The 2018-19 Season has already kicked off in the EFL and we are about to set off on our 2nd Prima Donna League journey to raise yet more cash for our two favourite charideees - well on this forum anyway - as Town fight tooth and nail to prove all the pundits wrong for the 3rd season on the trot.
As before all money raised goes to either the Huddersfield Town Foundation, or the Yorkshire Air Ambulance service. Or you can split it between the two.
For those not sure what to do, pick your favourite player (or two, or more) and donate a sum of money for everytime they score a goal, pick up a red card, get subbed, get selected for an international squad, miss games through injury, whatever. You can also add the odd flyer on another team or another sport if you like. Make sure it's something easy to verify. We don't all go to every game or listen to Oggy when we can't go either.
It's not just restricted to players either - it could be the number of goals we score against certain teams, or points against clubs from a region or even how many times Wagbo gets sent to the stand for celebrating on the pitch. I've beeen known to throw the odd baseball score in there too. Not limited to Town fans either - we'll welcome all comers. Put your money where your mouth is and raise some brass for good causes.
Look, it's easy, you pick 'em, I'll add 'em up, but keep an eye on me in case I miss the odd score, booking, red card etc. Just please be kind enough to cough up at the end of the season for the charideee's concerned.
We've raised a fare sum over the years (is anyone keeping count?). Last season we beat £100 again, with £61.50 to the Foundation and £65.50 to Keep it Up. So let's continue to Keep It Up and put a breakfast or two on those hungry kids plates.
I'll sort out the Just Giving Pages in the very near future and post the links here.
I'll post regular updates to this first postand to the regular/latest posts for totals and all the usual banter is welcome.

Lot's of lookers but no takers yet.
OK I'll go first, a pound a point again. NO LIMITS.

£1 for goals scored by any of the new boys including Hadagonad / Hadergjonaj and He's Magic Ya Know, You'll Never Get Past Kongolo. Do I need to name them all or are you ok with that? £1 for every penalty saved by our goalkeepers, to cover if Lossl doesn't play. £1 for every Schindler yellow card, just because I like him. All competitions. £10 if we stay up.
I was going to say £20 if I get to wash baby elephants when I go to Sri Lanka in Feb. That has nowt to do with Town except I will miss Wolves at home.
What about yourself, theo?

I already did mine AmChaff (Post#2) - making me work again at the start of this season I see, just like last season. You'll need a spreadsheet for yourself with this lot.
Right so including Hadhergonads there's this lot to squeeze in.
Goals by MBemba, Kongolo, Diakhaby, Sobhi, Hadhergonads, Bacuna, Durm, Lössl, Hamer. The last two are keepers but technically "new" signings as are Magic and Gonads. Have I missed anyone?
£1 per penaly save by whoever is in goals is how I've interpreted your additional goalkeeping wish, I'll take that to also include an outfield player if disaster strikes (we've done it before), £1 per yellow card for Herr List, £10 to stay up.
Hold on the baby elephants for now but you might go for £20 if you are feeling flush.
Have you won the lottery or the pools and kept it quiet Am's?
Whatever - your definitely the first 4 liner (might be more) on the spreadsheet for this season. I managed to squeeze everyone onto 2 lines max last season.
PS If you only mean our designated goalkeepers rather than an outfield player in there in an emergency, please make it clear.
Also - if the penalty is saved but the rebound is knocked in, do I count it as a save? Technically, he saved the penalty kick but we still concede a goal.

Yes to the players, outfield players and rebounds. No to lottery win. Do you have to list them all? I can narrow it to attacking players if you think it's daft.

You can name the whole squad for me AmChaff - if I don't put 'em in me spreadsheet, my two remaining braincells, Charlie and Cynthia will never remember who's new and who's not. It's your brass your spending, so pick who you like.
Spreadsheet updated on post #1 so check I've got it right - might take a minute or two.

Anyhoos....to start mine off let's have....

£1 a point v any of the newly promoted sides....Cardiff, Fulham, Wolves.
£1 for every goal scored by us from outside the penalty box.

It played up a bit first time round, seems OK on my laptop (Interweb Explorer) and Android phone. I'll check some more browsers over the weekend. Will add your choices at the same time.
