Every bit as much as people bang on about 1966 😆

That image should help to sell tickets in the away end when we play Real Madrid in the Champions League. 👍

I wrote to Jimmy Hill when I was eight to inquire about becoming a ball boy. He replied, saying that I had been put on the waiting list and he would let me know when I reached the top. I will be 70 in a few months time and I’m still waiting. 😆

Call me an old cynic - and I probably am - but Trump went up in the popularity stakes after the assassination attempt. I wonder if this could just possibly be a staged event now he is behind in the polls. I wouldn’t put it past him or his supporters.

I would like to see a bit more of Bassette. He hasn’t played enough for me to come to any sort of conclusion about him, even a provisional one, but I do like what I have seen so far. I even wonder if he could be a good attacking midfielder, driving into the box from a slightly deeper position...

Wouldn’t we all and we may well be. The point is that you deride Watford for only beating teams like Derby, who currently are on a good run with three wins. We have one league win, thanks to a very late winner against Oxford who are widely tipped for relegation.

You say that as if Millwall, Stoke and Derby are poor teams. Millwall are only a point behind us and Stoke are above us in the table having beaten us. Derby have nearly twice as many points as we have and are only out of the playoff places on goal difference. I’d love us to be where Derby are.

@Cov kid 55 I think Lati is a perfectly decent player and his versatility is a real asset to us.

I have just got home and seen the team. The BBC have us down as playing 4-4-2, assuming that Lati will be at CB. They could be right of course but I wonder if it will be 4-4-2 with Lati in midfield, which I would prefer.

I’m certainly keen for a good performance but equally we need to start picking up points soon. Watford are favourites for the win, so I would be happy with a draw.

For a start he seems to be bearing even bigger grudges than last time, probably because of his perception that he was cheated out of victory in 2020 and the multiple criminal charges and convictions. I think he is even more dangerous and unpredictable than before.

Trump was surely only ahead of Biden because of the latter’s advancing senility. Trump is so appalling that I would like to think that almost any half-decent candidate could beat him. Harris only being slightly ahead isn’t inspiring. Hopefully she will win but I’m not putting my house on it.

It will be disastrous for the world if Trump wins. I don’t think Harris is a particularly strong candidate - a decent one would surely be miles ahead in the polls - but she simply has to win.

I hope you’re right! 🤞

This will be a difficult game for us, away from home to a team 14 places above us in the league table. I’m praying that we can find some better form and sneak a narrow win but I will happily settle for a point.

Wood is bowling as fast and as well as ever. The problem of course is his fitness. We need to keep Wood, Stone and Archer in the frame for test cricket in the hope that at any particular time at least one of them is fit enough to play. I accept that Wood is moving towards the end of his test...

Our field placings are too aggressive. I appreciate the need to take wickets but we cannot afford to keep leaking runs at this rate.

We need McAllister and Strachan back to control midfield.
