We’ll thrive

season no matter how Town perform.

Having said that, he does however expect David Wagner’s men to earn results should they continue to perform in the same vein as they showed against Crystal Palace on Saturday, when they secured a 3-0 debut win in the Premier League.

It will be dog eat dog going forward and Boothy believes Town can thrive in that environment.

In an interview with Sky Sports News HQ, Town’s third-top scorer of all time said: “We’re going to enjoy it when Manchester United and Man City come to us and when we go away there, but it’s the lower teams that we’ve got to take points off.

“I’m sure we’ll do that and I’m sure teams will take points off us as well.

“It’s going to be up and down, but nobody’s expecting anything from us this year so we can enjoy it.

“We’re here and we’re going to compete.”

Boothy has seen the hard work which Town have put in on the training ground and believes there is a desire to ensure they cause plenty more ‘shocks’ like the one they produced down at Selhurst Park.

“Knowing David and knowing the players, they’ll be taking every game like they did on Saturday and there won’t be any reason why they can’t do that against a lot of clubs.

“We play open football, we like to pass the ball and I’m sure teams are going to come to Huddersfield and play the same way, so I’m sure we’re going to have some cracking games at the stadium this season.

“What’s happened last season and what’s happening now, Huddersfield fans can’t believe – but they are going to enjoy it.

“Whatever happens this season, it will be a season to remember.”
