    Just had a look at the Leicester squad. Bloody Hell. Why are they not in the automatic promotion places?

    Dyche has said that Murray will be used carefully, and he seems to buy into Graham Taylor's mantra of giving youngsters a little run and taking them out before their form seriously dips. Couple that with the fixture list, and I reckon Murray will play the next two games so that he has a strong feel for playing Saturday-Tuesday every week.

    I think he would then come out for a couple of games, perhaps get a relatively gentle run-out for the reserves or academy, and possibly come back to the first team against West Ham or Direby. Because of the timing of the fixtures, that would maximise the coaching staff's time with him (nearly a month), and minimise the number of games he would miss (two or three).

    I went to John Barnes' first game for Watford reserves. His name was read out as Joe Barnes

    The rest is history.

    I was at that game too - against Swindon - and I'd say you are wrong with that. It was well-documented that he would be playing & a larger than normal crowd were there to check him out.

    Good names doesn't make good team, we've learnt this the hard way this season <ok>
    EDIT: my point kinda been proven tonight http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/16999874

    If we'd been performing the way we have been the last few games, for most of the season, we'd be up there with Southampton, so things are turning around.

    now ive said that, we're gunna lose 4-0 :s

    *blush* thank you BB! Let me help you with your white stick ;)

    He's young and inexperienced...from what i've seen, he's a bit of a ball hogger, but he seems quick, and has ability for sure..hopefully he'll start gelling soon...

    i'll take that ;)

    That's the million dollar question, i'm afraid <ok>

    We can beat anyone on our day (2-0 away at Southampton) but we're also beatable on our day (1-2 home against Bristol).


    We're beginning to look more like the side we and many many others thought we'd be now though.

    Thank you for your vote of confidence. In future I will try much harder or perhaps you might like to write the thread for us.
    Could you write an article in a language other than your mother tongue?

    You are welcome to show us the "Professional" job you can do! Unless you are just being sarcastic... then will let you off!

    Nice work Ak <ok>

    As for the game. Going to be a tough one. Leicester seem to be getting into form now, and should be able to beat any team on their day... But as i can't go against my team, will go for a 2-1 home win!

    Bit like your spelling then. It is, however, head and shoulders above the 'Hornets vs Foxes' attempt. :)

    AK- Hunsa honum, það er alltaf einn hálfviti. Hann er líklega ólæsir og er að taka reiði sína út á þér. Við vitum öll að þú gera a mikill starf og setja a einhver fjöldi af harður vinna í greininni. Verið hver þú ert og segja hvað þér finnst, því sá sem Mind gera málið ekki og þeir sem skiptir ekki huga.

    I think it will be another tough game, but in the end it will be 2-1, another 3 points and a return to winning ways for 'the orns'.

    Great thread as always ak, suspect Score 4's reply was a bit tongue in cheek.

    Nope went with my cousin wolfie/wolfman who is a Watford fan.

    Also may have been well documented but doesn't mean that the announcer just got it wrong.

    Should be a good game, when we met at the Walkers/King Power Stadium earlier this season, Leicester simply looked a class above us. Since then we have much improved, and I think with confidence quite high in the Watford squad I think it will finish 1-1, which is a decent result against a good side.

    Come on you Orns!

    BHD Our word hálfviti is a very good word. There is an english word which is almost the same even after 1100 years and they mean the same thing!

    Google translator is very good.

    því sá sem Mind gera málið ekki og þeir sem skiptir ekki huga
    is better
    því sá sem gaumgæft gera málið ekki og þeir sem skiptir ekki huga
    or perhaps
    því sá sem gaumgæfa ekki máli, og þeir sem máli ekki hafa áhyggjur

    We have many ways to say the same idea. More english I need to practice.
