The rumour thread mentions these two: Steve Leo Belleck A'Bila http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steve_Leo_Beleck Fernando MartÃn Forestieri http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fernando_Forestieri The latter has been commented on elsewhere, but I am not so sure of the former. I know we will be linked with all the Udinese and probably most of the Granada players and anyone in the UK with a vaguely Italian name (Dani Graemi, yes please, and Marvino Sordelli, no thanks) but it is fun to see who the next player linked with Watford will be. While I'm here, best wishes to our famous Italian ice cream man Toni Cotoni after his heart attack. I didn't recognise him either

Spot on vic - I'm still not convinced yet! Whilst many appear worried over whether or not we will retain our family club image, I fear that we may lose our 'English club' image in similar fashion to Chelsea, Arsenal etc. Is that a racist view & should I have voiced it?
It a fair point BB but then its the price of being taken over by men from overseas to an extent who already run 2 clubs with more talented players than we have. Chelsea and Arsenal do it their way because its cheaper to buy non-British than home grown players as Liverpool have found out! I just hope they are able to gel as the Championship will be quite different to what they might be used to.
More 'Rumours' 14 Jul 2012 20:46:53 Watford will sign rangers midfielder Rhys McCabe for a free transfer as he doesn't want to play for the newco and will sign for watford on a 2 year deal David Moyes has already marked his territory ... Won't be happening. 14 Jul 2012 08:55:47 Watford are looking to sign Akos Buszacky after the midfielder did not agree term with QPR, and has now been realesed for a free transfer. Rekon buzz could end up at forest im sure gianni's rubbing his hands together Would be a good signing for Watford. As the hoops sing he is the wight pele This may depend on when the official sale of Mariappa goes through to release funds for his wages.
I'd say Macheda is unlikely. He's in the Man Utd squad to go to South Africa this week, so if he was coming to us on loan, doubt they'd take him. I would have thought we'd want him to link up with the squad as soon as possible.

Watford Observer‏@Observer_Owl Tweets from Daniel Pudil and Matej Vydra seem to suggest their moves to ‪#WatfordFC‬ are done @pupik33 @vydra_92
Apparently we are after Gabbidon who has just seen out his contract with QPR... http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11686/7904565/Chase-on-for-Gabbidon Was at West Ham when Zola was in charge.
Adrian Mariappa Danny Gabiddon one youthful the other experienced, is this worth the change? All is quiet again on the Mariappa to Reading front but as is likely he goes is Dale Bennett ready to step up full time or do we need another older head alongside Tiny?
