Stayed near there for Burnley last year. Hebden Bridge is cool with an old hippy atmosphere. Try the Secret Cafe at Luddenden Foot for breakfast with a walk along the canal towards Sowerby Bridge afterwards. The moors above Midgeley are fantastic for walking, especially if you have, or can borrow, a dog. The Piece Market in Halifax is well worth a visit.

In my experience practically everyone you speak to around there will be nice so put time aside to chat to people.


I went to Hebden Bridge once, to visit the clog factory. It was closed!
 
A Champions League and Europa League official, Taylor has issued seven red cards and 128 yellows in his 38 matches this season.

But in his last three games refereeing Town - 270 minutes of top-flight action - he has twice not issued a card to any Town player and the only Terrier he has booked was Jonathan Hogg (against Newcastle).

To go two matches without issuing a card - especially with the rough end of the stick Town have had with many decisions this season - is quite remarkable.

And especially so when Taylor has handed out four reds in his last five matches - although two were in the Sevilla vs Lazio Europa League a couple of weeks ago (one for each side).

From Top To Bottom

Manchester City’s victory 0-1 against us at Dean Court gave them the top spot after Liverpool drawing and taking just one point from their clash with neighbours Everton on Sunday at Goodison Park. The Cherries now are on their travels to Yorkshire to play the team currently at the other end of the table in the bottom spot Huddersfield Town (the Terriers).

Huddersfield Town appointed former coach with Borussia Dortmund’s second team Jan Siewert to become their new manager after David Wagner left his job in January. This was the role David Wagner held before joining Huddersfield in 2015 as their manager. Siewart hasn’t had a very good start. Losing his first four matches and then in their home game against Wolves, Huddersfield recorded their first win since they beat Wolves away in November, recording the double under different managers. Things returned to normal in the next game at Brighton with yet another defeat.

In the January transfer window Huddersfield Town signed three players, one for an undisclosed fee, one on a free transfer and one on loan. Striker Karlan Grant signed from Charlton Athletic for an undisclosed fee. On a free transfer was left-back Jaden Brown from Tottenham, he joined Huddersfield Development squad. The loan player is midfield player Jason Puncheon from Crystal Palace joined until the end of the season.

After our home game at Dean Court in December, Huddersfied Town after 15 games were 17th in the table with 10 points. They then lost their next 5 games, away at Arsenal 1-0, home to Newcastle United 0-1, home to Southampton 1-3, away to Manchester United 3-1 and finally losing away at fellow relegation rivals Fulham 1-0. This meant they had lost every game (7) in December, finishing the end of the year in last place after 20 games with 10 points.

Start off a new year and January wasn’t much better, picking up 1 point out of a possible 12. First they were home against Burnley, the Terriers lost 1-2. The next game was a visit to Wales to play Cardiff City, it finished 0-0 and the only point for Huddersfield Town that month. Back home to the John Smith’s Stadium to play Manchester City, City won 0-3. Next game the last of the month, was home again, it ended in a 0-1 defeat against Everton.

February started with an away visit to Stamford Bridge to play Chelsea, Huddersfield were thumped 5-0. Next game was at home against another London club Arsenal, the Gunners won 1-2. Then it was an away trip up to the North East to play Newcastle United, the home side took the spoils in a 2-0 victory. Last match of the month was at home, this time Huddersfield Town won, beating Wolves 1-0. Into March and the only game so far away at Brighton ended 1-0. The league table looking very precarious for the Terriers, rooted to the bottom after 29 games with 14 points, 13 points off a safety place with 9 games to go.

This season at Dean Court against Huddersfield Town, they had most of the possession and a number of more shots on goal and on target than AFCB. But the Cherries got two early goals to take a 2-0 lead, first Wilson and then Fraser. Huddersfield scored before the break through Kongolo and it was 2-1 at half-time. There were no more goals in the second half.

The Cherries have only played one game in the Premier League at Huddersfield’s ground and it ended in a 4-1 defeat. That game again Huddersfield had more shots and on target than the Cherries. At Dean Court we won both games, 2017-18, 4-0 and this season 2-1. In all league games away against Huddersfield Town, the Cherries have Won 5, drawn 11 (plus play-off) and lost 9.
In all competitions, the Cherries have won 15, drawn 19 and lost 18.

David Brooks in midfield and Josh King upfront. Could we be seeing Callum on the bench or even starting? That would be a big boost.
 
It’s the new trend on here. It’s the Vitals equivalent of veganism.

We will be changing our Eddie had a dream song soon...

‘We play from the back
From Ake to Clyne
The one thing we won’t cross
Is the halfway line’

DJ, Rob and Druss will be bringing their ‘Moyes in’ placards to the Newcastle game.

Are we joining you considering you’ve also stated you understood the reasoning behind the tactics?

I hope josh is one to watch. Last few games haven’t suited him. Hopefully josh in the centre with brooks at no 10 if Wilson’s not fit.
 
A couple of suggestions.

National Mining Museum, Caphouse Coliery near Wakefield.
Calderdale Industrial Museum, Halifax
Idle
Bradford Industrial Museum, Eccleshill
Haworth. Old White Lion used to do great steak.

If industrial heritage is your thing go to Saltaire, not too far from Haworth or Hebden Bridge which are both worth a visit
 
Huddersfield's slim Premier League survival hopes have been hit by further injuries before Saturday's home game against Bournemouth.

Jonathan Hogg has been ruled out due to a rib injury, Laurent Depoitre (foot) is a big doubt and defender Demeaco Duhaney, Adama Diakhaby and Isaac Mbenza are also still sidelined.

"I think we're short on numbers at the moment, that's why I've had to write it down," said Huddersfield boss Jan Siewert.
