Our defeat to Ipswich was during the run of four straight defeat when arguably the squad was at its lowest ebb, tomorrow we get the chance to see how far they have come. We know Ipswich are direct (for want of a better word) and its something we haven't always dealt with well, we need to impose our game on them rather than vice versa. Personally I think what Mick McCarthy has achieved is remarkable this season with the resources available but would like to think that we will finally put on a footballing lesson for one of the top 8.
 
Back to today's match...I'd like to think we can carry on with winning ways and think ultimately we will, but it won't be easy. Shame about Abdi still out but Slav has proved time and time again that he can make changes to the starting line up and still get the result. Thanks for the thread OFH, I'm going for a close 2-1 win to keep the pressure on the others at the top. COYH!
 
Not making excuses (well ok I am) but we do have some key players out injured for this one with Parr, Bish, Hyam and McGoldrick all out. This game is a big enough test with a fully fit squad given the fact that we haven't won at Vicarage Road since God himself was a boy! Well 2012 but it doesn't sound so good! The majority of Townies will be viewing this more in hope rather than expectation but you just just never know especially in this Bonkers league.

I expect the Watford Hex to continue and if we can get away with a close defeat by no more than 2 it will be Okayish! This game won't define our season but it will make our job harder in achieving a top 6 finish.

All Bournemouth at the moment, Boro have not had a decent effort to date. Wilson being the main tormentor, if they keep him fit they look a good bet to get one of the auto's particulary with a glance at their run in.
