On Hornet Player yesterday the Fans Forum subject came up. It would seem that both Baz and GT will be there. It was stated that some questions would be put to the panel from Player subscribers, so if there are some that can be put forward in a reasonable format I will have a go. If the same question comes up several times I will try to give that priority, but suspect that to ask Baz where he has got his money from will not get any air time.
Can they put in a decent draft Cider in The Hornets Nest in time for The Posh at home? - I have a feeling that I might need some very strong alcohol that afternoon.
You might well need it w_y but the Forum is on the 8th November. I suppose I could ask why the cider at the Posh game wasn't up to your high standards.
To Dyche- What or who do you blame for the poor start to out season?? To Bas- What first attracted you to our humble club??
What can the club do about the regular 'dropping out' and loss of transmission of Hornet Player? And why, when it happens to us, does it not happen to the opposition player? At least, I suppose, we have a decent commentator - but it would be nice to listen to him uninterrupted.
BB, I have not had any problems with dropping out for a long time now, but I agree it is horrible when it does happen. Do you think we can ask, with a seperate thread if needs be, how many are still suffering from it?
Might be an idea - but then my paranoia may be fuelled when I find out that it's just me who is being targetted!
For Mr B: What was your motive in buying the club? What are your intentions towards the club? Are the finances in place for you to meet the obligations to the bondholders next year? Will you have to sell players to meet these obligations? How will relegation affect your ability to meet future obligations to bondholders?Have you got a business plan for the club in the event of relegation? Are your financial resources sufficient to allow a realistic chance of returning to the Championship, should we be relegated? What has happened to the promise to refit the SE corner ("by October") and what are the plans for the Red Lion? Who, besides your self, is involved in the financial and business management of the club since the departure of Winter and Jones. Are you replacing Jones? Where does our Academy rank in your list of priorities for the club? For Dyche: Has the system of of player recruitment developed by John Stephenson been abandoned? What qualities do you prioritise in recruiting a new player? Why have young players who made a break through into the first team squad last season been marginalised this season? Will any more of our young players be sent out on loan? What will be the impact of the new rules for young player recruitment and training (just agreed by the FA) have on the Watford Academy? Where does our Academy rank in your list of priorities for the club? What is a fair number of games to allow a new manager to demonstrate his aptitude (or otherwise) for the job? Note:I did not ask him where his money came from , how much he has got , who his financial partners are, or why he thinks he can make a success of this business (in which he has no experience) when he has not made a success of any other business. That would be rude.
Is Harry the Hornet a real Vespa, or merely a man in costume? Why do the pie suppliers keep changing? You get used to a particular brand, only for it to be replaced by a new type, which inevitably takes a number of weeks to become accustomed to. Is it true the contract with Wizard Hotdogs was terminated due to a fight over a girl between Graham Simpson and the CEO of Wizard Foods Ltd.? When playing away from Vicarage Road, playing in the 'away' kit, should the nickname The Golden Boys be dropped, so as to dispose any potential confusion with the Watford FC players? Does Laurence Bassini ever get confused with the late Brazilian musician and percussionist, Rubens Bassini? Does Sean Dyche use a model for selecting potential transfer targets? Is this model a skin head, with a hint of ginger? What is the difference between a dwarf and a midget? If a midget bites you, can you contract malaria?
Ask Bas....if there's any chance of the club being sponsored by viagra, as this is the only chance we'll be staying up!!!
I would ask LB whether they interviewed other candidates for the post and if so what qualities did Dyche have over the other applicants and who has sanctioned the signings made so far? Also did Dyche request the funds for 7 or 8 new signings or did Bassini make that claim public and Dyche then had to recruit that volume of new players? The most important thing for me though is Roger's question about the management vacuum left behind after recent departures and if anyone is actually replacing them in what are specialist roles?
Please ask dyche how many useless idiots can sign, has he considered one good player instead of five crap ones
