Shame but not for us.

Bah

 

[Gint11]

Without getting carried away, we should be getting something from this game based on form. Love a win, take a draw.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

They’ve got injuries to quite a few players

 

[Frostie]

They have such a weird team. Some really good players & some miles off it imo. I think Cleverley is doing pretty well all things considered but I can't think of a better time to play them, they're in disarray.
We should be winning this.

Got a good mate who's Watford through travelling with England

They absolutely love Cleverley and for all their manager upheaval over the last few years he is the one who the fans have all properly united behind

Also said that any manager is only a few losses away from the sack at Watford and he fears for him if they get beat Saturday, and if they did make the change things would get completely toxic towards the owners

 

[alexccfc99]

I do fancy us here anyway to be fair

3-1 Cov and a ending the evening in the top half

 

[Skybluekyle]

Watford always have a load of random foreign players i know nothing about and at least a couple of them end up being really good. Never really know what to expect from Watford really.
Really like Chakvetadze when i've seen him.

Yeah, thought Chakvetadze ran the second half in the away game, to be fair, was happy to see him go off.

Although, I think Rudoni controlled the first in the same game.

Decent recent record against them. The 2-3 lose was Hamer's 30 yard header and the last game before Robins changed the formation to shore us up and grind out results.

The last time we won at home was 2011, with Juke/McSheff scoring for us and Eustace (and Andi Weimann!) playing for them.

Thoroughly enjoyed the chaos of our last 2 home games against them. 2-0 to us this time.

Draw then

 

[CV22SBA]

Not sure what allocation Watford took but they only have 300 left so should be another big crowd.
I have a good feeling our run will continue on Saturday.

That 2011 game I think was in the Andy Thorn honeymoon period

Going to give them hornets whatfor

 

[Hincha]

Based on their injuries, recent form, and away record - we really should be winning this game

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Only game I’ve seen us win against them was I think a 3-1 win where a certain Ashley Young scored an absolute screamer.

Didn't Willo Flood score in that one?
I also saw us hammer them 4-0 the season before we were relegated. That was a great home season.

Correct he did. Young’s goal was one of the best I’ve ever seen at the ground.

I turned up late for this one and missed the opening goal.

No wonder we never picked you again.

Rumours spreading that Cleverley has been sacked.....

Rumours spreading that Cleverley has been sacked.....

No way

 

[edgy]

This is all sounding far too good.

Nailed on loss.

Feck off no way

Rumours spreading that Cleverley has been sacked.....

Where?

 

[edgy]

"Spanish coach Pacheta agrees to join Watford on the bench in England's Second Division, as revealed exclusively"

Watford fans thinking this guy will replace Cleverley.

 

[Lamps]

Where?

Watford

Watford fans thinking this guy will replace Cleverley.

That feels like the sort of appointment they love to make.... and then fire 3 months later

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Yup Cleverley on the verge of being sacked. Absolute nut case club that’s washing dirty money.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

 

[Chris1987]

Watford owners are utter nut jobs. I sincerely hope that Cleverley lands at a club which appreciates his abilities. As well as being a talented young coach he's a proper decent bloke.

[covcity4life]

[Tommo1993]

Must win

FFS that’s all we need, a new manager bounce.
