So he spunked our season cause he realised the Allams were knobheads.
That makes Silva a bigger twat in my book.
IMO Silva cracked under the pressure. He did great at home (excl Slumberland) but he failed miserably away.
IMO if we had had the Sloots last year we would have stayed up.

Frying pan and fire...
 
Wonder if Leicester, West Ham or Everton(If they sack their managers) Would be tempted by Silva.

Based on?

Shiny new stadium, sure, but Watford's owners seem a lot more ambitious.

Unless you mean historically, in which case of course West Ham are bigger. That would hardly make a huge difference when it comes to Silva's ambitions going forward though.

Something happened, I'm convinced of that, I don't think it had anything to do with Watford, more likely that just before the Sunderland game he fully realised what an almighty twat he was working for.

I think that is a bit harsh, players lose matches, I can't imagine Marco told them to go out there and lose. I think the Sunderland game we got Pickford on a really good day, and could have got what we needed from the game without him having his purple patch. It just didn't go for us that day, whether it also got to the players the pressure e will never know.

After that the players just gave it up IMO, they knew it was an up hill task and had to go for the win, and was left being done by Palace, and Spurs to be fair would have beaten anyone on the day they played us.

Watford have the potential to have a couple of good seasons in their ramshackle stadium in front of 20k fans, West Ham have the potential to be one of the biggest clubs in the country, they're far bigger by every measure other than current league position.

Potential, sure, but there are plenty of clubs with lovely big stadia and owners with deep pockets milling around in the Championship.

I don't think Silva would leave Watford for West Ham, he'd be looking a rung above.
 
Think it'd be a mistake for Silva to go anywhere this season, might get a reputation as a ship-jumper (if there is such a thing?).

I think he already has that reputation to an extent, it was something our fans questioned when he arrived.

If I were him I'd have no problems ditching Watford for a better option because they'll have absolutely no problem sacking him if results start to drop.

Six managers in the last three years says it all.

True enough but getting sacked seems more honourable than quitting.

All about opinions John :emoticon-0148-yes:
He should have got something from the Soton and Stoke games away when we had them under the cosh.
Anyway it's history...could have, should have mean **** all today.
2 home wins will see us back on track and our favourite Russian will be dancing like this <party>
