Watford FC 0-0 Crystal Palace - 21/04/2018

Deeney was one of the players with a stomach bug this week but unlike the others, it's actually made him fitter as he lost a stone and a half.

 

Please God pick Gomes and drop that Greek clown

 

Wasn't Gomes at fault for one of their goals in December?

 

Let's hope this new Croatian coach Hracia is up to scratch!

 

Pick Prodl and hope he infects all of the Palace players. No problem if he infects ours, as we're not going to get any more points this season anyway

 

I bet it's the only time this year he runs

 

Apparently they believed it was something he ate...which doesn’t narrow it down.

 

I cannot remember when I last looked forward to a match so little.
At the moment I cannot see us getting another point. I know that is almost certainly wrong and we could pick up another win or two even but all my enthusiasm for the season has drained away.

 

Andre, management have told your not to air your personal feelings on public forums.

Or fora.

 

Tomorrow we're going to a computer Coder Dojo at the Oxford University Maths Dept from 11 until 1 (free) https://coderdojooxfordcouk.wordpress.com/,

Then we're going to drop into the Greek Food Festival at Oxford Town Hall (free) https://allevents.in/oxford/greek-food-festival/1589693661045272

Then in the afternoon we're going down Iffley Road to Oxford Brookes Uni's Outburst festival, where I've lashed out £1 for 4Cyclones to go in the 'Drawing With Light' long exposure photography activity. https://www.brookes.ac.uk/outburst/whats-on/2018/drawing-with-light/


So that's three events for a total cost of £1.

You can stick yer £35 football up yer VAR.

 

Sounds sh1te

 

I like this quote. Can I use it? I may place it as my signature along the lines of "You can shove video replay's up your VARse".

 

Song for Saturday to the tune of Seasons in the Sun (remember that one)

Gracia, Gracia
well never score a goal
Because we can't cross the ball
and Deeney ' s far to slow.

 

I'm a little more optimistic about tomorrow's game now. I've just checked the weather forecast and it's going to be sunny.

 

We don’t sing anymore mate.

 

A song about a dying man.

Appropriately enough.

 

Forecast suggests sunny start but storm brewing, likely to become apparent in or around 90th minute.

 

I know what you mean

I know what you mean. If we cannot beat Huddersfield there is little to hang on to. All our players are either out of form or just can't be asked. A little run at the end of the season would have given us some renewed hope. Groundhog day feeling!

 

It’s gone beyond that for me sadly. I’m convinced a ‘little run’ of results would be merely papering over the cracks and I’d be fearful for next season. The capitulation of the last few weeks and the complete lack of effort away from home cannot be eradicated from my mind.

 

Had a dream

Watford win three nil

In same dream I was also being chased by snakes who were after my mini eggs

Make of that what you will

 

Bounced by a storming win over palace we then go on to do spurs, Newcastle and utd

 

Marco Silva wants your balls?

 

138.com have just informed that I can get 28/1 for us to win.

And the bookies never lose.

 

Palace are favourites. Ludicrous. I have stuck £200 on us.

 

With teeth like that he’ll get through them in no time.

 

Yes, possibly, but that’s based on performance rather than ability. Put another way, Dyche, after three years in charge of this lot (yes, I know) would have us with more points than Burnley have now.

 

I've never got the hype over mini eggs; to me they are one of the most banal and average easter chocolates available. The hard candy shell is just a drag, and then there's standard cadbury chocolate in the middle. There's all kinds of great **** you can get instead, like creme eggs. I'm now realising I did not have a single creme egg this easter period, which blows my mind.

A lot of people, myself included, seem to associate 'Lindor' with easter nowadays, and they are brilliant.

 

I was having to deal with a schizophrenic that had missed his medication and kept talking about snakes everywhere the day before

The same day I also picked up mini eggs for a snack

That what fuelled the dream


In reality I know everyone in work and at home want to make me unhappy
I like snakes, make nice belts
Cannot remember childhood

The only unsolved bit is the 3 nil Watford win

 

If I want a chocolate egg I don't wait till Easter my physical state substantiates that

Mini eggs are massively overrated , I only had them to continue the theme of my day - disappointment


Lindt or kinder for me

 

Reading the latest injury update it seems might be snowed under with returns for last game of the season

Like the lads from work who end there sick leave one day before they can **** off on their booked summer holidays and not get pulled by HR

Flip flops already on

 

Easter ? I associate lindor with getting home every night.

 

Dream state aside I've gone for

Btts, each team over three corners, each team over 2 cards 20/1 £7

I'd really like to hit 40 points tomorrow, it's sad I'm starting to look at Southampton and stokes fixtures and guessing what they will lose rather than what we will win to stay up

Mathematically they could both overtake us, so I never consider us safe till the numbers add up

Would be a shame to finish season just above drop zone and tomorrow is best remaining chance to hit 40
