    Me neither mate but, in all honesty, look back through the forums and some people had never registered Watson last season ...

    ... many couldn't name any of our young players now let alone spell their names.

    Take Sam Osunguyi for example ... how many know anything about him?

    He was outstanding against Sheffield United away. I thought he was a talented lad but the way he went at their, recently premier league, defence was an eye opener. Tormented them.

    I struggle to spell our first team names let alone Trey's.

    Probably why I hope Crompton makes it as it's easy to spell

    Just a fun bit of academy info, back when he was in the younger age groups they were struggling with a position for watson and he did spend some time as a fullback/wingback (quite unsuccessfully)

    I don’t go on those for that exact reason.

    one person saying one thing, and was called up on it several times. Yet people have come on here tonight acting like the consensus of the entire board was that everyone thought it was true. And frankly it still might be. Who knows. Let’s not go calling each other out when nobody has a ****ing clue.

    I watched a documentary about Ajax years ago where every player had to train in a different position. I'm pretty sure Bergkamp trained as a defender to help him understand how to beat centre halfs.

    There's plenty of others mate, seriously some people just have an unshakeable grudge ...

    ... and can't bring themselves to mention good things like Isidor signing or Le Fée coming.

    No big deal, perhaps some people just notice certain patterns that mean nothing to others.

    I've not seen anyone, at all, say anything of the sort ...

    ... but you obviously have.

    Not sure it was for that reason but might have helped him out in the long run

    or some people only spot what they want to spot and extrapolate it as being more than it is.

    I know you’ve been trying to catch prehab out tonight after your earlier attempts to chase somebody off the board. But prehab has been quite clear the club have done everything right by Watson. Some major gaslighting going on.

    please feel free to name the people that are bashing the club today. Call them out.

    Then those that claim it as fact, also need to realise that.

    I've just read a post otr where it's claimed Watsons agent has said he will sit out the next 18 months and leave for nothing.

    Apart from the fact that's wrong as we would be due compensation, you can see how guesses are now being taken as fact.

    I don’t have a dog in this fight. I’m on the straight and narrow here. I don’t want to see anything.
