i don't like Eddie Howe or bmouth. Dunno why I just don't. I hope we stuff them. There's going to be a minutes applause for Graham Taylor before kick off. Think it's disrespectful myself. A proper decent football man deserves a minutes silence. I agree with greeny think that Marco Silva to the tune of glad all over is a bit ****. Either hi ho silver Jeff beck or Jim diamond . Prefer Jeff beck. Could make that ours rather than copying palace and man city. I'm not picking the team I'm leaving that to the gaffer... City win 2-0.
Agree about the applause / silence. Silence & contemplation for me. Agree about the song. Glad All Over is the ****iest song at any football stadium, whatever words are used. Disagree about the team. I'm having a go, presuming Davies is fit. Jak Meyler Harry Davies Robbo Clucas Jake Hudds Snodge Abel Mason
Just read a few facts about graham Taylor. All his watford players had it written in their contracts they had to do 7 hours community work every week. That's brilliant. Our lot should be doing that.
If Jak starts its a nailed on regulation 4 nowt to us. If, as I suspect, Marshall gets the nod, it'll be 4-3 to us. First proper game, with options, for Marco, I have high hopes.
If Marco has anything about him - It'll be Jak in goal. Glad all over - if it gets any kind of atmosphere generated at the KC then it's a positive for me. Been to livelier wakes. Eddie Howe - Great manager, should have got the England job. He must be good to persuade a current England international at Arsenal that he should play at Bournemouth - Bournemouth FFS. I don't like Bournemouth because everyone talks about 'doing a Bournemouth' - Bollocks to that, it's 'doing a Hull'.
agree i can't STAND glad all over probably a make or break game really if we lose, that' s us done in my opinion and graham taylor is an utter legend, such a nice nice man, loved his punditry too read some tributes and some of the stuff he did was amazing, rang a girl who worked at watford every morning to tell her to get to college because she was thinking of quitting etc a gent and a legend
I like Eddie Howe, think he's done a brilliant job and always comes across well imo, he's also a huge a-ha fan which goes down well in my book. The game, not really sure how it's going to go, Marco certainly sounds like he's going to go all out. I expect Marshall to start, I think he'll have a look at him. I hope he plays the new signings from the start, they could make a difference imo. My personal team would be: Jak Jake Davies Dawson Robertson Evandro Huddleston Mason Snodgrass Hernandez Niasse
With respect, you can **** off with your Glad All Over! And even your Hi Ho Silver Lining. Get on this...
Not easy to predict the team today, Evandro is obviously available according to the clubs website, so both him and Niasse could start. I have a feeling that if we only play 2 centre backs Curtis is likely to be the one that misses out. He is the least comfortable with the ball at his feet, so can see Harry and Daws starting, with Meyler and Robbo as full back. Midfield not an easy one, I think he likes Hudds type of player, Livermore is likely to play, and one of Mason, Evandro or Clucas. Probably Snodders on the right, Hernandez up the middle and Niasse or Dio on the left.
I reckon the two new lads will be 'introduced to the fans' - and may be on the bench. MS hasn't had much of a look at them; they could well be short of match fitness. So - if used, I'd guess he'll sub 'em on in the later stages...
Doing a Watford as they did it before us and still to this day are benefiting from Graham Taylor's wonderous job. If only we could say the same in 30 years time
Out of the three CB Curtis is the one with a bit of pace, Daws and Harry against Wilson might be a problem
