    The fact that Giorgi Chakvetadze plays for Watford is probably the reason that the club received an invitation to play in the Vitali Daraselia Cup.

    Watford's Academy Twitter (X) and Facebook accounts state that they sent an U-17 team to participate in the tournament.

    I missed this. Anyone know what it is about?

    During the call with #WatfordFC CEO Scott Duxbury, Richard Walker confirmed the club's desire to hold a consultation with fans regarding the potential redesignation of home stands within Vicarage Road Stadium.

    Angelo Ogbonna has agreed a one year deal with Watford with an option to extend a further year. It’s expected that Ogbonna will take a short period – one to two weeks – to establish fitness levels before he can take his place in the Watford side.

    But we ARE a championship club…and I think we are finally looking at bringing in players that can do a job at this level, and not players who could be superstars in two or three years but are not fully ready yet

    We're not doing particularly well in the Away Shirt League...

    Sponsor seems to be the main issue - same with the home kit.

    Mind you they pay a lot of money apparently.

    Watford Under-21s' winning start to the new season was brought to an abrupt halt as they were beaten 4-0 by Birmingham City at home this afternoon.

    They certainly shattered that age-old myth about Italian defenders.

    *Our* first team - and not pinched for a pittance by EPL sides who think they have a right to take the cream of every other club's crop.

    Well I hope we don't emulate 2018/19 - after winning those first five,we lost four and drew one of the next five.
