What would everyone's thoughts be on Heurelho Gomes coming to the club? He's out of contract at Spurs. He's 33 so not over the hill, prone to a gaffe but would you be happy to see him come in?
It's a no from me. He may have been good at one point but I don't really see him quite having the impact that Almunia had here. I would like the see Watford sign Craig Gordon though because I reckon he could still be class despite his injuries
People are genuinely saying no out of hand to Gomes. People. No. Out of hand. Gomes. Hand. Gomes. No.
It's not us. There isn't that hideous animated crest behind him. (Although that room does look eeringly familiar) Then there is this comment: romualdozeze parabéns @hdgomes vc vai ser vencedor no watford tbm como vc foi em todos clubes q passou amigo My Portuguese is a bit scratchy but I believe 'watford' translates into Watford in English
Using instagram translate button: romualdozeze Congratulations @ hdgomes vc tbm will be winner in watford was like you went in all clubs q friend ...which truthfully is meaningless because anyone can send him an instagram. This one made me laugh hexx1980 YES! Now **** off and stop stealing the wage.
It's now confirmed Watch now for those who slate a player rather than getting behind him and seeing what we have signed

As much as the man is an unbearable ******, Holly68 is, somehow, very much itk. A ****ing ****. But itk. Gomes is an outstanding signing for the Championship I think. Looking forward to more equally shrewd signings.
One year deal with option to extend. Very good business and good news for Bondy. Go out on loan and show if you can challenge for that number 1 jersey Or stay and take your opportunity if it arises, bit like Darlow at florist
I don't agree. He deletes tweets as quickly as posting them. I think he's a gambler as let's be honest, if Gomes hadn't signed, no one would have cared. You won't see Holly68 say 'we are signing Harry Maguire' for example as people would care about that.
Not sure about this one Now this has been why no official announcement about Lloyd Dyer, maybe he hasn't yet officially signed
The day I started this thread he was at the ground. It looks like it isn't as simple as Stech first choice, Gomes back up.
I've never personally actually seen him get anything wrong tbh, he deletes all of his tweets. And nobody, absolutely nobody had mentioned Gomes. Maybe he does get things wrong, but the sarcastic cries on here were misguided. There is something in what he says when it comes to transfer info.
I hope he is not as injury prone as Almunia was in the last 12 months. Think another keeper will be needed as cover as Bond must now go out on a year loan. It will do him no good at all to sit on the bench for another year.
All in all I think he might just work out to be a good signing, and I was reading somewhere he has been a club captain, so I wonder if he might step into Almunia's shoes as captain as well?
