@JordanWiemer I think Will Hughes is very underrated in this discussion, felt like a real coup when we picked him up and consistently performed at a high level.

Over the Pozzo era, who has been our best Championship experienced signing? And what would you estimate their market value at today?

@TBBodell The strangest thing seems to be that, if recent reports are to be believed, literally everybody outside and inside the club can see it… except for Gino. Which is a problem. Turns out an expensive Harvard MBA doesn’t teach you about delegation.

Neutrals can see it. Why can’t those closest to the club? #WatfordFC

@StueyGardner @LeeJackson_1 There is no question, he’s better than what we’ve got, though admittedly who we have got are absolutely crap.

@LeeJackson_1 Could argue he is better than what you got seeing as he scored more goals, no pens, than any of your players in a relegated team

Go and get Lankshear for next season but surround him with established Championsip players, he’ll come good…#WatfordFC

@thewatfordway I completely agree with this in theory, but in practice it’s utterly pointless to hear from anyone at this club. Same old platitudes from Scott, absolutely no personal accountability from Gino.

Where are you, Scott? Time to stop hiding and start talking. #WatfordFC

@winty1976 @AmericansFooty Kola decision was madness, defence only started looking functional when he came in

@AmericansFooty And why would they replace him with Close and not Kolo?

If De Koning isn’t hurt, whoever decided to mange him should be out of a fucking job #AFL #AFLPowerCats #WeAreGeelong

@louorns @BaitVic Smart move from Gino, combine the Dictator and Vibe merchant hires into one, save on payouts.

@BaitVic It also makes the head coach job redundant. Ed tried to get it together, whilst theres no animosity and they like him, I don’t think they respect him enough as he’s off anyway. They’ve wanted Gattuso at least 4/5 times before hand so wouldn’t shock me if they go for him

Was debating whether to tweet this • Huge divide in dressing room. Players have separated into their cliques • Behrami wants long term strategy at the club, so does Nani • Pollock and Kyprianou main instigators at trying to restore some culture • It’s worse than you imagine

Off to the Riverside.

@thewatfordway If those wanting to protest against Gino don’t utilise a native Italian speaker to make sure the message truly gets across then I’d be very disappointed. Have him at the front of the Rookery leading some less than polite Italian chants.

Message from Mauro. 🇮🇹👇

@DanielOwens1979 @louorns I think that’s a little unfair, has only really looked less than excellent when not at full fitness. Before his injury he was consistently our best player, and that showed in the results when he was out of action.

@louorns Strange player. Swings wildly from being the next CR7 to someone who’s put his boots on the wrong feet.

Not my info so don’t know but according to this Maamma is set to sign a new contract with us..

@louorns Bove must be rueing the day he shared that cab with Nani

I know for a fact most players want out and are fed up of the circus. I do have sympathy for them because they become immersed into this blameless culture. Gino isn’t a moron, he went to Harvard ffs. There has to be an ulterior motive at play

I thought this hire & the Cleverley one would be ones where both, in theory, should work; but haven’t at all. TC knew the club and Ed was someone known to Bayat. But it’s clear we need a full reset this summer. Gino has an easy win here of getting rid of everyone including Scott

@CiaoGinowfc Quite frankly I’m surprised there’s ‘several’ that give a shit enough to scrap over it.

According to a reliable source "several" #Watfordfc players nearly came to blows in the dressing room at FT. If this is accurate it just further demonstrates how bad things have become.

By some margin this is the worst Watford team I’ve watched in the last 25 years. Utterly gutless, soulless and almost entirely without redeeming features. Don’t worry Gino the next randomly chosen coach will be the one that sticks I’m sure.

Would you like to know something funny? Someone at the club recently told me they regret sacking Cleverley but would never admit it publicly

@HollowayAdam Can’t wait until his inevitable contract extension to 2032 gets announced

Kayembe starts ffs must be contracted that he has to start when fit Awful line up 3.0 loss incoming at best #watfordfc

@HornetTalkPod I think we’ll end up in the same place as ever, bobbling around lower mid table. There’ll be enough quality and excitement early doors to get some results but absolutely nowhere near enough mental strength to maintain any consistency.

Do u think we will be in a relegation scrap next season, Hornets? 💭🐝 #watfordfc

@TBBodell Im so curious to see whether the extra promotion places next year makes Gino more likely to want to sell, as he thinks it raises the value, or more likely to stay as there’s more chance for a hastily assembled team of kids, vets and placeholders to sneak in.

Really crept up on me that we’ve only got three left. Seems like five minutes since Ed Still was appointed with a third of the season to go and the - now completely ludicrous - notion of chasing down a playoff spot. Shows how badly the season has drifted. #WatfordFC

🗣️ Ed Still This week been a ‘big moment’ for the team - made ‘very clear’ what must change. Hearing fans bemoan ‘typical Watford’ has made him even angrier at performances. Pressure on his job - ‘I knew what I was walking into, I’m not kidding myself about it.’ #watfordfc
