Huddersfield Town Morning Round-Up, Sunday 8th November 2026: Town Crash Out of the FA Cup to Exeter City
Town's FA Cup first round adventure is over after a 1-2 home defeat to Exeter City at the Accu Stadium, with the club's own matchday report confirming the result following yesterday's tie against the visitors (HTAFC.com). The Yorkshire Post's round-up of Yorkshire clubs in the competition lists Town among those crashing out, alongside Doncaster Rovers, while Bradford City and Rotherham United progressed to the next round (Yorkshire Post).
Elsewhere, a scheduled Town fixture has been postponed at the club's own request, with a new date now being sought according to the Huddersfield Examiner (Huddersfield Examiner).
On the transfer front, Football League World reports a claim that Huddersfield Town should be demanding £7m-£8m for a player described as "unplayable" and rated better than Sorba Thomas, though this remains speculation at this stage rather than confirmed interest or a fee (Football League World).
With the Cup run now finished, focus for Town turns back to league business as they look to regroup following Saturday's exit.
