    Yeah I saw the kid who runs WD18 or whatever its called said 'we should get behind him for the rest of the season'.

    Why just the rest of the season? Do we stop getting behind him after the final day?

    Then again, I assume he wants another appearance on Hornet Hive shilling shirts and tat for their next sale.

    Bloody hell, Luther's statement.....this club lurches from one PR disaster to another. Absolute clowns.

    I laughed at this bit of the interview, how dare the goalkeeper have the audacity to get in the way.

    Well said Luther. Just another example of poor decision making at the top. To try and denigrate one of the biggest legends of the club is beyond the pale. For one thing you could never ever fault his commitment. I doubt the hierarchy would have the humility as God did to apologize. The sooner Meathead is removed the better. He is a real issue going forward.

    But unsurprisingly a lot of the comments on the video illustrate how sheepish some of our fan base is.

    Why does the club insist on pointlessly shooting itself in the foot? The sheer number of PR disasters we've made in the past year....

    We're now actually turning the clubs greatest ever player against us. All in order to vaguely drum up support for Andre f*cking Gray.

    He's not even slightly sorry. If he was, he'd would've said so back in November, not February.

    Look forward to seeing him in the lineup today....


    EDIT- Yep, there he is. Quelle f*cking surprise.

    Treated disgracefully - and one of the few that has remained involved in the community since he arrived

    Detest what this club has become

    Good grief.
    I feel quite tearful having read the statement.
    Whoever sanctioned that should resign immediately or be sacked.
    A far cry from GT walking around the pitch with his card saying "I'm sorry".
    Nauseating.

    Andre would walk round with a sign saying “I’m sorry you’re upset”

    What's the story with the GT sorry sign?

    I've seen Luther have the **** kicked out of him numerous times but that's the first time I've seen him angry.

    He made some errors in the team selection I think and admitted it in the press.
    At the next home game he walked around the pitch showing his sign to all.
    All a long time ago but it was just hit me that we're so far removed from that today.
    No humility,no energy and the only communication is so trite and misplaced that it worsens the situation,which is hard to believe.

    It was criticism of the fans I think. About the level of support. Scroll down.

    Ah yes,you're correct.
    Thank you.
    My point remains. The man had the humility to admit his error.
    I don't blame Xisco,we can all see he's woefully out of his depth.
    I don't really blame Gray anymore. It's painful watching him flounder and flap game after game.
    This is down to the owner.

    Excellent work rate today. Did everything but score. If he keeps on performing like this, 100% the goals will come.

    How’stat? We’re not blind as fans, he’s statistically the worst finisher out of 44 teams. Amazing.

    Watford's Andre Gray has scored just one goal from an xG of 6.34 in this season's Championship.

    The highest negative xG differential (-5.34) of any player in England's top two divisions this season.

    Pathetic from the club, he’s undoubtedly going to get a brace against us.

    We all know what is going to happen don't we ? We will pay him off, he will re-join L****, and will score the winner against us next season.

    Fantastic strike rate
    Well worth his 80k a week
    1 goal in last 30 ? I could score 1 less in 30
    For balance he was unlucky with his mishit cross which the keeper had to tip over

    Apart from not scoring and getting booked what exactly did Gray do today?
    A mishit cross? A booking after failing to control ?
    Look at the stats and you will see Deeneys contribution

    The club's PR/comms is dreadful. Off the top of my head since the start of this season they've bungled Adrian Marriapa's leaving statement, sent out a piece of illiterate gobbledegook to encourage fans to part with 20 quid to 'reserve' their seat and now put out the Andre Grey video - which not only confirms everything we've ever thought about Andre but manages to insult Luther at the same time. Heads should roll.
