    First thing, please try and keep on-topic... I believe there is an ignore button if you don't like someone's comments! Of course he wants to wind us up a little. We are going through a bad patch, and if we win a number of games and climb the table he will probably disappear!

    As for the manager - the only thing we can do is get behind him. Zola is gone and we can only speculate why. This guy is now leading our club so deserves our support. He doesn't seem to have had a hugely succesful career to date but he has had a few promotions in his time.

    First and foremost, the defened needs organising then progress from there. QPR themselves work on keeping a clean sheet, and then hope to nick that winning goal and has worked well for them!

    If he can get us to defend and tell the players they can have a shot or two then great!

    Naturally any new manager deserves a chance!

    That is a very good article , giving some background , even insight into the events of the last few days. Well researched, and seems to be based on good sources, written by someone with no axe to grind. Well done the WO,just the kind if journalism we have been missing. Interesting that the Pozzo's and Zola have not been seeing eye -to- eye for a while -- but that was not a crisis till results started going wrong.Now that the project is well and truly launched the Pozzo's can move to the management structure/personality they are more comfortable with.

    Just happened to catch Frank interviewed on TalkShite this evening. I thought he did pretty well, but Mark Saggers was simply simply using it as an opportunity to bash Watford and our foreign owners. TalkShite sounding more and more xenophobic by the day.

    I have to say Dan that in my opinion, command in the box and air IS what makes a goalkeeper.
    Anybody can be trained to stop shots

    Do they do a degree in being a clown?

    You should apply, you'll breeze the course.

    I would agree with this - to be a shot stopper implies good reflexes and acrobatic skills - about 20% of the skills needed to make a good goalkeeper. A complete keeper has a presence in the box (is the King of his goal area). British goalkeepers never seem to reach this stage. Keepers like Oliver Kahn, Peter Schmeichel and Van der Saar inspired a respect/fear from defenders and attackers alike. These class of keepers don't come off their line apologetically or half heartedly but with the conviction 'the ball is mine'.

    I have recently come in to regular contact with a source VERY close to the Watford FC Training Camp. They are very well related to a current Watford player (so well related that they have very similar genes).

    They have informed me that none of the new coaching staff, including Giuseppe Sannino, speak English. Training is interrupted and very sporadic, as one of the senior, foreign players is having to translate everything. Which means this player is having to go between different training sessions to translate.
