    No way Davis was offside there - don't know what the linesman was looking at

    Overhead kick from Porteous goes well wide

    Listening to Talksport. The commentary is dreadful. Haven't found a stream that doesn't want you to sign up for something.

    Ref staring straight at WBA defender as he tried to rugby tackle Porteous - seemed to think that's acceptable as he did nothing

    Shocking defence from WBA puts Davis in - but he shoots at the keeper

    Another good run by Kone comes to nothing as he appears to trip over his own feet in the penalty area

    Sarr blocks a hard shot with his head - that must have hurt

    HT 1-0
    WBA started like a train but ran out of steam - but Watford didn't seem to want to up their pace. Maybe too frightened of counter attacks

    My commentary suggests that Watford are the best side.

    Watford look more dangerous but are squandering some great moves..
    Sema looking very strong

    Your commentary is correct - but there's still lots of room for improvement. Lack of urgency really, Kone seems to be the only one prepared to attack quickly.

    We are - after a slow start had more of the ball and danger.

    I am quite impressed by Morris but he could cross the ball more often.

    The lack of decisive decisions in the last third is so frustrating, could have easily been 3 or 4 up ,,hope we don't come to rue that , wba can't be as bad in next 45, in fact they often come back in 2nd half of games.
    We are so ponderous and slow at times you wonder what they've been coached to do ? Not conceed ?

    He looked frustrated when taking throws - lack of movement from his teammates. Maybe he would cross more often if others were running instead of watching?

    Totally agree. GT would be tearing his hair out at this performance - as much as it's an improvement on what has been served up previously.

    Three more goals and we'll go back ahead of Luton.:)

    Yellow for Choudhury - reckless tackle
