A word from Sean Dyche - received today by email

I got this by email today, and since not everyone has seen it, here it is, for you reading pleasure


Hello Everyone,

I just wanted to say welcome to the new season.

Part of that welcome will come in a couple of weeks at the club’s annual Open Day. I’m looking forward to meeting a good number of you there, and I have impressed on the lads how important it is that they continue their role as ambassadors for Watford FC at this event.

Those of you who might have seen some of our players present at various community functions last season will know how important we see this part of their role. I appreciate the feeling the local community has for its football club, and I’m very keen the players acknowledge that it is a genuine warmth with which they’ll be greeted.

As far as our preparations are concerned, I trust you will have read news of our latest two signings Mark Yeates and Prince Buaben. These lads join Craig Forsyth and David Mirfin as newcomers to our squad, but I expect them to slot in quickly as we have an excellent group of players here.


I’m writing this from France, where we’re in the middle of a really vital week’s pre-season training at our base in Biarritz.

The weather has been mixed but one thing that has been consistent is the work-rate. The lads have been nothing short of fantastic. They’ve worked very hard, with the emphasis very much on creating a team mentality.

We’ve had a little down-time too, and used some of the time away from the training pitches to talk about setting our values for the season ahead.

I appreciate that many of you will have felt a degree of uncertainty with all the change that Watford has gone through this summer.

However I hope you might well be feeling things are starting to take shape now. There’s certainly a real air of positivity and energy among the players and staff.

I’m sensing that if we can get that feeling running through the stands come August, then we’ll be starting off on a great footing.

All the best,

Sean

Thanks for that I must admit that I am feeling a lot more positive now we have madea few quality signings. There is also good news with the ground and the Hornets seem to be on the up after the last few years.
