    Shame we couldn't find a goal against Coventry. Could be looking at a cheeky play off challenge.

    Meh. "Their" next two games are against Grimsby and York. Losing both of those would be far more of a disadvantage than the advantage of two games in hand.

    In a way I'm glad that we're not. It's plain for all Watford and opposition fans to see that Murray is a genius (as is Alex), that Mapps is the best centre back in the league (and as a tribute to Rafa Benitez I'll call that a fact), that with his scoring boots on Deeney is a like-for-like replacement for Danny Graham, that while Hogg needs more time he is far too good to spend his entire career in this division, and so on.

    The less people pay attention to us, the less interest we'll get in these guys in the summer, and the more chance we have of doing something over 46 (or 49) games next season.

    Just home to find us two up - should I stay or go out again?

    I take it we have played them off the park so far?

    That's only if we went for the play offs, but failed :smile:

    I won't give up on it now anyway. If we keep the results positive then you never know.

    And to make the night sweeter, both the scummers and the dirty weeds are losing. ;)

    Sure, but I said a couple of games ago that I didn't think winning every game would be enough, and even GT's teams never went on a run that good.

    We could be four up Bolton, but their defence has been awful.

    I think it's hard to say.

    A few games ago, we were 12 or 13 points behind. Now we're 9 (at the moment anyway), and would be only 7 if we got that win against Coventry. Obviously no point in ifs and buts though...but I think it's premature to write us off. The teams around the play offs aren't all in inspiring form, so keep ours up and you never know.

    Apparently our performance has been 'bitty' at best, it's not exactly resolute..and not our best...but it doesn't matter :)

    437 Watford fans have made the trip :)

    2nd half underway

    Jon Marks does love his fish and chips. Huge portion.

    City commentators think we have only had one chance.

    A third goal would give my bottle a rest. ;)

    437 travelling Horns. <applause>

    I claim victory in the match of the match threads. Frenchie has the last posting on the Bristol board. They must all be at the football match as it is local.

    Only 24 comments on the City match thread. Shame for the person who spent time doing it.
