    Steve Hodge sold the Maradona match shirt for 7m earlier this year, now the referee is selling the match ball!

    Nobody would believe the hand of God was worth so much!

    (Btw, I still blame Peter Reid for not taking him out during his run for the winning goal! :emoticon-0140-rofl: )

    I think he is right

    When we were in the old 1st Division the gap to the 2nd Division was not as huge as it is now and when both leagues had 22 teams the price of relegation was not as huge

    If they reduce the Prem to 18 clubs there will be no place for clubs our size like Norwich, Bournemouth etc

    It would be nice if Gino Pozzo were to give an interview where he discusses Watford rather than just speaking to the Italian media about Udinese. Andrew French (Watford Observer) has been trying to arrange an interview with him, but he has not given an interview since 2012. What is the rationale behind his decisions (such as sacking so many head coaches and not strengthening some areas of the squad)? What are his plans for the future relating to Watford?

    I presume there must be something or they wouldn't change him surely?

    I suspect he will probably think his statement about getting rid of Edwards was due to results and performances was enough.

    Means he'll be sacking Bilic soon then if things don't pick up.

    I see Lineker has had a dig at us again...

    Maybe they never looked at the video footage, which is apparently inconclusive.

    Thinks he's being clever with his “even Watford don’t sack ’em this quickly” claim - but he isn't. Or he obviously has never heard of Billy McKinlay, who was sacked after 8 days...

    Kabasele picked up a hamstring injury in the moments before Blackpool scored their second goal at the weekend, while Sierralta had recovered sufficiently from a groin strain to come on as a substitute but then sustained a hamstring injury of his own and had to come back off again.

    Meanwhile Hause continues to be sidelined by a knee injury.


    “Kabasele has a hamstring injury, he won’t play tomorrow,” said Bilic.


    “We conceded the second goal at Blackpool partly because Kabasele got injured and he stopped running. They made the cross in that moment and scored.


    All those nasty supporters who abused Kabs should reflect..................................

    Rumour going round that Louza as been banned for 6 games... I do hope it is wrong... and surely it would be published when decided in any case.....

    Whilst I dont condone Louza's actions it was hardly career threatening compared to the stamp on Aspirlla's shin that could have been.
    Why can't that be reviewed after the game?

    I think you missed out the word 'alleged'. He has denied it, and Bilic says the video is inconclusive.

    But you're right about the stamp on Asprilla - and, from memory, there was also one on Louza.

    If there was conclusive video evidence then it would have been eleventy times around the internet. Swansea are sh*t stirring imho.
