Watford fan I knows is distraught and thinks they may get caught in relegation fight because of this.

Another absolute crazy decision, if true.

What a statement by Watford

 

[Frostie]

What an appalling statement.
Sounds like it's nailed on that Saturday will be his last game.

 

[Tommo1993]

Weirdo club

What a statement by Watford

Frank Lampard: ‘Hahaha yeah right we’re really going to sack him just before a game, wouldn’t be very CLEVER would it haha’

‘But nah seriously as soon as the final whistle goes we’re appointing Alan Pardew.’

What a statement by Watford

Going to look silly if they get rid just after aren't they

 

[Captain Dart]

Is it time to practise the 'Sacked in the morning' chant?

 

[fernandopartridge]

Going to look silly if they get rid just after aren't they

Given their antics over the years I don't think they could really care less.

 

[shmmeee]

Hope their players don’t like him and try and save his job.

I have always had Frank Lampards Coventry as my second favourite team due to my appreciation of the music of Frank Lampards The Specials.

And as a keen historian I’m fascinated by the surviving ruin of Frank Lampards Coventry Cathedral after the bombing of the Luftwaffe ( at the point of writing not yet belonging to Frank Lampard ) .

But also saddened by the demise of the great Frank Lampards Coventry motor industry that gave rise to the historic marques of Franks Lampards Jaguar and Frank Lampards Triumph.

Watford are 8th. What the hell? Seems bizarre unless they are bringing in Klopp

Shows how average the league must be for a team that's taken 4 points from the last 6 games.

 

[WestEndAgro]

clean sheet a priority, the rest will look after itself, unbeaten at home under Frank so keep that run going.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

Not got the best of home records against Watford, last beat them at home 2011. Settle for another 1-0 again

Shame, couldn't give a fig about Elton Johns Watford

That long ago ?

A bit misleading given there have only been 3 home fixtures since then, all draws.

I remember that great pass back one of their players did to their keeper only the keeper wasn't there and the ball rolled into the net

excellent

4 fixtures actually and yes all 4 were draws, a win in 2011 yes and lost 3 on the bounce at home before that from 2005 to 2011. So not the best recent record in the last 20 years.
W 1
D 4
L 3

Hardest I've laughed at a game. Whoever was in charge of the big screen had a LOL as well. Loads of replays of it after.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Depends which Watford turn up they always seem to have massive strong players.

Im going for a 2-1 win.

Was this the game after the famous whatsappgate ?

No clue. I just remember the LOLs.

That was before the away match last season.

 

[Gibbo]

The last two Watford home games we have had high scoring draws that we should have, quite frankly, lost. 2-0 down and deservedly so, but they failed to close us out and Godden and Sheaf got us back into it. Last year they were the much the better team in a 3-3 draw. I'd like us to score the goals again, but not let any in this time.

They will bring their usual away fan contingent of less than 1k..might even be as bad as 500 fans. Anyone know how many they sold.

They sold 1982 last year and will have a similar number tomorrow

 

[clint van damme]

Very confident for tomorrow, not a good feeling. Much prefer pessimism and nagging doubt.

Not sure what allocation they took but they only had 300 tickets left yesterday morning.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Worth remembering we got a draw at Sunderland with MR having just been sacked, Collins in goal and Lati in midfield. Got to be on it

We’ve noticed.

Surprised you've noticed anything with Kings buttocks covering your eyes!

 

[ptr]

Massive if we win this. Have said all season that we need to win 3 in a row to turn it around. Big ask though as we know what this league is like - mental.
