Troy wants to return to Watford as Head Coach. Might be a while into the future before it happens, but I wouldn't be against it. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/troy-deeney-interview-watford-news-31190025
I feel he has burnt his bridges a bit with fans in recent months with the comments made . And Scott Duxbury.
I wonder what he charges for interviews? The papers know they will get some decent copy when they talk to him.
if they're the same fans who rail non-stop against Gino, Duxbury, Ismael, Bayo, Bachmann, Ngakia and sundry other players (including Troy when he was here) who catch their jaundiced eyes, then stuff them - nothing would please them.
Mike Williamson is apparently favourite to take over as HC at MK Dons. Thought he was a decent player when he was with us, but wasn't impressed when, 6 months into a 3 year contract, he engineered a transfer away by refusing to play.
Could have re-signed Dennis but Ismael said no . Suppose the trouble is the guy we got instead seems to be pretty useless so a feeling of “if only” maybe ? https://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sport/23863481.watford-boss-rejected-striker-represented-bayat/
The ironic thing was he never played a game for Portsmouth, although he did then get to Newcastle in the next window.
His departure was followed by this wonderful tweet... https://x.com/bcfcEJ/status/1718648234908807523?s=20
Am not sure what to make of this guy and his fascination with Kalu... https://x.com/lausanne_sport/status/1718934121819304121?s=20
FFS, you'd think we'd be beyond that nonsense by now... but no. Apparently and evidently not. My job entails me to visit people in their homes and be left alone to measure up, so I have to maintain a certain (kryste, I hate the word, but...) conservatism. I don't have the head of hair, nor the tattoos (though I'm getting on a bit for that now), I want, and partly to keep Mrs Fez happy. But in professional football? It's if you're good enough that counts, nothing else. Certain safeguards need to be in place around children obviously, but those are mental attitudes not looks. I'm irritated for him!
Mat Sadler could be looking for a new job tomorrow - his Walsall side is currently losing 1-0 to Isthmian League side Sheppey United in the FA Cup. Edit: he may be safe - Walsall just equalised.
