Watford away match thread

[sh1t_ref_again]

Lot of negative comments / individuals, think we have played well and just not had the luck Watford have

[old_eastender]

JD consistently been crossing behind our players in the box today.

[Lanterne Rouge]

QPR two down now. Has anyone ever imploded like they have this season before?

[cityexile]

Sometimes when you lose two or three nil, you are complete crap and never in the game. It’s not been like that at all as we have always been in the match, Failed to score, two defensive screw ups and that is that. Disappointing as frankly Watford look quite poor and were there for the taking. Never mind, does not really matter, it is what it is.

[ProfitInMyPocket]

Can't say we haven't had the chances to win this game and more today.

Why did Weimann not let that go for a corner?

Three down. As it stands a very decent point for Reading v Burnley, if it stays as is.

[old_eastender]

another great opportunity goes begging as Wells cannot sort his feet out.

I think the gas did some years ago lost 10 of their last 11 matches I believe.

[Lanterne Rouge]

Marlon Pack gets an equaliser for Pompey at Shrews. He`ll probably say sorry to Cotts after the game!

QPR 3 down now

[Peter1450]

Our general play is ok, we just look like we couldn’t hit the proverbial barn door even if it wasn’t there.

He's been very quiet again.  I forgot he was still on the pitch

Yes, nailed on for the playoffs under Hollowhead(?) and ended up missing out on the last day.

Maybe because he knows that another poorly executed short corner wouldn't do us any good 

[Andy082005]

Really frustrating watch that.  Two very below average Championship teams 

We need a fair few additions if we are even going to talk about top 6 next year

Us in the Holden/ Pearson season?

Oh how we laughed!

[RedorDead BCFC]

I know they’re beating us, but with their players they’ve got they are shite. 

[Banjo Red]

2 goals that were avoidable onwards and upwards.

Frustrating, as have been the better team for large periods today. Two poor goals gifted to them, and too many missed chances

[The Coach]

Can’t rely on AW to help push us for top 10. Either becomes a squad player or has to go.  Not good enough for the next phase.

[Mr Popodopolous]

It's sketchy as to whether Watford even merit a point let alone a 2 goal win.

Sometimes it's not your day.

[ProfitInMyPocket]

Would like to see Sykes, Scott and Conway come in for the remaining games. Weimann and Wells levels have dropped off.

Had plenty of chances today, looked really blunt when it came to the final ball or the final effort.

Puts things into context I suppose

Can analyse the death out if it, but simply comes down to that. Played some decent stuff, beat ourself in the end.

We go back and sideways in the latter stages of game when we're losing far too much, just wasting our own time.

Exactly! Why don’t we just run up the other end and score. So frustrating

He's a smaller person, he's not going to throw his body into players because he'd come off worse than they would, commanding is taking the initiative to go for the ball which is exactly what he does and that Bentley never did because he was always too scared of messing it up. Bentley was an amazing shot-stopper but he was gutless in commanding his area and that's partly why Max is in the team, because despite being a smaller, less solid man he still does for the ball more than Bentley.

I'm coming from a is he good enough to take us forward view, rather than comparing him with Bentley. He certainly goes for it more than him, which is preferable, but that on it's own isn't enough. He sometimes hesitates and finds himself no mans land, that's what I mean about commanding. He isn't physically big/strong enough for us to go to the next step. Just my observation, but I don't hate him !

[Gazred]

Well, that felt very undeserved. Given the context of the game, no reason at all to feel negative after that.

Roll on Sheff U.

[pillred]

Another bloody gas pen.

[Red Army 75]

Leaving the ground now. City second half very poor. A lot of the ball all game but no product.
