    I was listening to 3CR and Geof Doyle said was that a yellow and Derek Payne said not even a free kick but at least the Derby player knows what to expect

    We need to sort out the left back position….time and time again we get exploited down that side….larouci always seems to be out of position

    good win though!!!

    Win and a clean sheet, what's not to like!

    A special mention to the woodwork too!

    Have other sides worked out that everything normally has been coming through Giorgi, and if you stop him, you stop Watford? Today without him, more of a threat came from both wings.

    Given the dross that has been served up recently, the biggest surprise of the day must surely have been the number of away fans - 2,234.

    Well done them...

    Just thinking about Barr and Vata. They did their fair share of tackling back to help the defence out. Two young players that are improving every game.

    I've long believed that, in football, teams in black are more likely to lose because it is harder to spot one of your own side. I keep meaning to do a statistical analysis but don't have the time at the moment.

    In rugby I want teams in black to spontaneously explode, but that is another game.

    Wasn’t aware Bond got injured.
