The Hornet's Nest

Ak -

 

There was some trouble in the Rookery and according to Tommy Mooney a few Rs were given a bit of a pasting.

Seeing as Yorkie said he was going up there could he have hit someone with a dead sheep?

 

Mr. B and Mr Thomas are both out on the pitch.

 

Mr B walked passed me at the end of the game...with his little girl? in tow. He wasn't smiling...!

 

L*t*n down 0-1 against Wrexham at half time - hehehehehe

 

Good - not that it makes much difference - hope for that in the play offs

 

Hornette, apart from the obvious (the team lost) was there anything that could have coused the glum look? A fan protest perchance?

 

Hi guys , a really good day despite the result , there was trouble in the rookery ,there were r.s everywhere this afternoon we had good banter with their fans near me !!
I thought Tommy had a good game , and we didnt lose too much when Tiny went off,and Dale came on which surprised me!
Marvins injury didnt look clever and I hope its not too serious!
I thought the Skipper had a good game ,and Malky was very animated that said QPR had the quality to take their chances and we didnt!
off now to sample the delights of the wetherspoons around the corner from the hotel!

 

Hi Norway.. I tried to see you from the rookery ...which box were you in?

We had a great day... just a shame about the outcome....

 

Yep and theres lots of pissed up rangers fans around watford at the mo! cant get a quiet pint anywhere ,so came back to hotel with bottle of wine took me a while to remember you can buy wine anywhere !!! and not a government watched shop!!!!Been away too long and with airfares as low as 40 quid each way (if they continue ) I would hope to do more games next season , the bug has bitten harder still! like to add a special thank you to W-Y and his crowd for a really great day out!

 

happy to try and plan a northern one next season Norway... although a northern version.. pie and peas etc

 

Glad you enjoyed it Norway.

I know the feeling to get back in the ground with all of the imperfections. It still feels like home.

 

Hello, unlucky today losing to a good QPR team, i wonder what there punishment will be.

 

Taken a while to catch up and thanks for the coffee Ak, if a bit cold.

Why did we have to lose today of all days.

 

Its like an old pair of shoes at the vic, yes its faulty, a few holes here and there but its HOME................ brings tears to this 16stone middle aged bruisers eyes just being there, memories of my grandfather its just so much more than a bulding or a spot in space, it has soul....

 

Frenchie it was a semi religious experience for me today! yes it is a spiritual home!
Yorkie , my targets for next year would be the london or south coast games due to flying into Gatwick

I throw open an invitation to any hornet that wants to go to Norway!! you can get flights now at 40 quid each way from gatwick!

 

Aberdeen beautifully put and accurate too!

 

I was looking round the ground and realise with the old main stand down.... there is nothing left from when I first stared going in 1961ish

 

*started


( was caught by the 30 second rule... wow!)

 

I don't get to many games but went today. Didn't thnk we played well - lots of mis-placed passes, never seemed to find Danny much and didn't really seem to get going properly. Having said that, other than the last 10 mins or so, I can't really see how QPR have won the league, they weren't awful, just didn't seem that good to be champions. Referee really poor especially in first half. Shame about the QPR fans on the pitch and coming up towards the Rookery taunting. I don't think anyone would have a problem with them celebrating, but why not keep it to themselves? (This includes Warnock who gave the Rookery a sarcastic clap and thumbs up before he scuttled off down the tunnel). Also a shame that because of the QPR celebrations, the traditional end-of-season circuit of the players seemed to have less meaning than normal mainly because about half the stadium had already left! Overall though, like Norway, I really enjoyed the day and when you don't get to the Vic too often, even with its three sides and unfinished corners, I still find it a really special place to be.
