    Not sure how I feel about Saturday 

    This time ish we went to Sheff Utd Chris Wilder new
    manager bounce we all were negative and got the result 

    Giving this chap another game could be fine but NJ needs to set them up to have a go

    They are fragile so have a go get a goal early and it could be a Northampton promotion season, be too defensive and it will be Sheff Wed away in April

    Yup - be absolutely just us to go there and be the result that keeps this guy in a job for another week.  Looked at his history last night.  Apart from getting Empoli promoted to Serie A a few years ago, he’s literally got nothing other than Italian nationality that warrants the job at Watford.  He’s out of his depth, should be managing in Serie C or Malta based on his recent record, but wouldn’t it be just us to give him the win, only for that to be reprieve and he’s sacked by the end of the month

    Sounds like that’s a recipe for us to get payback for that 5-0 debacle under one of Roland’s managers whose experience was also  out of depth for the division we were in.
  • Vardy with a very Vardyesque goal.
  • 1 - 1. Wolves has been pretty rubbish until Walker made a mistake. 

    Burnley are really going to struggle this year with their defence.

    I think Burnley are best described as Fragile!! Out of interest as I didn’t watch a lot of Burnley last season, how many of the current side were playing prem football?, I know not winning becomes a habit but find it crazy how soft those calibre of players are. It is so easy to sleepwalk straight down to league 1.

    The majority of tonight’s starting line up were playing for them/another PL team last season

    Two terrible defensive errors by Burnley tonight, plus their goalie threw the ball into the net.

    Which we didn't capitalise on. We snatched a last minute equaliser.

    Hope we don't make the same mistake tomorrow. We need to be pressing from minute one tomorrow. Go back to Curbs last words before kick off on 5th Dec 1992......shots.

    Why ?

    Wasn’t it them that pulled down Roland’s netting that he or his young lady had installed in front of the Covered End on their last visit to The Valley

    I was watching the game, it was when they'd ballsed up in defence again for Wolves' second goal, there was no deep meaning to it.

    The only consolation today is that neither Lincoln nor Cardiff won today, after both were 2-0 up at HT.

    And yes,  i am aware of who Lincoln drew against, but our survival is more important.

    Just watching Sky and they go to the game at Norwich where they are losing to Portsmouth.

    They then say if they lose it will be six defeats in a row in all competitions.

    Whoever is playing them next week is in for an easy ride!!!!

    When we played them in the EFL Cup, we caught Doctor Tottenham disease from them.

    Apart from the 3-0 win over Oxford & 2-0 win over Leicester, both in Feb.

    I may sometimes not be the brightest but doesn't February come after Boxing Day?
