I recall talking to Stuart Slater once about playing the filth. He said in the build up to the game he was a bit nonplussed by it given he had been involved in West Ham/Millwall, Celtic/Rangers and Norwich/Ipswich earlier in his career and given the size of Watford and the filth he didn't think it would be much different to a league game, but as the week went on and matchday came around he was taken aback by the level of hatred that exists between the two. It seems very odd to not be going on Saturday, and I highly suspect away games will not be an option for the rest of the season which rules out a trip to their caravan park in April.
Is there any way we could try to lead them into the pond? I bet that smelly lot could do with a wash and a bar of soap.
Going by what I read on social media this is because Luton fans are still thinking of turning up and I hate to say think they might get something as well (the team I mean!)
The sooner this nothing game is over the better. I used to be passionate about derby games but now I don't see them as rivals at all, they're just another Barnsley in the south as far as I'm concerned.
Watford fans who don't consider Luton our rivals are going to be reconsidering that on Saturday I fear.
How can they not? I absolutely hate them. I refuse to even speak the name. Even at work I refuse to ever cover in the store for company I work for in that dump or acknowledge we have a store there
An earlier start gives them less time to get pissed up, and gives the law a better chance to try and keep the animals them under control.
At that time of the morning, are Bloody Marys or Mimosas acceptable? Seems appropriate for such a highbrow affair as Watford v L**on.
How does the forum work? Do I have to click on every reply to see the thread? Edit, I found a view thread button, why not just have the thread viewable straight away? Wtf is wrong with these animals? Edit two, to be fair they are probably right about Clives hard drive needing checking.
I had a drunken arguement with a Luton supporting taxi driver outside Watford junction on Saturday night. He drove about 2 minutes and refused to take me any further because I was a bit rude about Luton as a place and their bog of a stadium. They're all scummy ****s.
To be honest you sound like the scummy one in this scenario. Taking off at someone who is just doing their job about football? Sounds a bit pathetic.
Don't worry other way round, I'd never insult an individual but was having a dig at the town and club. I was trying to have a bit of fun but he was a moron and took it all very personally - distinctly remember saying something about Kenilworth Road being dirtier than my toilet (which is actually in all likelihood a fact). Went down like a lead balloon and then he got very pissy.
Why say that to a cab driver though? Seems a strange thing to do. I just chat in a friendly way when they talk about football but that’s just me.
So someone mentions they are a Luton fan and you praise the club do you? To be honest, whichever club it is I'll have a little pop because it's good fun and normally get it vice versa, it's camaraderie, but there's no way I'm just "chatting about football" when they mention they support Luton without having a few digs, that would be insane. I've never ever had someone react like that in my life was my point.
And he’s probably had no one start banging on about their toilet when he says he supports Luton. I’m with cabbie on this one. Just seems pathetic. But that’s just me.
I think if you take personal offence to someone saying that Kenilworth is a toilet you're both incredibly boring and take your life far too seriously, but that's just me. You're essentially telling me you'd take actual personal insult to someone calling the Vic a dump which is just ridiculous.
I wouldn’t care. But if you’re a stranger it’s just rude and hints at aggression. Like I said pathetic.
Hints at aggression hahaha, read what you're saying here. I have no idea how you interact with people but that is utterly tragic, especially given it was clearly tongue in cheek.
Yeah you sure make us all laugh. It’s just unintelligent posturing. Do you actually think you are amusing people? My wife is from Newcastle so you can say the city is a s***hole and we can all have a big belly laugh at your humour. You’re just a throwback embarrassment to be honest.
Dear me you must be fun at parties. Clearly take your life a little too seriously don't you? Checked the blood pressure recently? May be time to hit the hay before you keep embarrassing yourself!
The objective fact is someone threw you (a paying customer) out of cab because you were being an idiot. And you then boast about it on a football forum and expect people to applaud. But sure - of course I am the one embarrassing myself.
Clearly wasn't an idiot given I was unfortunate enough to bump into an oversensitive loon (and another one on this forum clearly) and never wanted applause. Let's leave it there, or feel free to message me personally for whatever reason.
Nothing was worse than those, cleaned every leap year. I remember the smell more than anything...which in fairness could have been anywhere in that town.
I realise it’s a pretty **** time to be alive and we’re all probably pretty annoyed at the world right now, but can we all stop getting so sensitive about little perceived indiscretions. I don’t know if it’s because the politics section has closed. But three-quarters of threads at the moment are totally unrelated to the subject matter (or cheese) and it’s making this forum a far more tedious place (when trying to escape all of the other boring crap). Please don’t stop being opinionated about the club. The over the top contrasting views on here are entertaining. But the second posts get personal, any perceived higher ground is lost along with the argument. And then everyone has to ignore pointless back and forths that they have absolutely zero interest in.
