    I think you’re the only one that did then and that’s including the Watford boss and MR, plus pretty much everybody on this forum MVE was not a RB / RWB, even defensively, up until the point Haji came on and EMC switched over to the right Lats did tuck in a bit but I’m not sure he was meant to..

    DK expects it, MR expects it, the team, including the new signings, expect it, the fans expect it, and 95-99% of experts and pundits who have commented pre-season expect it……

    well kind of proves the point, and of course they will have higher demand, most fans won’t have seen or ever expect to see a big prem team other than once in a blue moon and whilst I don’t outright disagree with you re kids prices per se, unless they are a JSB kids pay this price for ALL...

    how much are AFC Wimbledon tickets normally though? if you look at the percentage increase how does that compare? also, aren’t the kids prices the same as for a category A game in the league?

    yeah I agree, and that’s fair - to be clear I’m fairly relaxed at the minute other than slightly frustrated at not adding to the midfield, but like I’ve said it has still increased expectation amongst fans, and some will believe that, to date, for one reason or another (lack of spend, lack of...

    Match Thread Watford (a) - Sat 14th Sept

    I don’t think it’s entitled, it’s pretty much what Saddle said - DK, and by association MR and the club, have said we’re going to do something, built up that expectation, but then not necessarily actually followed that up by their actions to date

    I think in isolation although not a complete performance it was definitely a decent one away from home, we should’ve been home and dry after the first 45 but they upped their game 2nd half and we didn’t know what to do for a while… I don’t think the problem was the performance on the day, it’s...

    well glad we waited until then to make the changes, rather than do something silly like in the 20 minutes before when they were playing us off the park 🙄

    not making changes when the other team do and up their game - that’s tactically naive I’m not the, or a, manager so it’s not down to me, but on a very basic level make changes to counter the opposition’s

    Match Thread Watford (a) - Sat 14th Sept

    are we ever going to think about leaving anybody up when defending corners? perhaps take the pressure off rather than knowing the ball is going to come straight back in once cleared? Just a thought like

    …and why is Bassette still stood on the touchline?? if he’s coming on don’t give him two minutes and expect him to make a fucking difference! FFS

    Match Thread Watford (a) - Sat 14th Sept

    agree to a point - we are tactically very naive, and not for the first time, BUT the players are also partly to blame as they can also see what is happening and can up their games too… looks like a lot of players can’t get through 65/70 minutes of football without blowing out their arse too, so...

    I hate to say it, but 20 minutes of obvious pressure and yet no change to counter it - why can’t we see what’s going on and do something about it? No ability to change things, whether through lack of options or lack of tactical nouse, yet again

    was just going to say, the bench is definitely stronger, and remember two or three players also out, but it still does look like we haven’t quite built a strong enough squad to challenge seriously this season - might be a different story when RBR is fit and January comes around, who knows...

    I like Torp, and I think he is and will be very good, but I can’t quite work out what he is - I don’t think he’s a DM, so either Eccles will play defensively on his own holding, with Torp and Rudoni in front of him, which scares me a little, or Rudoni will play alongside Eccles maybe, with Torp...
