A MOMENTOUS NIGHT AT THE STADIUM
Those who attended the Huddersfield Town Centenary Legends Dinner at the Galpharm Stadium last night experienced a legendary evening, with greats from throughout the Club's history coming together to celebrate the rich history of Huddersfield Town.
Along with the excellent Malcolm Lord as MC, former Club greats Steve Kindon and Keith Hanvey hosted the evening in front of a packed English Partnership suite at the Stadium. Over 350 attendees enjoyed a superb three course meal and listened to tales from legendary Huddersfield Town players including the inimitable Frank Worthington, Mark Lillis, Dave Sutton, Trevor Cherry, Roy Ellam, Geoff Hutt and Mally Brown.

Other Town legends who took to the stage to regale the attendees with tales of their spells at Leeds Road included striker Les Massie, former player and manager Steve Smith, Town player turned England cricketer Arnie Sidebottom, Kevin McHale, Jimmy McGill, Ian Robins, 'keeper Alan Starling and more recent stars such as Wayne 'The Chief' Allison, Kieran O'Regan, Tom Cowan, Jon Dyson and the one and only Andy Booth.

Town boss Clark also told the audience that he is hoping to contribute to the Club's history by creating a new set of legends in the coming months and years.
Director of Business Development Sean Jarvis told htafc.com that he was delighted with the event:
"The Centenary Legends Dinner was a fantastic event - it had a very different feel to a normal Sporting Dinner and I felt the different format went down very well with the audience," Sean explained.
"To have over 350 people attend was tremendous given the current economic climate and I think it shows how proud everyone is of the history of the Club.
"We are very grateful to the legends that came along and made it a very special evening."
The next event at the Stadium is on April 25th when Town host the annual 'Player of the Year' awards - click HERE for more information!
