    The Hornets' Nest II

    Was just wondering if anyone had a spare seat in their car/minibus up to Leeds. Got my ticket ages ago and was waiting to see whether worth driving up if my brothers came with (the back up being the club coaches). Well my fair weather brothers have decided the trip oop north isn't worth the...

    Watford Short News Items

    Must say I'm astonished at the negativity around the club at the moment from many fans. A short bad run of 4 points from 15 (previously won 4 out of 5) and the doom mongers are out in force! I think we have all seen that there has been a lack of steel in our midfield recently. Ireney offers this...

    Match thread: Watford vs Derby County

    I wish it were Hornette but I don't think it was just for the ref - you should hear some of the crap emanating from those around me.... "what are you passing backwards for!" "Sort it out" etc etc... As an aside - the ref was pretty awful falling for all of Martins histrionics however he did let...

    Match thread: Watford vs Derby County

    Far too much negativity in my opinion. I think I have supported us long enough now to be a bit more pragmatic than some of the current fans whose expectations I still feel are perhaps a bit too high. I couldn't believe that I heard some booing at half and full time. Not to mention the fact that...

    Match Thread: Huddersfield Town vs Watford

    Agreed this seems the likely selection. I think Cassetti is a very useful outlet at wing back and from set pieces. Given that Anya will prob play both Scotland games it may make sense to play Cassetti? He set up a lot of goals before moving to centre half last year and his experience may b...

    Match Thread: Huddersfield Town vs Watford

    Well done to all those who made it up there today - did the orns proud. Have always been put off going to Huddersfield since I joined 200 odd in making the journey on a Wed night in the 90's when we lost 2-0 and don't believe had a shot on target :) Regarding Fessi it sounds like he had an...

    Match thread: Watford - Norwich City

    I think that's the definition of a sickener 😪 we were lucky to b in it let alone in front at half time but were superb in 2nd half and couldn't c Norwich coming back. Great game for a neutral but this will hurt for a few days. It is a shame the fringe players won't get more chances for a...

    To keep track of ins and outs.

    Oldnick - clearly you enjoy playing devils advocate and there is nothing wrong with that per se - certainly it helps to stimulate healthy debate on the forum. However, I dont think I have ever heard anything positive come from you and it is starting to get a bit stale. On the few brief occasions...

    The Rumours Thread!

    The photos and twitterings seem to confirm that Cassetti and Battocchio will be joining us again next season - what a day to be a hornet! Do you think there are as many smiling players at other preseason get-togethers around the country? With so much good feeling about the club its no wonder...

    The Rumours Thread!

    Afraid not - off to the states for a couple of weeks with the family. Happy to (try to) translate some Italian press reports if anyone wants though - I got an 'A' in my 1 year GSCE Italian don't you know ;) ....although that was about 13 years ago and I don't know how far scusi, c'e una banca...

    The Rumours Thread!

    Looks like Reece Brown (younger brother of Wes) is joining the squad in Italy as is Daniel Pudil (twitter). Doesn't say if the former is on trial, on loan or permanent signing though on Wikipedia it says he is out of contract. I expect that over the next day of two the squad will start to...

    Watford anthem -yellow

    Agree with whats been said thus far - I remember the atmosphere in the North stand during GT's second coming - games home to Ipswich (pen won by Nicky Wright; cant remember who scored it) and Sunderland (2-1 - GNW with fantastic winner) it was fantastic. I think this had a lot to do with it...

    european goal of the season

    some cracking goals in the list and I cant really choose between our 2 tbh don't want to re-open old wounds but how great would it have been if we had finished the job this season for so many reasons.... 1. We could have finally knocked down the East stand and started work on a new one...
