Match Thread: Watford v Blackpool

"Nearly but not quite for Watford at the moment".

Eustace tries to lob keeper who is off his line, but puts it wide.

 

Sounds like we are definitely trying to get back into this game! COYH!

 

Britt getting ready to come on. Yeates takes one touch too many when he has a chance.

Watford getting a head of steam up now.

What the hell, Phillips well off side, not given. Penalty.

 

Oh well, play-offs next season anyone? as long as we beat Baadiff!

 

Murray comes off, bringing Prince on.

 

Was it a penalty?

 

Hogg given a yellow card, was this his second one or not? Oh well.

 

It should have been a free kick to Watford for offside.

 

OK - I will settle for the score draw.

 

"Blackpool are well organised and it is difficult to get the ball off them."

Corner to the Horns...wasted, it goes out before coming back in.

 

16314 attendance.

Good pressure from the Horns trying to get back in the game.

 

Good football from Watford...they haven't given up.

 

Prince really has let the side down with some very poor crosses.

5 added mins.

 

Since the second goal Blackpool have dropped back and blocked off mid-field.

 

From what I could hear we have been out thought by Blackpool and certainly the ref did little to help.

That should be the end of play off talk.

 

Well in all honesty I prefer Championship football - thanks for the commentary Monsieur Francais Hornet - cold and wet in Newcastle - I imagine warmer and drier over the Channel.

 

So do I prefer it. Sunny and warm here, just right for another glass of vin rouge.

 

We have done well this season , shame our faint hope has been put out today , now can we build towards next season with a degree of stability and can we recall the kids on loan and give them a go ! Poor old Britt put on when 2 down with 15 mins to go , How does that help ? He should have been on at HT for Yeates , Prince at HT as well

 

Prince really does need to learn how to take free kicks and corners. His crosses kept hitting the first defender, something they say you cannot do.

 

I think it is an Indian takeaway tonight with no mention of football - the missus does not like football, understand it, get it or want to get it. I don't discuss football when we lose so should be a harmonious evening - enjoy the French sun and wine!
