    It all feels a bit crud.

    I imagine her more in the Virginia Ruzici mould, mainly as that’s a nice thing to imagine.

    Congrats on a storming result.

    Joka had us united & is repeating the dose at Fulham.

    He was the least ebullient Serb I’ve ever seen at the final whistle.

    Liked for your restraint in using the quaint somewhat upmarket 'nincompoops' when a more basic trailer trash rant of four letter expletives would have sufficed and been more appropriate. :)

    And you've renewed your season ticket ED because the anger and frustration of the typical Watford fan will fade into your memory bank and become a dim shadow of reality.

    Then a summer of (interesting/boring* delete as appropriate) golf and cricket and tennis and world cup football will eventually make you pine longingly for the anticipation and excitement of the opening game of a new season of your heroes at the Vic.

    Except your old heroes will mainly be replaced with a bunch of new unpronouncable faces but young Will Hughes will be playing and Chalobah will be playing the Chalobah role and we will have a new striker and a new foreign coach with a new foreign accent who will promise a new beginning.
    And you'll wonder how we will hold up and play against the New bunch of promoted clubs and the top wealthy six and you'll hope that 'this time' we can play some attractive football and score a few good goals and push for a top ten finish and have a cup run.

    And you'll have hope and boyish enthusiasm and a smile as we win a couple of games in the late summer and you will think 'this is what I've been missing the past 3 months I'm glad the new season has started .... '

    And then we'll be knocked out of the league cup by a 3 rd/4th tier club but that's OK we can concentrate on the league and we are playing some good stuff .....

    And we will beat some top teams and you'll be sooooooo optimistic we've finally turned the corner and you'll think just maybe this new coach is the real deal ....

    And then, sometime in the winter, and it will be different date next year, we'll get to groundhog day all over again .....

    And one day, when you're about a year older and wiser than now, you'll post on here a rhetorical question that you'll never expect to be answered that will be something on the lines of that old favourite almost forgotten Holebas "I'm fed up with this $hit, someone remind me why I've bought a new season ticket ....."

    And the groundhog days cycle of endless hope and endless frustration will continue on and on and on and on until you pass it on to your children or you die and go to HORNET heaven .... :(

    Hope that answers your question :p

    Guys can I get an honest opinion here...

    If Fulham do go up and the Joka takes his seat in the visitors dugout will sone of you come with me before the game and beg him to speak to Gino about coming back to us? :p

    All I can think of to say about this team is expletives. Just a shame Will Hughes is stuck with them.

    I play with Fabby and she was her usual competent self,mixed with occasional brilliance ( hence Fabby for Fabrice Santoro).
    She was, kindly and completely unprompted, bedecked in yellow and black and came out with the comment of the day in the third round.As our hapless opponents dinked another sitter into the net she said 'they're cak aren't they?'
    She is a petite lady from Broxbourne and is quite direct, as evidenced above!
    Yes no Bovril or burgers as predicted.
    It was a lovely day and I expect I matched you on the 'wee' count!
    I've never played in a match where the opposition donated three matches to us. Our only danger was losing concentration.
    Oh for such an easy match next Saturday!

    I love Hughes, but he was Huddersfield's third best passer behind Mooy and Capoue yesterday

    Good knowledge from you RD and Jumbolina!
    Richard Williams apparently saw VR win a tournament and accompanying prize money and decided he should have two more daughters and they should play tennis.
    A friend of mine,Amanda Brown,daughter of Ken Brown and sister of Kenny,was a set and 4-1 up against GS on Number 1 Court but lost. She should have been a top ten player, AB I mean. GS clearly was!
    Thanks for the congratulations but it really was a pyrrhic victory due to our opposition's capitulation.

    On reflection I stand by my drunken assessment of this shambolic bunch of shirkers.

    I remember a few years ago Troy said he was looking at a career in media when his football career finished. I didnt think it would be this soon. Sad that anyone continues to defend him when it's clear he isn't really up for it and hasn't been for a long time.

    I recall VR as being leggy, willowy even.

    Can’t imagine her grunting away like a Turkish weightlifter.

    Who next for Hoddesdon?

    How prevalent is grunting at your level?

    I know you're making a point for a laugh - and Hughes' passing wasn't great yesterday - but Capoue was actually our second best passer (behind Bobby P) and was considerably better than any Huddersfield player at finding his teammates. Their stats are poor for this level and it goes to prove why our negative setup yesterday was a complete misfire by Gracia. I'm starting think he bought the pre-match hype from their side and expected an all-action barrage from them from the first minute.

    This is absolutely masterful trolling. Sublime stuff.

    Great stat from MotD - Troy hasn't scored an away goal since January 2017...

    Prodl doing his best "firmly rooted tree" impression again, one of the pieces of "dead wood" which need to go.

    Richie's cameo suggests that he needs a rest from Premier League football for ever.

    Geez when are you going to get off my case? She slipped on the back foot step and bruised her lower back.

    How the heck is that trolling? It’s a legitimate reason I never went yesterday. I like your posts you say some intelligent things but there is a line between banter and being rude.

    I've always thought the username was a bit obvious and clunky, but the little touches and attention to detail like the above are sensational.

    Slightly controversial here, Capoue since signing his contract has been one of our best players behind Hughes and Bobby P.

    I’m sorry I really don’t get it. What exactly are you suggesting?

    Are you questioning my gender again, just like last time? I was forthright in clarifying it last time and I assumed me and you had put aside this issue between us.

    I don’t know you personally and I don’t care if your male or female, but I would like to think you can put any gender neutral issues aside and be sensible.

    So what if I’m gay? What that does that matter? I’m still a hornet no matter my personal life which is no business of yours anyway. I support them the same as you and other fans do.

    Filippo Giraldi. Never played. Just a fan.

    Scott Duxbury. Never played. Just a fan.

    Gino Pozzo. Never played. Just a fan.

    What do they know?

    What do we fans know?

    We're goosed.

    I can 100% assure you I have nothing but admiration for you. I think what you're doing is tremendous.

    Admiration in what way? The fact I still support the club, belong to a sports forum, homosexual, a woman or just in general?

    I can’t tell if your being genuine or sarcastic. Just so you know I have never and will never wish to question anyone’s personal views, beliefs or personal lives.

    One little ray of sunshine: At least our defeat gives Huddersfield more of a chance of staying up. As someone else pointed out on this thread their fans are very good and deserve a longer run in the top flight.

    Otherwise the rest is darkness and despair.

    I think it is your username that causes the problem with some (me included if I'm honest). Would you not be a little irked by 'watfordmale'? It does rather come across as if you think you are a bit special for being a woman, (esp. with girly avatar) whereas several on here quietly go about their business and it is not until daily life is discussed that gender becomes apparent.

    Just my tuppence ha'penny's worth.

    Ok that makes sense. Can I have it then? Can I also apologise to anyone I may have made felt uncomfortable with this debate.

    Mods or Meister can I change my username?

    What difference does a username make?

    We are all just words on a screen here anyway.

    Personally I always enjoy reading Watfordfemale's posts, and do so without needing to have any image of that person in my head.

    The bigger issue today is what our team can do to start winning again, and what our owners plan to do about the Head Coach next season.

    I agree with this.

    This is an anonymous forum on the internet, people can assume whatever persona they wish, that's the beauty of it.

    Now let's focus on getting the grinning goblin out of our club.
