Chaks thoughts on his return after an 8 month layoff. I suspect he'll be used sparingly for a while. https://www.watfordfc.com/news/2025/november/26/chakvetadze-i-was-so-excited/
Like his loan spell with us, totally bereft of class. https://the72.co.uk/2025/11/26/preston-north-end-daniel-jebbison-taunts-watford/
Rather wish I had, caught a bit of a chill that went straight to my chest. Body is not happy! Proper taters last night but not Torquay Utd at home in the League Cup cold... that was about -5. Still a two-Bovril match last night, all the same.
Well , our crowd taunted him throughout. Are you saying that it's all right for supporters to taunt players, but not for players to respond ?
Like it or not that's life for those in the public eye - they have a duty to act like role models/responsible human beings rather than like spoilt, overpaid brats.
That's twaddle. Footballers aren't senior politiicians , military leaders or self-appointed influencers.They have a duty only to be the best they can be for their team.. They are not, do not ask to be and do not wish to be 'role models'. What did Jebbison do that qualifies for the description 'spolit overpaid brat' ? Methinks a degree of jealousy is evident here. Whatever, the abuse thrown at opposition footballers when they score is quite unacceptable. Just look at the tv screens when an opposition player scores. Before he even turns to celebrate with his team, the 'fans' are gesticulating, and abusing him. I find it offensive.( It's a symptom of the anger that seems to pervade our whole society . )
Did you not watch Jebbison during his loan spell here? His couldn't care less attitude to how he played for us was evident for all to see - did absolutely nothing to earn his wages. You have a strange view of what constitutes a role model in society - politicians, senior or otherwise, and military leaders are at the bottom of the pile in the average Joe's view - the words, actions and attitudes of footballers have far more influence on people's minds. You may think that they only have a duty to be the best they can for their team, that may apply in an ideal world, but, as you effectively pointed out, we don't live in an ideal world - we live in one unfortunately populated by large numbers of impressionable idiots who can't think for themselves - and who thrive on the hype and nonsense surrounding footballers, encouraged by media saturation. Quite what makes you arrive at the conclusion that footballers don't wish to be role models is baffling to say the least - all the available evidence suggests the opposite. And as for your "jealousy" comment - give me strength. You couldn't be further from the truth if you tried.
