So where to start!?! Well, we were relegated and Roy Hodgson didn't wave to the Watford fans even though he's employed by the club and had just presided over the final nail of relegation being firmly nailed into this seasons coffin. This was because the Watford fans were too far away (those pesky Watford away fans!) where as the Palace fans he was happy to smile and wave to! Then Carl was bitten b...

After the disappointment of the stoppage time defeat at home to Brentford the Hornets travelled to the Etihad to face Guardiola's expensively assembled team that were looking for a 15th consecutive win over Watford. The 5-1 defeat put the supporters in both a reflective as well as forward looking mood. Most would agree the end of the season can't come soon enough and the hope that a fresh start in...

VAR has been called into play and a re-match has been ordered to correct a great injustice. Greg Theaker returns with a need for revenge and a peculiarly large amount of insight into buying cricket bats in the High Wycombe area. Carl mainly wonders how he got into all of this and why we keep asking him questions about Tommy Mooney! This and not a lot more in the World v Carl Season One FInale! Lea...

So a difficult end to a difficult week. The aftermath of the Supporters Committee mishandling is still raw but perhaps a result in the latest must win game with the added incentive of not suffering a record breaking 10th straight home defeat would pick up the support. Well we'll never know because having missed two clear opportunities in the 93rd minute, Watford conceded in the 95th minute. The se...
