    Totally agree.

    Bobby P is most talented player in squad , but has done fxck all since autumn .

    We need to make space for Gray , and currently he’s the weakest link .

    Presumably we play with 10 wearing 'Pray for Wilmot' shirts, as a mark of respect?

    Exactly. Think hes had a couple of assists in past few months, and goes missing far too much.

    Fantastic fact: this forum's frequent use of The Life of Brian to explain everything from the semi-final team selection to Brexit has been mentioned on BBC Scotland.

    He is a plastic Watford supporter who has started using this forum to keep up to date with the mood of the nation and the hot takes on the FA cup.

    We should expand, and start combining favourite topics. Since Life of Brian and cheese seem to be popular on this forum, I'll start by nominating "Blessed are the cheesemakers".

    Obviously it's not meant to be taken literally ………. !

    You seem very vocative today Beeky ? Didn't mean that to sound accusative.
    Still remember NVAGDA from Mr Taylor's latin lesson at WBGS....along with my bloody class register, Armstrong, Barker etc etc.

    It's amazing how some of that "useless" stuff lies dormant for many many years but can be recalled almost instantly.

    Frightening really.

    Especially when I cannot remember what I did yesterday !

    Simple - depends on the weather.

    Warm and sunny - Deulofeu
    If not - Gray

    We had fruity Blackshaw for Latin who had a serious crush on one of the boys in our class, it was cringeworthingly sickening to watch.

    Andre Gray for a grey day?
    Had some problems with people being gay.

    Is this a haiku?

    So: we were possibly in the same class at school. I wasn't the object of the crush, but I am bad at noticing these things.

    Don't remember his name. Would have been about 1978/79 for me.

    on 2019 form Pereyra shouldn't play. Delefoo on the left and Gray and Deeney up front and I would be quite confident we would win. As it is, I see it as a 50-50 match with the front 2 that has been playing.

    the problem with calling Gray an impact player to change a game like others have said is the wrong approach. We need to play players who are in form and who give us the best chance of taking the lead in matches and controlling them rather than having to chase. We might get away with turning round matches against sides like Fulham but not necessarily those teams in the top half of the table. We could play Wolves tomorrow with the usual starting lineup, play like we did against Fulham first half, go 2-0 down, then expect Gray to turn it around. Aint gonna happen.

    Agreed.

    I think the Politics thread should be a subscription channel.
