I can't help feeling a little sorry for them.Outplayed QPR and lost the play off final and now even looking like they might even miss the play offs. Did their goalie decide to outdo Ruddy?
 
They're struggling but every team seems to have taken their turn this season. I'd expect Watford to wobble before the end of the season. It may simply come down to who can time their form to coincide with the last 4 games.
 
It has the potential makings of a brilliant season end with even the possibility of us getting the chance to relegate Fulham on the last day.
 
I think the Chris Martin injury lay-off has affected them. Hopefully, we don't go the same way without Louis Grabban - we've certainly missed his energy and defence-stretching runs. Hooper is not that sort of player so it's been left to Jerome - I think that's why we're struggling a bit at the moment.
 
Just shows how tough this league is. Being 'classy' doesn't guarantee you promotion, or even this season a place in the play offs. Crazy that a side as limited and hoofball as Ipswich could be equal with Derby tonight on points, but that's the Championship.
 
I also think that the Wolves player quite cleverly threw his arm across Grant at the critical moment to distract him. Not enough for a foul though, while Hendrick's certainly was.
