Yeah that part is absurd, but I was looking more at what he’d written about their own performances. A lot like their faith in managers, very unpredictable and never long term.

As ive said a few times on Watford, always a couple of really good individuals but overall pretty guff.

The 2-1 last season was pretty flattering for them I thought. Cracking Torp free kick too

Chakvetadze was class as always but yes it should have been more comfortable.

 

[Covcraig@bury]

5-0 or 6-0 with a hatrick thrown in for fun , or Lampard needs to go

Still trying to get my head around one striker scoring 8 from 11 and another 8 from 10

 

[David O'Day]

Right, this is the 6 goal game we need for the collection.

Or the 1-0

@3.60 about time Doug got his finger out and launch the £2 pie offer

Snoop Doug meal deal a mug of Bovril, Balti Pie and a packet of salt & vingar flavoured mini poppadoms.

 

[no_loyalty]

It’s about time we gave someone a hammering ,
5-1 win. Torp with a hat trick.

 

[Captain Dart]

Note to self, I must remember it's a 12:30 kick off.

 

[coop]

They don't seem like they are playing to bad tonight lots of shots and created a lot so hopefully at them from the off and get an early goal.

 

[long way home]

They have a few players that can create some problems for us. But as ling as we play to our normal standard and keep control of the midfield i think we will be ok.

But these worry more than Pompey did..

 

[David O'Day]

Or the 1-0

we've got a game where we only scored 1

 

[Londonccfcfan]

They dont look a tall big side. So set pieces gonna be important.

They look decent on the ball ..just an unpredictable side as always.

 

[Liquid Gold]

I can't remember ever feeling so comfortable going into a game.

That normally circles back round to worry about being overconfident but not this time.

Anything other than a comfortable win would be a big surprise to me.

 

[Lamps]

A very winnable game but won't be as easy as many seem to think. I predict a win but a draw wouldn't be a surprise. They're not very good away from home but new manager bounce? But their late Wednesday game against WBA then an early kickoff Saturday will also be in our favour. 2-0 win for us....

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Rushworth

van Ewijk - Thomas - Kitching - Dasilva

Torp - Grimes

Sakamoto - Thomas-Asante - Mason-Clarke

Wright​

 

[Johhny Blue]

Could this be the week Bobby Thomas gets his hat trick?

 

[Chicken Mcgraw]

Upsetting to see the arrogance on here. Will be another tough game.

 

[Covcraig@bury]

Right, this is the 6 goal game we need for the collection.

That’s the spirit

 

[CovValleyBoy]

I can't help thinking KKH should be starting & feel same about Woolf. 2 Class players.
What a squad.

 

[skyblue_55]

Watford seemingly have just raised their game .
A new intensity last night , to beat the baggies , but let’s hope they are drained for Saturday .
Another 3 points on the board for the mighty Skyblues .
N.B
If we go through this season unbeaten , where do we put Franks bronze statue , as we are running out of space ?

 

[alexccfc99]

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

 

[JSL]

I had a dream last night that I forgot it was 12:30 KO and missed it. Cant afford to miss any home games in these exciting times. A win is all I ask for even if by a single OG

 

[Skyblueweeman]

My boys 3rd game. A draw and a win so far. Pretty confident by 3pm on Saturday, he still won't have seen us lose.

3-0 Cov.

Your just going to forget your tickets again on purpose aren't you .....

 

[Covcraig@bury]

Going to miss this game, well pissed off All this excitement over the last month or so has given me palpitation's . So the cardiologist has insisted I have a pacemaker fitted as a matter of urgency. This is the price of over excitement and being a bloody good side . So enjoy the game you luck fucks .

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

I'd go back to the back four. Keep the pairing that's worked so far this season, which is a bit unfair on Woolf.

Wright to come back in, which is a bit harsh on Simms, but I'd definitely look to given him another 20-30 mins where possible. If we're comfortable I'd think of finishing the game with Wright on the left, BTA on the right and Simms central.

I'd also look to give KKH half hour or so. MvE has played a lot of minutes in a week so resting if possible would be good. I think he's also got 4 yellows now so may end up with a ban soon and getting KKH comfortable playing in that back line would be ideal.

Rushworth
MvE Thomas Kitching Dasilva
Grimes Torp
Saka BTA EMC
Wright

Ha ha, I've already downloaded them to my phones wallet. Just need to bring a charger in the car, just in case!

All that excitement of being top of the table is obviously getting to you!

In all seriousness, health takes priority so you're doing the right thing. Stay healthy!

They're actually above using the home form table, 2nd to our 3rd, but they're rock bottom of the away form table.

3-1 city

 

[chiefdave]

Looks like we're heading for another sold out game, and there's even less left for Sheff Utd so that will be another sell out. Then its West Brom so that will likely sell out.

What's the record for most consecutive games sold out? Can't imagine its happened that often in my lifetime.

Remember when Doug said he wanted 29k as an average attendance..... The mans mystic meg..
