    Huddersfield are a far bigger club in my opinion. Bigger fanbase, far superior stadium and a history that Luton could only dream of.

    Really? Weren't you around in the 80s when Luton were reaching, and winning cup finals?

    They won the League Cup once in the late 80's, hardly in the same league as Huddersfield Town.

    That was nearly 100 years ago when football was very, very different. There won't be many Town fans alive who even saw it.

    A lot of Luton fans though will remember their recent success and plenty of years as a top flight club.

    Well we beg to differ then but I maintain my opinion that Huddersfield are a bigger club than Luton, and nobody will convince me otherwise

    I'm not sure it even matters to be fair anyway. Big club doesn't mean what is used to, big club now just means having the richest owner who's willing to spend.

    Luton of course, but thats irrelevant in the context of the debate of who is perceived as bring the bigger ckub.

    Are they bigger than Leeds and Leucester then. Are Fleetwood bigger than Bradford City?

    Final line from a BBC article about the man, brilliant take on getting sacked by Town.

    "It was a great time to get the sack," he added. "The Ryder Cup was coming up, the Rugby World Cup was starting and it was the Cricket World Cup."

    Looks like Huddersfields Kevin Nagle is another Edin as an owner. Sacked Warnock after Warnock didn’t like him calling a defeat a thrashing on Twitter. Now after tweeting “NOT GOOD ENOUGH”after the Plymouth draw, he says he’s going to keep Darren Moore for the moment but intends to talk to the players about passing backwards as he doesn’t like it. This will end in tears.

    Bloke just can’t pack it in.
