Huddersfield are still backed by a wealthy and passionate owner in dean Hoyle.

I saw a table with wealth of champ owners and Delia and Michael now finish bottom in the whole division in terms of wealth.

Even with the very best in strategy and recruitment this will make things very hard for us in the longer term
