    Then why has Ivic said it’s his only target and he’s on a 1 year deal?

    Whilst the club have sensibly not put a target in the eyes of the fanbase verbally, all the indicators are they have still set that as the only target.

    What is wrong with that?

    Your opening point to another poster was that people were complaining based on twitter rumours and were embarrassing. I countered that the accounts during the good times were worrying and are only going to get worse. I think the Pozzos have led us into a very vulnerable place. You think they are good custodians. Fair enough.

    Just don’t call people embarrassing for complaining about them when your support is pretty much based only on blind faith that they know what they are doing. You’re a hypocrite.

    I didn’t say there was anything wrong with it did I?

    So are you OK with it, or not?

    I’m okay with that being the target. But I think if the clubs actions since the final day of last season are the beginnings of their blueprint to achieve that target, then I think they will miss the target. By quite some distance. And it’s fair for fans who feel that way to air their grievances in whatever way they wish.

    Good, so am I, as showing some ambition is essential when we are both trying to retain players, and trying to attract players.

    So your saying you were worrying about the finances during the good times? Why?
    Do you look back on Eltons reign as hiring Dave Bassett as the only thing that happened?
    The owners have already proved they are capable by turning a **** show in to a decent side for a few years, and have provided many memorable days out at football. Isn’t that what’s it about at the end of the day?
    Watford survived previous owners and will be around long after you pop your clogs. Try and enjoy it.

    I wish I had your confidence. I think we have serious financial problems now. I thought we could clear the deck and start over but the trouble we are having shifting the likes of Deeney, Pereyra and Capoue as well as the poor fees received for Doucoure and Estupinan make me worry the bottom has dropped out of the market. Add to that ludicrous contract extensions for Capoue, Cathcart and Janmaat.

    And yes our finances were run poorly in the good times, but we had premier league revenue to offset it, or at least service it. Now we are in a real hole.

    Ultimately it’s pointless making these posts as people not happy with my posts will rewrite history in 12 months when we are really in strife and say they saw it coming due to Covid and back Pozzo to “sort it out”. Just like they do with the people who foresaw last season’s debacle. We have odd fans who are completely in awe of our owner. It’s an interesting study.

    Fair do’s. I just can’t get my head around the negativity until it all comes out in the wash. If we are playing crap football, with a crap team in two years then I will doff my cap. But I’ll still be enjoying going to football and celebrating a last minute winner against a pub team if that’s the case.
    Yes, I will clap Watford whatever the weather.

    He will sort the defence out one of these days. We were promised he could see it.

    yeah so will I on a game day. I just like to worry on here during the week.

    The defence that has conceded how many in the league thus far?

    What if Gino takes a steaming dump in your palms?

    Sorry. My mistake. Two clean sheets against Sheff Wed and Middlesboro and all is forgotten. They are just like the Milan side of the early 90’s now.

    I’ll throw it at you.

    Exactly this. Very much looks like they expect promotion this season.

    More like the Greek side that won Euro 2004

    More like the 5-a-side team that faces 25 shots on target and scrapes a 1-0 win.
    I’ll take it though.

    Let's give him another two years. Then I might consider there's an issue. If he happens to add a couple hundred more seats, then make it eight years.

    Oh boo hoo. Yes, that’s all they’ve done to the ground......
    Guess you haven’t been there.........ever?

    Quite right it’s got a cracking steak restaurant in there now too and you can always get a free table...

    To be fair, it is top nosh. ‘Free’ booze throughout the duration as well.

    Come on Burns. Does our ground look better pre, or post Pozzo?

    Sounds good.

    Not sure how I'd get a table home on the bus, but I do love a free gift.

    Unfortunately you have become too big. It’s not you that irritates me, just the followers

    You called me embarrassing. Twice. I called you ignorant. Maybe you need a thicker skin to go with your thick skull.
