    He will be contracted to us until end of June, Watford probably said "don't officially start until July, we won't have to pay city anything then."

    He will spend the time watching DVD of their games and scouting, and making recommendations

    My wife has a waterproof gilet... WTF is that about?!
    To get any use out of its properties she'd also have to carry two small umbrellas to keep her arms dry!!!

    There are worse things in life, Den.

    Infact, I'd say that in the greater scheme of things a waterproof Gilet was fairly harmless.






    Or summat.

    Marco Silva's comments on his appointment..

    "Firstly I really like the approach of the board and the owner," he said. "They showed me the project and I like the ambition. The club want to improve for the next seasons and this is what I try to fight for in my career as well – to always improve, to do a good job and to ensure a good connection between the manager and the club.




    "The ambition this club has is really important to me. I'm excited. It's a good challenge and I'm really happy."

    I was going to go with 'fairly 'armless' but I didn't want to flag up my only Gilet joke too obviously.


    Cos I've got no follow up to speak of.



    The two tiny umbrella solution I like but I wonder...


    Given that you have an umbrella in each hand, do you cover right arm with left hand umbrella and left arm with right hand umbrella in an arms crossed stylee or right arm with right hand umbrella and left arm with left hand umbrella in a more arms straight out in front of you arrangement?


    Or maybe just stay inside when it rains?


    Problems, problems, problems.



    Or summat.

    That's because he's the better player. Some of our fans need to have a look at some stats.

    Did it go to the advisors or straight to the chairmen?

    The stats say Gibson is better at passing and gets dribbled past less but other than that Maguire wins in everything that really counts. Can't find out which recorded the fastest speed though.

    I listened to Watford's CEO or someone being interviewed on radio 5. Spoke very well. Thought then, Silva would be a good fit. Not surprised and I would expect them to be up there next season. He might of course have to ditch that zonal marking bollox or get some defenders who know what they are doing.

    I really wouldn't be surprised if he went for Rannochia, fits in with them looking to Serie A.

    I didn't think Rannochia was half as good as many did. Always a second away from having a balls up.

    Precisely, but Inter are desperate to get rid, a loan or transfer fee will be cheap and the owners will like an Italian international on their books.
