The official Watford FC v Bristol City FC in the FA Cup Match Day Thread

15:31

GREAT SAVE!

Watford 0-0 Bristol City

Tom Cleverley burts into the penalty area, latching on to the end of Watford's best move so far, but keeper Luke Steele saves it with his legs for Bristol City - who made seven changes this afternoon.

Such a card is Keith. Talking about some scaffolding named after him 

Yes, he does like to give himself the big build up.

Anyone else think we haven’t put out TOO bad a team? Don’t get me wrong, it’s very weakened and a win would be ridiculous. But that back four isn’t too bad, and Taylor and Woodrow up front is ok...

Relative to Watford this is lambs to the slaughter.

Also sounds like Elliasen , Taylor and Woodrow are not exactly giving LJ a selection headache for Tuesday .

We have four fringe, and 3 squad players playing. You might normally want to bring in a youngster to a full side, but to bring them all in together means they also need to get to know each other in a real match. Even being close is a great result, and smashing experience for a wide range of players.

And I think they said Watford have only made three changes so their team must be a fairly strong one.

If Burnley win it will unfortunately raise the importance of our match and means they’ll put out a better side. 

 

Would take a draw...

[JBFC II]

1-0, oh well

It feels weird to not really care when City concede.

Just hope we avoid a replay

Is it the QPR game we are hoping for a QPR win so that we get a Saturday off for round 4?

If we lose, of course.
