    What a great time to be a Watford fan!

    Lovely article in the Telegraph.
    It highlights the chaos of Watford FC nicely
    I don't think Gino, Papa Pozzo , Duxbury or the players will care about it.

    Boro certainly found their mojo tonight .

    I didn't know that! But does make a lot of sense, lots of teams use the dark arts (blocking etc) these days in the Championship from set-pieces - I noticed Sarr even be a blocker against Preston the other week that was executed pretty well. And without the luxury of VAR to rely on after the event it's logical for them to do their research on what to expect beforehand.

    Boro 5-1 up but BBC stats say Boro 6 chances 5 on target. Norwich 11 chances 3 on target.
    Weird score.

    Boro just more clinical.

    Must have been a bit awkward for Ben Gibson doing the punditry !

    Mind you probably better than playing in that .

    Blackburn being held - no-one seems keen on that 6th place.

    Guess they'd only lost to Luton or Boro.

    Both Blackburn and Millwall, the teams in the play-offs we had a realistic chance of catching not long ago, have ONE win in the last nine games between them.

    Really annoying we haven't properly taken advantage...

    Massive win for Wigan on the cards if they can hold on. Sunderland drawing, WBA coasting and Millwall losing. We need to win tomorrow as it stands to even go level on points with Sunderland. Rotherham giving Burnley a good game, looks like Sheff Utd are all but up.

    No one seems to take a grip of that 5th/6th spot.

    West Brom suddenly in the top 6.

    Sounds like Bristol City were unlucky to lose again.

    That Brummie number 2 keeper, Etheridge, looks very decent.

    Millwall have only scored 2 goals in their last 6 games, and they were both in the same game, ******* hell how are we still in this race?

    This is just going to make it so much more painful - we'll probably miss out on GD or by a single point at this rate.

    How have West Brom got up there, they were on fire when Corberan first got there but it's not as if they've done much since!

    BTW Yeovil have just heen relegated from the National League to follow Scunthorpe - two teams that inflicted on us two of our most embarrassing results at this level.

    I just looked at the divisions below to see who they could be playing - Weston-super-Mare just need another two points to make it a derby next season.

    Dunno but their run in looks pretty challenging. If they end up in the play offs they’d be worth backing to win them.

    Still pretty inconsistent though, they recently threw away a two-goal lead at home to a QPR who've been the worst side since October and lost at Rotherham.
