I don't think there's been any fallout as such but Robins was clearly upset at Max not following his instructions in the game where he came on as sub (Bolton?)
He's been out of favour since and MR said in his post match interview 'it won't happen again'

If he’s not in the squad tonight I’d suggest his days are numbered

I also think Mason will be desperate to play against his former employers. Does anyone know why McFadzean missed Saturdays game? I thought it might have just been a bit of squad rotation after a busy start but for Williams to be on the bench, was there an injury? Apologies if this has been mentioned elsewhere.

Small hamstring injury, was more of a precaution than anything else. He could be involved tonight, but I would doubt it, probably save him for Saturday rather than risk it

Any news on Allen? I thought he was only a couple of weeks away injured. seems to have gone very quiet in regards his return.

Two weeks apparently.

Getting the impression it’s a bit like the stadium plans “three weeks” though.

There's the VAR Bar at the stadium. They use the security cameras to check who's next to be served - make sure no-one's gained an unfair advantage pushing in front of the last man.

This is an actual thing.

It's normally only his left bollock that is onside as he saunters around on his heels, back to goal.

Obviously he's not going to come out and say 'they're absolutely shit lolz' (even if we were), but some positive comments by the Watford manager...


“They are a good team,” he said of Coventry.

“They are brave, play 4-3-3, attacking well and I like the way they are playing. We have to be ready to compete well.

Sky Sports News saying Wellbeck is likely to start for them.

Will certainly be a good test of our defenders if he plays him with Andre Gray!

Given his injury problems I guess you're advocating getting stuck into him early so he doesn't fancy it?

They used to turn up with the team bus. Don’t know whether that is still the case?

I just think their pace and how quick they will move the ball will just kill us off tbh.. I mean we think we play nice football but the levels are so far apart it's hard to imagine a win here

Sounds more like the missus! V.A.G.

It's when she has to ask goalline technology if it's in or not that's most depressing.

I'm sure I read somewhere that there's no VAR tonight but there is goaline technology.

Last time I went to Watford I left at 2-0 down with a few mins left and we drew 2-2 and I could see all the city fans celebrate as I walked down the street.. Was gutted

3-0 Watford. One sniff of goal in the first half and they’ll shut us out.

Nice try. I still think once fit I think he will be ahead of Bakayoko. Also I am not getting carried away with Kastaneers wonder debut goal. I want to see him over a few games as his second appearance was a bit of a calamity.

It will be interesting tonight. Not getting carried away with this is the best time to play them as our fans got that call totally wrong with Bolton.

I just hope we are brave and continue with the football we have played so far. Not perfect but we have got the results, even Bolton I class as a result because away we didnt get hit with the sucker punch.
