Bit of a challenge, but to be honest if the game isn’t close and/or we are playing crap I’ll just leave. I fear that for the odd occasions that we might have a slender lead Ainsworth will do his stupid time wasting cheats without understanding that it will all be added on at the end, so we’ll have an extra 15 minutes to cling on.

Loyal fan….respect to you
 
My point is we haven't replaced them ! The players that have come in aren't Championship level, and haven't cost a penny. Ainsworth is almost certainly gonna have wanted to bring in players he wanted to try and play to whatever system he intends to play, but hasn't been given a penny to bring them in. Warburton had trouble with the board when they refused to sanction a transfer he desperately wanted when we were in the mix for the top 6 and we know how that ended. The snake left unceremoniously when we were right up there, yes to go to Rangers , but maybe he knew we weren't gonna spend a penny to strengthen our chances. Things had started to turn grim before he left, and the players on that pitch were far better than most of these. The players are ****, we keep saying Chair or Field are good players but how often do they dictate and win games ? The rest are just hopeless, and if we can't spend anything to replace them, what can anyone do to stave off the inevitable ?

I agree completely, however...
It is not like the owners are rinsing us, if they were stealing £1m every week from us I'd be angrier at them. From what I hear though they are losing shed loads just to keep us afloat.

All in all... we're ****ed.
 
Get your point now, and totally agree. Lose all your best players and replace them with mediocre players (at best) and it will never end well. Such a disappointing situation and start to the season.

As Clive pointed out recently on LFW, one of the few attractions of GA was that he knew the players in the lower leagues who had the potential to step up a level. But how many players have we recruited so far from the lower leagues....?
 
I love the wat the Twatford commentator says how amazing their team have been….errr no mate, we’re total ****e and could make Staines Town look good
Tbf we'd be saying the same..Watford won't g
Positives from the day……..We only lost by 4 and kept a clean sheet in the second half.

Negatives from the day…….Everything else
They'll be plenty more days like this one :(
