Friday is a day i’d say the other results (QPR and Reading) are just as important as ours.

Another referee doing his 2nd Warnock game, David Webb was in the middle when the Sky Blues smashed us four nowt recently.......He's done five Watford matches so far this season, they've drawn four & lost one.

No, he's down to score the Tom Ince goal in the last match. It's all set up, isn't it? Last game of the season, Wigan and Blackpool already down with just the final relegation spot to decide. Huddersfield Town and Reading level on points, level on goal difference. Then Tom Ince gets a last gasp winner. Do you remember that incredible Boxing Day game at home to Blackpool, 10 seasons ago, when they should have been out of sight by half-time? Then Gerrard pinched one from a corner and we held on until the very last gasp, when Ince went around any number of our defenders to lay on the equaliser. Beckford had the ball in the centre circle and only had to play it out to Vaughan on the right wing and there wouldn't have been time for that last attack, but the silly sod contrived to lose possession. It may have saved Grayson's job if we'd held on to win. |

Watford have drawn and lost their last two matches. We've won ours. I suspect they're not looking forward to meeting us on Friday. As long as we don't lose I'll be happy.

Was that game Delfouneso equalised in injury time? |

Euston station closed over Easter. Could be a bit of a challenge to get from KGX. Be warned.

I don't think we'll get away with another 1st half like against Middlesbrough. We have to defend further up the pitch, gain more possession and create more. The 2nd half goal fest was a freak tbh and I can't see us doing that again anytime soon. We're short of wingers and a forward who can win arial battles and hold the ball up better .

Warnock v Wilder, battle of the Yorkshiremen, born & bred Sheffield Utd fans, ex Rotherham players, ex Boro/Blades managers, possibly related?.....Both will be trying to put one over the other, honours even 1-1.

Their fans will be wanting a reaction from their players after losing against Luton, if we keep doing what we did against Millwall, boro, he should be alright, just frustrated them their fans won't like it.

I don’t like defending so deep, but the ‘low block’ has got us 7 points from playing 3 of the top 7. |

True enough...but it's nerve wracking watching ball after ball chipped into our 6 yard box...then you get the likes of REG who gets caught out... i'm much happier when we're 60 yards away from our own area.... |

Why single out a player who's played a key role in our last two wins? We've looked so much more solid with him just in front of the defence; I think we've finally found a role for the lad. |

Presume the poster is referring to the 2nd Boro goal where he made no attempt to challenge for the header. He has been a blessing in the 'wherever he goes you go' role V Millwall and Boro. |

Don’t think it was REGs fault that we were allowing them to launch balls into the box. Yea Akpom beat him in the box once but he’s done that to pretty much every team they have played. Thing he has been excellent in a unfamiliar role.

We will but not many are expecting much . Very little positivity in the fanbase atm and the general feeling is our season has finished with many of the players not that bothered as lots will be going in the summer . BTW seems like the away fans pub - the Oddfellows is shut. www.watfordobserver.co.uk/leisure/23439643.oddfellows-boarded-short-notice-closure/ |
