You mean others think Queen are meh too?

They are far, far worse than 'meh'. They are an abomination. An absolute embarrassment to our species.

I agree with SE.

Same. They belong at Butlins. Cabaret shite.

Butlins is like a holiday camp compared to where they deserve to be.

IF we cant make progress with the owners we currently have (who are throwing millions at the club each season) what chance have we got to be successful?

Saturday was an awful performance, hopefully Steve will remember this in the summer and show a ruthless streak and get rid of quite a few.

Agree, the entrance 'music' is dire and not in the least bit inspiring. Why has the club stuck with that crap for so many seasons? Most people hate it. Why not change back to Queen's We Will Rock You? We used to play that in the 90s & early 2000s.

Paging Risso...

I find it hard to believe that we all support the same club sometimes.

Might as well go back to the A Team Theme tune from out 86-87 relegation season! Even as a 13 year at the time i got the irony of that, hilarious.
I’ve said it before but I loved it when we came out to the Hurricane Smith number. Not everyone’s cup of tea I know but it worked for me

I worry he would recruit MON style replacements on huge wages

Every time I have seen Watkins this season toil up front and take 2, 3, 4 extra touches to absolutely guarantee that his shot will be blocked, I've thought "play Ings"

Every time I've seen Ings running around like he's pulling a tractor tyre behind him, I've thought "play Watkins".

What about Bailey or Traore up top? Rather than a holdup forward, they'd be on the shoulder of the last man looking to get onto throughballs at pace. Coutinho is more than capable of threading through such passes, and if Buendia can learn to pass a ball without scuffing it, he can too.

Either of those two up front would have to play as a front two with a physio as the other forward.

Just saw the Ings pen decision on SSN. Fucking hell.

The panel saying VAR wouldnt get involved because it wasnt clear and obvious. I will remember that next time we're having a 5 minute check at Old Trafford.

They didn't show it on the highlights but they've got it here on Watford's website:

https://www.watfordfc.com/video/match-highlights/highlights-aston-villa-0-1-watford-premier-league-202122#play

How the fuck is that not a penalty, absolutely nailed on, all day long.

We didn't play well, but score that after two minutes and their game plan of 11 men behind the ball and breaking on the counter plus time wasting at every opportunity goes out of the window, and we'd probably end up 3-0 winners.

If it wasn't a penalty then why was it a corner seeing as their guy didn't touch the ball?
