    Well we drew in normal time.

    ;)

    Typical of us to get another injury .

    Nice to see a few young players and Kone do well on his debut.

    Quite impressed by the 'A' team really - Andrews, Adu-Poku, Adeyemo each put in a good shift and didn't look overawed at all- perhaps the recruitment team should sign players on an alphabetical basis?

    Kone looked like a decent acquisition as well.

    I find that Hungbo is a bit of a disappointment. A couple of years ago, his speed was a real threat to defences, but no longer. Maybe he developed early and has not kicked on further.

    I tend to agree. Maybe he spends too much time in the gym - seems to have bulked up a lot.

    Under normal circumstances I would have been raging after this game but with the injury crisis it was not too bad, unlucky for both goals according to the commentary

    Good runout for the youngsters and showed some promise

    Our keeper today is the Nigerian Keeper but then Ekong is their captain

    Shaq Forde got a hat trick today, could be one for the future

    Ryan Andrews is only 18 years old. Plus there is Jack Grieves, who is 17 years old and was also born in Watford, He has several relatives who played for the club.
