Cowleys Gave Us Chris Of Life!'

We’ve gone back to basics, says Schindler

- Joe Leavey

AT THE start of the season, Christopher Schindler had never heard of the Cowley brothers, but now the Huddersfi eld captain is at the forefront of their revolution.

After taking just one point from their opening six Championship outings under the stewardship of Schindler’s German compatriot Jan Siewert and caretaker boss Mark Hudson, the Terriers board rolled the dice and gave the former Lincoln bosses an opportunity at the John Smith’s Stadium.

A pair of defeats followed in their opening two games in charge, but since then, Town had lost only once in their last ten ahead of the weekend’s trip to Bristol City.

Buffer

That run handed them a two-point buffer from the relegation zone, as well as Championship Manager of the Month honours for Danny Cowley in October.

And though he admits that there is still plenty of work to do as they continue to battle for safety, 29-year-old Schindler has been completely converted to the ways of the Cowleys.
