    We've just scraped past Derby's record low points tally with 34 games to spare.

    Despite today's loss, I'm sticking with a No.

    Only 2 points above Muff now. This losing streak could cost us. Fulham is now a must win.

    The freefall has started earlier than recent seasons. I'd say we have pretty much had it. Arsenal is a must win game.

    Only if we avoid results like Saturday.

    I hope so. The day we go down I'll celebrate very well.

    Home vs Muff was a must win game.
    Wolves away is now a must win game.

    I will be making a tidy profit from the wolves game. It's quite literally going to be free money.

    3-0 to Wolves. What odds did you get ?

    I'm not risking a correct score bet but I reckon our "great start" will see wolves at around evens to win outright. It's free money!

    Not looking likely at present.

    What happened to this "free money" ?

    Apart from that Bournemouth defeat, we have looked good in nearly all our matches. This tells me we are able to produce consistent performances which will lead to good results.

    Hopefully we'll beat Huddersfield on Saturday. If that's the case, then we'll have 19 points from 10 games. That half the points total needed to stay up from about a quarter of the matches played.

    It would be a long shot to expect any club in that position to end up relegated, unless something unforeseen occurs which will dramatically change their fortunes.

    So, with all being equal, Watford should finish at least mid-table, if not higher if we bring in some additional talent in the January window.
     
  21. 40/1 with skybet.

    Easy money.

    50-1 with some others (Bet365 / BetVictor / 188Bet)

    1/6 with MersonBet.

    Odds shortening then - he's not as confident now is he :(

    Is he allowing for December/January ‘Glass Mockasin’ season with those odds?

    Easy to be wise after the event. Didn't see many of you predicting a 0-2 at Wolves.

    Shane Warne did.

    I see Lawro is losing to the motley series of singers you've not quite heard of & Strictly stars in the predictions game season to date.

    You are forgetting that we down tools as soon as we get to about 35 points before limping over the line. Jan to May won't be a lot of fun.

    I suggest the club demand the players turn up every Monday for pre-season training, that should do the trick!

    Would be funny if it wasn't true. We all know that's exactly what will happen.

    Unexpectedly it seems there is a reasonable amount of dross in the division this time. Will be our easiest PL year yet. Part & parcel of 4th season syndrome.

    We played well at Wolves because it was warm and sunny. No coincidence that our best ever start matches exactly with our best ever summer. What was the weather like against Bournemouth? Oh yes, wet and very cold and we absolutely bombed.

    This team are fair weather footballers. If its cold on Saturday bet the farm on Huddersfield

    If we do too well we will have points deducted for playing an ineligible mascot. Harry is not the Harry at the start of the season. Best to lose to Huddersfield to keep the suits happy.

    It's just another reason to want Gracia out of the club as far as I'm concerned. The Wolves result cost me £10. And if we stay up I stand to lose even more money.
