We found a way to win against a good team says Huddersfield Town boss Michael Duff after victory at Mansfield Town
and on Freeview 262 or Freely 565
“Conditions were horrible and seemed to get even worse in the second half, so we were pleased to see it through,” he smiled.
“These are days that no one remembers, but it's three points the same as in August when you're in short sleeves and sunglasses, rolling it around all over the place. Three points is three points.

“They got in behind us much more than anyone else has recently.
“Earlier in the season we were finding ways to lose.”
Duff believes his side should have had a penalty and home keeper Christy Pym sent off for cleaning out Josh Koroma midway through the second half.
“There was a massive point in the second half when it should have been a red card and a penalty. Luckily it's not cost us,” he said.

“Credit to the players for the way they went about it as it as it's days like this when players can start hiding and pulling their shirt sleeves down as it's a bit cold.
“I think there is so much more to come from this team. Winning is a habit and it's about mentality.
“The togetherness in this team is starting to show and players are sticking to their tasks. They are starting to trust each other.”
