Former U's 13:45 - Feb 26 with 110523 viewsRSCOSWORTH

We love our former U's, well most of them anyway, so thought I'd start a thread where we can keep up with them.

Thought I'd kick things off with a happier moment for Matt Jay in Essex as he scored a long ranger against Chelmsford at the weekend. It wasn't a joyous return though as Torquay shipped two late goals to lose 3-2 after leading 2-0.

Jay also got the equaliser away at Weston-super-Mare last night. Hopefully he's starting to enjoy his football again.

Sammie Szmodics scores again vs Charlton Athletic as Charlton came from behind to beat Derby County 2-1!


Portsmouth 0 - 2 Derby County

Szmodics snuck the Rams into an early lead as he collected the ball in the box and found the net via a Portsmouth defender and Blues keeper Daniel Bielica.

Aren't Huddersfield the reason we now play in blue and white stripes? Isn't their stadium also similar to ours?

Stripes - Yes - We played them in the FA Cup in 1948 (and beat them 1-0) and adopted blue and white stripes after that.
Stadium - No - Their stadium is nothing like ours other than it had 4 sides and blue seats. Their stadium was built by Alfred McAlpine I think there was talk in the 1990s that Alfred McAlpine might build ours too.

One out of two ain't bad. Sounds pretty similar. Samson will feel right at home!

U’s adopted blue and white stripes when turning professional in 1937. Manager Ted Davies had played for the Terriers .
In the famous cup game 1947 the U’s played in pink and chocolate quarters .

If memory serves, I'm sure I read once that Huddersfield actually provided the kit as well?

Think I read it also Wessex, also Ted Davis was a great admirer of Herbert Chapman, who left the Terriers and became a Gonners legend .

Samson Tovide, first player rating on Weareterriers.com….

Samson Tovide (for Fletcher 63) - On for his debut. Straight swap at centre-forward. Gave the ball away needlessly with multiple options ahead of him as Bromley restored their lead. Got in up the right a few minutes later but his return ball to DSF was poor. We’re going a bit easy in light of his lack of a pre-season, but still an afternoon to forget. 4

No surprises there….!

A mere four and the final line suggests a generosity that wasn’t warranted!
