| Former U's 13:45 - Feb 26 with 110523 views | RSCOSWORTH | 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. https://youtube.com/shorts/xl2 Jay also got the equaliser away at Weston-super-Mare last night. Hopefully he's starting to enjoy his football again. [Post edited 26 Feb 2025 13:55]

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! |  |

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 . |  |

| Former U's on 08:31 - Sep 20 with 177 views | noah4x4 | 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! |  | |  |
