Blood and thunder Cheltenham shut up shop and earned a well-deserved point at the McAlpine Stadium.
Huddersfield Town had won their last seven home games on the trot but a dogged Cheltenham Town display upset the odds.
The home side started much the brighter and had The Robins rocking right from the whistle. Danny Schofield could have put the Terriers in the lead as early as the third minute when his ferocious shot cracked against the post.
The rebound fell to Jon Stead but he ballooned his effort over the bar from close-range. Just minutes later Schofield again rattled the woodwork. Stead played a ball inside to Booth who slipped a clever pass beyond the back four but Schofield's shot was again thwarted by the post.
Cheltenham weathered the early Town storm and as the half dragged on could even have scored themselves.
Martin Devaney nicked a loose ball midway inside the Town half and quickly turned defence into attack leaving Nathan Clarke alone against three attackers.
Devaney played the ball to Grant McCann in acres of space but fired a weak shot over the bar.
In the second half Cheltenham dug in and scrapped hard enough to ensure a point. They could have grabbed all three but a stooping Damian Spencer header fell just wide of Phil Senior's post.
Cheltenham boss John Ward was delighted his team had kept a clean sheet and frustrated Terriers. "We dug in and worked hard and I think I will certainly be the happiest of the two managers," he said. "We knew their home record was outstanding so we came with a game plan to spoil and on another day we could have even nicked all three points." Huddersfield Manager Peter Jackson admitted he was disappointed but said it could have been a lot different with a bit of luck.
"We can't win every home game three or four nil." he said. "It was a shame we couldn't take all three points but this result is far from a disaster."
