You should be banned for that. I'll give you benefit of the doubt that you don't understand the offensiveness of your choice of words.

I reported this and it’s been removed but I’m not sure how much longer we need to put up with the constant offensive crap from him. Enough is enough.

It did feel like Watford gave up by the end.

Their mascot spent most of the last quarter sitting by their drum looking miserable. Inasumuch as you can tell what a furry hornet is feeling.

To be fair their mascot did applaud us at the end, although there was no one else left in the ground by that point.

After the second goal they dropped their pressing and ran out of ideas

Stamenic class again, a deserved win. I was chuckling on the way back to the car thinking of someone thinking Sheehan used to watch him play for Olympiacos and Forest reserves in his spare time

Brilliant performance particularly in the second half, Vipotnik visibly annoyed Galbraith didn’t thread that ball through to him when on the edge of the box, if he would have then I think that’s a 3-0 away win.

Onto Sheff Wed!!!

I thought today was an excellent result.

We lacked quality and composure at times but our energy and desire was second to none.

We won that because we wanted it more. And you can’t ever criticise that. There is no more that the team can do.

Incredibly sad to see a team not pad possession stats playing it back and forth between the centre halves for two thirds of the match indeed

Do you think we’ll bring (m)any in now? Not sure I see any point in more loans and the permanent signings would need to improve the first XI to justify it IMO. Would prefer more thought out decisions after the manager has had another 3 months with the current players.

Probably need a CB to cover plus this Walta signing that nobody really expected and we will be fine. Signing Walta allows us to push Widell or Yalcouye out wide if needed.
Will be interesting to see if a striker comes in or will they just use Cullen as cover which again helps with Walta coming in. Wales wasn't in the matchday squad so looks like he could be out on loan.

We’ve played pretty well in some recent away games and lost, so I’ve got no issues that we were poorer on the ball today and won.

Lots of ways to win games but as you say if you run further and smarter than the opposition then you’ll win more games than you lose in this league. There’s a clear idea being implemented and the players throughout the squad seem to be buying into it.

Have you no experience of Daps mun?

We need
10 strikers
4 fullbacks
5 No 10s and
6 wingers

Minimum.

We have no forward if Vipotnik gets injured. I’m sure we will bring one in.

We don’t have the individual quality that some teams have across the board so it’s the way to win. And it allows those with a bit of quality to win the game for us. Like Stamenic today who I think is a very good player.

Put it this way, if that is an adult I can’t quite believe it.
