I can understand why your nervous, however, most of us want you to be promoted, as we dont care to much for Watfraud FC. I think we may rest a few players, so you should have enough in the tank to win IMHO.
To be totally honest, Malky can do whatever he wants however if our lads dont have the will to win then they wont win, simple as that I think.
Malky Mackay played and managed Watford. He loves the club,so i don't see anything else,than a full strength eleven.
Let's be honest... he loved them enough to leave for more money and ambition. Don't think it particularly matters, if city turn out they'll be good enough to beat Cardiff.
it's not about Cardiff, it's about us. if we play like we did at Oakwell, Malky could play the U17's and we'd get tonked!
Watford fan in peace - though i doubt we'll be that welcome on here this week! We have to beat leeds and i don't think that's a given. There was no real pressure on us in our last 2 games but now that we are suddenly involved in waht is more or less a one game shoot out we're as likely to choke as you are. I've said it before - I just hope whoever loses out on Saturday goes through the play offs.
Dan, might seem weird but a large chunk of our fans think we're already fooked, that you will tonk TWS and we'll lose to Cardiff. Most won't even begrudge you 2nd if that's how it ends up. The table doesn't lie. If we go up its because we've gotten more points than you, if you go up, its the reverse. Simple facts really. I dont think we have that many who have an issue with the Udinese thing either. Good luck at the weekend, and fingers crossed we can both go up one way or the other!
Cardiff's last two teams v Burnley and Bolton, not weak sides that's for sure! BURNLEY 01 Marshall 02 McNaughton 03 Taylor 06 Turner 25 Barnett 11 Conway 13 Kim Bo-Kyung 16 Noone (Bellamy - 66' ) 17 Gunnarsson 18 Mutch (Cowie - 74' ) 15 Gestede BOLTON 01 Marshall 02 McNaughton (Nugent - 83' ) 03 Taylor 06 Turner 12 Connolly 11 Conway (Noone - 59' ) 13 Kim Bo-Kyung 17 Gunnarsson 18 Mutch (Smith - 63' ) 15 Gestede 39 Bellamy
I know we’ve been **** over the last two games especially. But in this league, anything can change. Cardiff have won the league on merit but they are far from unbeatable. Personally, I think Cardiff will come with strength and that might not be a bad thing. Perhaps, a full strength team will have less motivation than a young/fringe team desperate to impress? Recall us losing to a United side on that day we stayed up versus a young side eager to make their mark. If we can get that goal, we’ll see the players’ confidence change.
Mackay said after they became champions that he wanted as many points as possible. It's up to us and going on the last 3/4 games can't see us doing it. As for play offs, can't see us doing that either, we don't have the momentum we had last time.
Someone I spoke to tonight said that Malky Mackay might not want it to be Watford because he will be miffed that he wasn't the one to take them up. Not that it matters, its in our hands anyway we need a win.
OK peeps, a bit of realism here from a boring old fart that's been there for 40 years......fact, the way we have played for the last 4 weeks we shouldn't beat Cardiff...fact, the way Watford have played & TWS have played the last 4 weeks it's a slam dunk....fact, we've played the bottom 4 teams this last 3 weeks and not done the business...fact, the Championship is madder than a bat in a biscuit box......fact, I'll be there in E10 with heart in mouth, beer & patty n chips in tummy.....won't change the fact that Seriously Strong is THE best cheese.......everything else is just a pretence.....the truth hurts sometimes....
I would imagine the tackling could get very tasty if we are not getting what we want.If I played for Cardiff I would not want to be injured by over zealous opponents
And pray tell us cafe why that might be...they're all off to lay on a beach for 6 weeks, a few bruises won't bother them....we've been less than tasty this last 4 weeks, unlike Seriously Strong cheese, etc., etc.,............a party in your mouth....
