    Just back from the game. QPHa looked pretty handy, but we seemed very...languid at times. Interesting to watch Diamanté...really not sure he's going to cut it in the Prem. Decent evening though and would go again.

    Diamante is unfit or more likely his legs have 'gone'. In his only half of football in the Prem he was blowing after just a few minutes and was unable to track back.
    Doubt he will play in the 1st team unless for injuries.

    8 mins of overtime. We were leading 3-0 and lost 3-4 with Brentford scoring 3 after 90 mins up!

    Did anyone go to the Fans forum.

    Guess it was quite a happy one (and light-hearted)

    No more questions about the new stand for example!

    QSF He talked about his English leaders singling out Troy and Ben Watson. He claims to be shy. Had to leave at half time to go and play five a side.

    SD The debt to the bond holders will shortly be paid off. Possible plans to expand the ground, but not next summer. Two new screens are to be installed, possibly before the next home game. Many serious offers had come in for Troy that had not be entertained.

    TD He has moved to Northwood and it is so quiet there he remains very calm these days. When asked about moving on, he said that the way that the players are treated is top class. They fly to games, the hotels are the best, the food is top notch. Why would he downgrade? Troy's comments about Allan Nyom. He's the worst in training. No one wants him on their team. He can't even touch his toes in
    yoga. But in games, he's brilliant. He's like Lloyd Doyley, doesn't look elegant, but nobody gets past him.

    Taken from a report by Frances Lynn.

    Really thought that Deeney had a chance of getting in the England squad. They are only friendlies after all.

    Only 3 strikers - who knows if he has a Vardy type run of form.

    Cannot rely on Sturridge or Walcott to be fit back up.

    Quique Sanchez Flores says Watford will have to consider signing another goalkeeper with Rene Gilmartin set for a prolonged spell on the sidelines after dislocating his knee cap whilst playing for the Hornets’ Under-21s.

    That is true - Flores has a different approach which is good.

    2 sent off for the Under 21s tonight for dissent.

    Lost 2-1 against Charlton.

    That'll be foul and abusive language unless they're second yellows. Never heard of such a thing a reserve match. Either the players have issues, or the official does.

    Yes - straight red cards.

    Must have been pretty serious - it came after the ref had a word with Kewell too so clearly he wasn't in a good mood!

    In my view that has to be linked to the coach.... and we know I dont rate him or his friends
