    Having watched that game, I've arrived at the conclusion that Gino should pull us out of the EPL and join Serie A. We'd walk it...

    An Inter Milan supporter friend suggesting we'd quite easily be top 10 in Italy !

    Not sure if he was behind kind after watching us lose at Arsenal ..

    Lasagne just missed a very good 1-on-1 chance after using his pace to get behind the Inter defence to a wonderful through ball from de Paul.

    oh dear. 0-3.

    A good reason to switch over to watch the Championship deciding games.

    They leant us Vydra, Abdi, Angella, Pudil etc to help us to promotion. Time we returned the favour. Next year we can loan them TD, Holebas, Zeegelaar, Pants, Wague etc.

    SPAL and chievo both winning. Not looking good for the Zebras. Cagliari playing later. Would be one point outside the relegation spots with 2 to play and Cagliari below them having a game in hand. The run they are on its hard to see them averting this slide...

    I can't believe the Udinese fans were chanting 'that Arsene Wenger, he's won more than you' at Papa Pozzo.

    That need a big dose of perspective, they didn't even have a club in 1894.

    Although Cagliari's remaining fixtures are all against top half teams, so they could be just as likely to lose them all.

    Udinese fans are probably praying for exactly that as their team doesn't look capable of picking up any more points.

    17th now out of relegation places by a single point. I think it works in our favour having Udinese in the top tier of Italy so I hope they somehow survive

    Yeah, it's just a thought mind but Watford would be lucky to be in the third tier of England were it not for Udinese.

    It's ridiculous to speculate on what might have been. Maybe we'd have been bought by a billionaire and be top of the league. That's just as possible as us being in the third tier.

    Udinese fans absolutely despise our club, and I'm happy to reciprocate. It's laughable to see all the people on here cheering them on. They hate you!

    Disagree. Far more likely that money goes from us to them considering the vast gulf in income. We're one of the richest teams in the world now.

    We are miles better than them. None of their players are anywhere near good enough for us now. They are now nothing more than a parasite suckling on our teat.

    And their fans are absolute scum

    I don't know if this has been mentioned before but Udinese have a striker called Kevin Lasagna

    I agree, but what if they go down who will be funding their promotion campaign?

    They need to stay up, and do well so they get more money. Plus, they funded our promotion so it reciprocity it pretty reasonable

    They funded our existence from the start...without the loans...Abdi, Vydra, Ekstrand, Fessi & Poodle - we'd have struggled that first season...damn I miss that team.

    I don't know why some want Udinese to get relegated. If they go down we will likely purchase all their star players, which will obviously affect our transfer and wage budget next season which will be less than ideal.
