    Watford throw near our LH corner flag, bobbled around our box, but Sissoko, shot wide
  • That lad has got a serious throw 
  • Watford growing into the game, and have a bit of control the last few minutes.
  • Important header from Ramsay, ball falls to their man on the edge of the area and his shot is shanked well wide.

    Irritating that TC stood off the right back.and let him.clear it just then..he's got to put the block in

    Gawn Edwards
  • Oh TC... Why did you just cut inside?
  • Bless your heart Lloyd but leave that for Doc
    Yeah the effort was a bit too close to the Goalkeeper in the end... Can the Cameras stop lingering on the Managers for an age though?
    I find myself thinking of the Not the Nine O'clock News song Kinda lingers...

    Don't know why.

    Great bit of play from Edwards, TC gets on his pass but turns into the defence 
  • Oooh TC went the wrong way there from a nice through ball, but open play stuff is good so far, but this ref needs to up his game, Watford getting away with niggling pushes and trips far too much

  • Given the chasing that Kelman and TC are having to do already, it feels more sensible to start Leaburn / Oloafe with their own physicality.

    As have almost every other side against us since the dawn of time.

     Refs have been reminded it's a contact sport for this season so we should see more physicality. 

    Some of these challenges have been in the grey area so far. Others have been obviously missed.

    Jeez, how the hell are you supposed to read the names on the big screen?



    I've got no chance of seeing which player is which number so no idea who my scapegoat is.

    Oh well ...

    Fcuking hell Fox ...

    Scoreboard looks a big improvement on the last one.

    Not quite got used to who everyone is yet. Great interception on the edge of our box
  • They got another new manager?! Bloody hell Watford. 
  • Brilliant interception from Carey on the edge of the box... Underrated him from Pre-Season so far today

    Good start for 3 of the old lot - Docherty - Ramsey - Edwards
  • So poor from doc

    Bell is worrying me a bit, needs to be more willing to hoof to get himself out of trouble

    That was Carey, really calm pass back from Coventry to Kaminski too.

    I think the opposite. Chase down the defenders with pace and effort and then give them a completely different set of problems to deal with by bringing on two big, aggressive monsters once they're tired
  • Lino's are just a waste of time nowadays...
  • Phew... Got worried that Bell wouldn't win a FK then, played a dangerous game

    Poor pass from Doc springs an attack but we have numbers back, instantly ready to deal with it. 
  • Need to switch on a bit
