January 28th:
The most recent game on this day was way back in 2020. The government were still in denial that this thing called Covid 19 was really happening and Town fans were still in denial that another relegation was a reality. More so after this magnificent win at Hull City, a game we won in the 6th minute of added on time.
Before the match, a minute's silence was observed for Jordan Sinnott. Karlan Grant opened the scoring in the first half, with his trademark cutting in from the left wing and whacking it into the net with his right. But then Richard Stearman was adjudged to have had the last touch on a goalmouth scramble as the Tigers equalised.
Town kept pressing and deep into injury time, Elias Kachunga dinked up a lovely cross for super Steve Mounié to head it home and send the travelling fans into ecstasy.
Sadly though, Kamil Grabara was on his way to A&E by the time that went in, after a collision with Christopher Schindler effectively ended his Town career.
The win moved the Terriers up to 19th, above Charlton and Stoke, six points above the drop zone.

Going back a few years more, to the glory days of 2017. And a magnificent 4-0 win at Rochdale in the 4th round of the FA Cup, to back up our 4-0 win against Port Vale in the previous round. This was our biggest away Cup win since that 5-1 win at West Ham I mentioned the other day.
Rochdale started the brightest and should've taken the lead following a bad back pass from Mark Hudson, but it was the mighty Terriers who scored first. David Wagner had just signed a lad on from Union Berlin and he was thrown in up top for this one. And he scored on his debut, the first of many he scored on his way to writing his name in Huddersfield Town legend. He is, of course, Collin Quaner.
Wagz called that goal the tin opener, like we say opening up the floodgates, which it did. He changed formation at half time, bringing on Jonathan Hogg for Harry Bunn and then replacing Elias Kachunga with Michael Hefele and sticking the big lad up front with Quaner.
Izzy Brown scored from the spot to make it 2-0, then the Hef got his first of the day to make it 3-0. And he was sent through on goal by Coll to get his second near the end to send the crowd wild with his Lion Claw celebration.
Next up, Man City at home in the 5th.
