Hi all, As you can tell from my username, I'm a West Brom fan but due to work I am moving to Watford and I am keen to get to know my new local club. Notice you guys seemed pretty unlucky not to go up last year, although looks like you have made a flying start to the season! What are your predictions for the year? Also looks like we are going to be signing Vydra on loan, can he cut it in the Prem as he always looked decent last year?
Scored in the Europa league 5 minutes after coming on the other day ... so he should be good enough for a tinpot midlands club.
On Tuesday 25th October 1977, I attended West Bromwich Albion's stadium to see Watford play them in a league cup 3rd round game. Not only was a clear goal denied (when Luther Blissett hit the underside of the bar and it bounced down a yard over the line), but several so-called supporters of West Bromwich made the winker sign at our coach as we were leaving. Never really had much time for West Bromwich, nor their "supporters", since then to be honest. Find your own way around.
Not old enough to remember the 70's, but my understanding is it was a pretty intense time regarding hooliganism?? Either way, in recent years I can't remember many occasions when our fans have played up. Shame about the hostility, I'll be sure to get my map and compass out.
Ignore them jap. Best thing to do is browse around here for a while, ignoring the in jokes and inanity, watching a few highlights shows or reading the local paper (Watford Observer) online.
Local press seem pretty sure now Kalou won't be joining http://www.birminghammail.co.uk/spo...s/west-bromwich-albion-transfer-news-5696361?
Vydra won't be going on loan to a prem team I wouldn't have thought. Much to his agents chagrin. West brim person - do the chips round your way have that weird orange batter on them?
Welcome, Vydra will stay at Udinese and in January if we are looking at a promotion charge, he will be told he's going to Watford for the rest of the season.
What if, Vydra joins West Brom and we get to the FA Cup final and play West Brom? What then Pozzo's? What then??
Hi Jap. If you ever get stuck in Watford, be sure to contact The Voice of Reason. He knows all the ins and outs of this place, and will show you a hidden gem or two. He's more than happy to guide people about as well. I'm sure he'll be on soon to offer some expert advice to you.
The man himself has said he's got no offers from a Premiership club and Pozzo said after Sunderland's loan bid was rejected they're not interested in loaning him out.
Thank you for the glowing reference Cude; but you are too modest, surely you are the man now, as I am no longer living in the area. Glad to help if I can, but my up to date knowledge is not as good as it used to be now that I live in Cornwall; PM Cude he not as daft as he seems
The order of preference for Vydra loan whilst Pozzo Ownership: Wanna play in Italy? Yes its Udinese Wanna play in Spain? Yes its Granada Wanna play in England? Yes its Watford I dont see WBA in that list..
I enjoy going to wba -that boozer with the indian bbq at the back is the bees and ees... whats his name came on and scored a scorcher of a goal in the 3-1 defeat - he only cost a pound
