I guess any criticism of him would depend on who did what… If it was him that deemed it a clear foul but hit he needed the linesman to clarify whether it was in the box or not, then it’s not his error. But he may have said he knew it was in the box but asked the linesman if the defender got a touch on the ball.
Baah is an absolute monster tw*t. An idiot. An immature bell*end. We play Portsmouth away 3rd last game of the season and they now have every incentive to want to smash us. We could well need to win that game to keep in the playoffs spots and Pompey could easily have their season finished and playing youngsters, but not now. It's akin to playing the Deeney goal on the big screens before we played Leicester and that was all the incentive they needed. We must be the most f***ing dumb club in the history of stupidity. Moron.
The best song we had by far was Ighalo. I imagine someone did it first but it did feel we got there early and no matter how many times other clubs copied it, ours was best by far. Apart from that, slim pickings.
I really don't think you should sit on the fence on matters like these. Come on, what do you really think?
Liked especially for point 5 and your unorthodox, yet still precise, numbering. I applaud your foray into the wacky world of MoogMaths. For those who missed it you were equally precise on the Shoutbox at a particularly low point in the game that "we will win this". Well called Sir! Generous to our Jezza, first point 3, with those highlights in that case. I preferred the name the Burnley commentary team gave our right back during last Saturday's game. Unable to use the letters given to his name both of them called him "Knackier" throughout without hinting as to whom he was more knacked than!
Hopefully on Easter Monday Baah scores a 94th minute winner in front of the home fans to relegate them
My main thought about the Baah incident is that he’s far too old to be playing the same computer games and learning the dance from it, as my 11yr old nephew.
Over 650 million registered users of which 62.7% of players are between 18 and 24 according to a quick Google search.
Getting booked and suspended after the final whistle is incredibly stupid regardless of how it happened, especially when we’ve just won the game. He’s still inexperienced and will hopefully learn from it. TC seems to be pretty good at man management.
Did we have any subs left to come on after our winner? In hindsight might have been a good time to have removed Baah. Although I guess of course that wouldn’t have stopped him coming on the pitch at full-time.
The only way they'll get to the third last game of the season with nothing to play for is if they are relegated by then!
I absolutely love how TC has dealt with the reactions. After admonishing Baah for his actions, he tells the press what he thought of the Portsmouth tactics and their behaviour. This from the wobby: “I have to be careful what I say, but it seems like he [their manager] is very focussed on my team,” Cleverley responded. “They had a clear game plan of not making it a game of football. “Part of that may have been to start trying to get reactions out of my players. “There were points in the game I actually felt sorry for our supporters that had paid money to see this, with the lack of football that was being played. “The time-wasting, the moaning at the referee, the creating melees. “But I’m glad our fans got the return for their money at the end of the game.” What I put in bold is why I love Tom Cleverley right now. He started out in his new job with the intention of making our home form strong. And he has done well in that so far. But he is still intent on making the experience of watching Watford one of entertainment and satisfaction. It’s still early days, and it’s a very different era. So I say this tentatively: but comparisons with GT are not inappropriate in my opinion.
Well put . He carries himself really well as a manager, honest and forthright . Clearly was watching closely how Ferguson worked in his playing days .
I made the point because I've seen enough of JN to know he's awful, but he did 2 or 3 OK things in that clip.
Since he's come back from injury he's looked pretty good overall. I thought he had a dec game yesterday.
I've always enjoyed trips to the South Coast, but two of their football teams and fans ... Pompey looked like clones of Eddie Howe's Bournemouth. Two Muffs is two too many!
