Something about Watford's inconsistency, always capable of beating anyone, difficult side to play against. On paper its an easy win but will need to be on our best concentration and level of football we are capable of or a shock could happen.

Because it's P5 D2 L3.

Home form they average 1.77 PPG, away just 0.4 PPG, the biggest difference in the league. Norwich are very bizarre:

Home P5 L5
Away P6 W2 D2 L2

Even Watfords defeats are low margin, nothing by more than 1 goal so far. If any team can put that under threat its us but i'll take any kind of win.

Doing the maths, like with Blackburn it looks like they only took an allocation of 1,500.

1-0 edgy win. Bobby Thomas's massive forehead from 6 yards out in about thr 45th minute, assist from Torpedo. Also predict we'll wear our home Sky blue kit.

Don't worry about a pacemaker. They're brilliant these days. I've survived 4 x heart attacks, had a double bypass in 2002, and since had 5 stents inserted at various times. I told myself I was going to meet my maker but happily came out all good. Still smoke like a chimney and drink like a fish. Now 72, but I just don't care anymore!

I’d rather have been playing this game a few weeks ago - I watched them on the TV against Millwall and I thought they looked dreadful and wouldn’t have ruled out them being in a relegation battle

Have since got their new (old) manager in Gracia who they seem to like as he did well the first time round with them and is someone they can unite behind so I do think it is a tougher game than it would have been earlier in the season

That being said, I cannot profess to know a single thing about their squad - only ever heard of a couple of them, they just seem to have a new squad every season with a couple of stalwarts like Sissoko and Kayembe thrown in

They're mainly average players with a few good players. They also haven't travelled well with just 2 points away from home so far.

They seem to sit back and hit on the break. They had less than 40% possession at home against WBA. Our defence should be able to cope with their attacks. They've only scored 13 goals in 11 games. We've only conceded 1 goal in over 600 minutes.

Keep Louza quiet and we'll win comfortably I think

3-1 I'm going with

Exactly how I feel about them. Watched a chunk of their game against Albion, and they were a mixed bag. Louza is a quality player, and they have what I would class as a few maverick players, who blow either hot or cold. Their strength is their attack, but they are definitely vulnerable at the back. A potential banana skin, and I'm hoping the crowd can get up for this, as these are the type of games we are going to need to win if we want a top 2 spot.

Edit: hoping the extra 24 hours rest, plus the 12.30 ko will give us an added advantage.

Just bought my son some ear defenders for tomorrow. Some tears the last couple of visits so hopefully these will help.

I then don't need to worry about the noise of our 3 goals going in ;-)
