    Looks like our season is not a complete loss.

    Looked to me that the goal went out of play but non the less great skill.

    Just been looking at the FA dates .

    Last 8 weekend is Saturday 19 March 2022 etc

    We are due to be playing Everton - who are facing Boreham Wood in the 5th round

    Will potentially have a weekend off then.

    Amid the doom and gloom, it was good to see that the club recognised the work done by this lady.

    Watford FC is delighted to announce the renaming of the Family Stand to the Ann Swanson Family Stand.
    A true off-the-pitch hero during the late 1970s and 1980s, Ann’s work as leader of the Junior Hornets and founder of the Family Enclosure meant she was the key driver in Watford FC becoming ‘The Original Family Club’.

    There must be plenty of younger fans who would have said, who? Work it out. It is a long time since the youngsters gathered in front of the old main stand to receive their birthday cards.

    54 minutes in and losing 3-0 - to the only team below them in the table, who lost all five of their games so far.

    Says it all about our season so far.

    I thought Pochettino was an attacking player ?

    Variously described as a winger or central midfielder. Maybe an experiment to see how he handles defence?

    Final score 3-0.

    Fixture changes

    Wolves away
    Thurs March 10th
    7.30pm

    Saints away
    Sunday March 13th
    2pm

    Potentially Everton home will be off as it’s due to be played on FA cup quarter day which barring a massive shock they will be in.

    Them losing to a non league side, especially given the local associations, and then them getting relegated... I swear I will be as drunk as the proverbial Lord for a week, nay, a month!!

    You might have heard the (brilliant) interchange between F E smith (later Lord Birkenhead) and a crabby judge.
    Smith. "The defendant was drunk as a judge"
    Judge. "Er I think the expression is 'As drunk as a Lord' "
    Smith ( immediatedly) " As your Lordship pleases"

    Etobo's presence doesn't seem to have inspired them - 30 minutes to go and losing 3-0

    Everton game moved to Sunday 20th March .

    But that is FA cup weekend and seeing as they play Boreham Wood next round will probably be in that anyway .

    So date will change again in all probability .
