going to leave for West Ham at this point, even after the shambles of the window.

On the evidence of this half, these two will be down there at the business end of the season for sure.

Awesome goal, lol.

It's nothing like our game against them like. We couldn't deal with their high pressing in that game and they controlled the game because of it. Here it's been all West Ham, Huddersfield are hanging on, defending deep. They had one shot on target against us, hardly fair to say we couldn't deal with them, even though we were awful that we still really should have won the game, we created way more chances but our finishing was wretched that day.

Zabaleta, is way past it, was terrible against us and cost them a point at Southampton. That's just a waste of wages IMO.

Was watching the u23's but looks like a typical Huddersfield game from the stats 1 shot on target from both teams, one shot in total from Huddersfield. Really mad we put in that insipid performance against them, they are nothing.

It's not that great a squad either, it's got a few big names, like Benteke, Cabaye, Townsend and Zaha, but there is a lot of garbage there too although Loftus-Creek on loan is a excellent addition. Enough for Hodgson to do what he does though and they'll be comfortable this season in the end like last year. He's 70 years old though so again they'll probably be looking for a new manager soon.

Been a weird game, we've had all the chances really, they've had most of the possession and it's 2-2. Awful penalty decision by the ref though, looks like settling this as a draw.

Never a pen like.

O'connor was poor there, went with the ball instead of following his man. Woodman's got to save that though.

I applaud them for trying it, I'm sure they are not working on a PL type live coverage budget. It's free for us, lets just enjoy and hope they continue to broadcast these games .

Had to go eat, is it 3-0 now ? Nvm, still 2-0.

Shelvey is pinging this ball around, we really need to get him into the first team, I still think a flatter three of Shelvey Hayden and Merino can work.

I don't think they are playing in the first team, tight fit shirts, look more like the loose fit, I doubt he's put on a huge amount of weight in the couple of weeks since we last seen him.

2-0 missed it to the stream.

Lovely ball by shelvey, in that goal. Lost my stream though

I'll watch the 2nd half of that game, since the reserves kick off an hour before.

Will be watching it, looking forward to it, nice to see the club streaming these games, why not, they could get a fair few viewers.
