OFH - at the end the players all came over to thank the fans and FF was straight over and clapping big time. No way will he sulk, his attitude puts the big time Charlie's in th Prem to shame - he loves playing, he loves playing for Watford and he loves the fans appreciation of him.
Jon Marks was commenting at the end of the game about the players going over and handing out their shirts. He said that he knew for a fact that they had to pay for them. I hope that they received the end of season discount. Should also mean that there will be less available at the shop for the fans. Second half when Leicester threw on their even bigger forwards, I thought that Doyley, Ekstrand and Cassetti did a superb job. Despite his size I am not sure that Fitz Hall could have done better.
Yes defensively we did very well. Yeates was lucky though to get away with it when he failed to clear the ball on two occasions....
Probably my last thought on last night, but after all the abuse handed out during the last few months I thought the Ref was spot on and deserves a bit of praise.
A comment on the team spirit shown by the Watford players---it seems that the motto on the German Football League Trophy translates as "If you want to win , you have to be eleven friends". Seems to work for them.

Yes OFH. Noted that last night further up the thread. Especially in such an important game for both teams, the ref was excellent. Got yellows, the main pen shout from Leicester and the Leicester goal being onside all right. About time, isn't it?

Yeah, have to say the ref was very good. I had to really think about a decision I did not agree with and really struggled - even taking into account the amount of beer I had drunk! I wish it was like that every week.
For those who missed the Chalobah goal [video=youtube;0UFq-4COhDI]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UFq-4COhDI[/video]
I have to say that the Chalobah goal had me genuinely speechless. When I tried to speak, my mouth would open but nothing would come out, its like I had forgotten how to form words. It was that good! Its only the second thing to ever leave me speechless. The first half performance was excellent, but the second half is not the first time we have sat too deep and allowed the opposition to apply the pressure. It seems like the two goal lead is a purgatory for us, not yet safe but maybe a bit confident.
Er - only if it is televised. And only if they subscribe to Sky - or can find a live stream. All that Queensland sun gone to your head?
There is no doubt both you and Hull deserve to go up and I can only hope one of you wins the play offs as that is the way this will end now. good luck, jck
