There was a dreadfully rainsodden one down there under Coleman we lost .
Think it was a tad controversial losing the game that never should have gone ahead,and possibly we agreed to play it when we didn't have to.

Thorn released him and he ended up in the non league cycle

He played for Cov United as an outfield player I’m pretty sure

Joined them from Sphinx, centre back

Unchanged team (if possible) 1-2 win.
Come on the boys!

Wasps have gone, Hornets next!

Brentford after?

Hopefully the virus/bug will be completely out of their systems and the players are fully ready to go.
If we're on our game as we were last night and with the extra fitness being bug free will give us , we'll give them a proper hard time

 

[EalingSB]

Surely if he's fit, McFadzean has to come back in? Been immense recently. Defence got away with a couple of errors on Tuesday - one a massive one that should have produced an equaliser. Doyle to drop out. Touch wood Hamer and O'Hare can start, too.

Coming down for this one, day on the lash in Watford

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

They’re a good squad but if they lose tonight we’re 6 points behind with 2 games in hand

 

[robbiethemole]

Came from 1-0 down, winning 2-1 now

 

[Philosoraptor]

Watford (1576) Vs Coventry City (1458)

 

[JulianDarbyFTW]

Don't have a good feeling about this one. Think the effects of the virus will show, with fatigue and underperformance hitting home. Don't like to let head rule heart, but taking off my sky blue specs I can see this one being 3-0 Watford.

 

[Covcraig@bury]

A draw away would be good BUT …. My £10 is going on 3-1 away win .

 

[Dimi_Konstantflapalot]

Spectacular handball by Trevor Benjamin for the opener

 

[robbiethemole]

these are a big, strong team, especially at corners by the look of last night, are we bringing Fadz back in to counter that or do we leave the defence as it is?

Don't they have a few of their Italian branch players from Serie A in the side too?

 

[wingy]

Bastard's in yellow and black!!

 

[Rugby Sky Blue]

It's a good opportunity to capitalise on their lengthy injury list. Watford seem to be doing the business recently but they have loads of injuries. We could get something from Watford.

 

[ccfcmad1]

Point would be brilliant

 

[MalcSB]

That was handball, surely?

Edit - beaten to it by Dimi

 

[no_loyalty]

I’ve put my last tenner on an away win, so they best not let me down.

Watford 0 City 1 (Vik)

 

[Tile Hill Phil]

Last time in about the 80's in Tuesday night cup game 2-2 I think.

Was that the League Cup quarter final in 1981. Great night that was didn’t leave Cov till 5 o’clock. Me and two mates charging down the motorway in his Ford Capri got in just in time. Think Gordon Milne ran over to us at the end to clap the fans

 

[Covkid1968#]

Yes if memory serves me correct

I seem to remember Doyler talking about it in a podcast as that game was due to be his debut

Cov lads turned up and the OB said it was called off but couldn’t tell them why because the Utd loanees family hadn’t been told…then they went on the piss and caused general mayhem around Watford. Those were the days

 

[wingy]

Might need to be well on our guard on Saturday.
Referee Lee Daughty in charge has reffed 12 games so far this season,producing 53 yellows and 3
reds.
He was in the middle last night for Burnley v Rotherham gave what appeared a harsh red for 2 yellows and played 13 minutes Fergie time.

 

[higgs]

2-2 Max with a brace

Apparently Gus is 50/50 and Fadz hasn't trained since Tuesday. Think we might see a few changes tomorrow. Do we risk Vik, O'Hare and Hamer or keep them fresh for the Wigan match. I'd play Eccles in midfield for Hamer, Kane in at RWB. Palmer for O'Hare.

 

[Skybluedownunder]

Oh fuck Davis is back

Watford receive significant player boost ahead of tomorrow's showdown with Coventry City

Watford head coach Slaven Bilic has revealed that Keinan Davis will be included in the club's match-day squad for tomorrow's showdown with Coventry City.

Snap him early doors.

Worked when Blackburn did it to Hamer second half.

 

[Seaside-Skyblue]

I think we keep them playing, I agree players need a rest at times but say we nick a win, it breeds confidence. They'll have a long enough break for world cup. Lose and heads could go a bit and puts more pressure on the Wigan game.

All train strikes have been called off.

I swear they are taking the piss, I booked a hotel instead which I can't cancel. Night out in Watford then.

They are piss takers but sounds like still shortages tomorrow as the strike cancelled so late.

Despite Saturday's walkout being cancelled, Network Rail said "the very late notice means that services for tomorrow cannot be reinstated and will remain extremely limited".

I gave a spare disabled carers ticket £10 pick up at the ground

It's a good opportunity to capitalise on their lengthy injury list. Watford seem to be doing the business recently but they have loads of injuries. We could get something from Watford.

They've still got a shed load of top players. Rest Hamer, unless he's 100%. Need strongest side for Wigan - that's where we need the 3 points.

 

[Bad Boy]

Think of them as just another pointless breed of insects and smash them.

Great day out that was, OB didn’t have a clue that day!!
