They bullied us at the Liberty with their big powerful midfield and our midgets. Sure that was the game where Stamanic came on for his first game and was slamming into them all, booked quickly as well. Or maybe it wasn’t that game

My son just asked me a very good question… why are Watford nicknamed the hornets when they have a Moose on the front of their badge?!

Something to do with Elton John stinging everybody’s bum when they sat down I think

Good afternoon all, just settling down on the sofa to watch the match.
I'm a bit concerned about the lack of creativity in midfield, and I think in his appearances so far, Ward has shown he's strong but slightly off the pace. I hope Watford's pacey players don't show him up. We will see.

That Louza guy, nasty piece of work.

Nice to see Dan Watts on the bench. Was highly rated for ages but hasn’t really kicked on.

Well hes up against tom ince, who not far off 35 himself, so hopefully hes lost a yard or two.

Yeah, not a naturally attacking midfield. Louza is often a handful in the midfield, so maybe they’ll cut him off. Fk knows. We’ll soon find out.

Why a moose on the badge, have moose ever been native to the north West of London?
