    Yep, his best season was the last promotion one, where him and that gurning GoPro clown were competing for the starting spot each week.

    Didn't see his save (singular!) in the first half, but those were two big saves at the death there

    Maybe he’s not as bad as many said he was?!

    He is. Still managed to get a good flap in towards the end. The saves he made were routine for a Championship keeper.

    But kept a clean sheet for the second game running. He’s not a Premier League keeper but that doesn’t matter anymore, he is though, more than capable at the league we’re in.
    Shouldn’t be captain though

    Do you mean the cross that Hoedt headed away late on? That could have been Hoedt's fault, Bachmann is usually very good telling his defence when to head the ball away!

    Welded to his line again

    In a way it would have been better if he were, he started to come out for their goal, then went back, and then again for their chance soon after

    Probably he's looked at our upcoming fixtures and shat the bed.

    It’s terrible news if true. Hamer is a dreadful keeper as Filbert has told on in many occasions. Looked ok on Saturday as we were playing a pub team and he had virtually nothing to do.

    He’ll certainly have much tougher tests to come !

    So , the most 2 important areas in a team, we discuss which player is the best of a bad bunch ?
    Come January do we think it is in these areas that will be strengthened or will another South American
    teenage whizzkid be unveiled ?

    In rare cases, people who've sustained head injuries can spontaneously develop new abilities and talents, such as becoming fluent in a language they've never previously heard of.

    It's slim, but there is a remote possibility that Bachman may return from his injury with the new-found ability to leave his line and deal with crosses.

    I dunno, he says "maybe I shouldn't have come off my line" so now he never will, rather than...never.

    More likely he can now shout "AWAY" in Swahili but here's to hoping...

    Well that's definitely going to stop him coming off his line for crosses.

    As he shouts ‘away, away’ in Klingon?
    EDIT: Swahili it is then; maybe Klingon was a stretch too far.

    Yes, he's rarely able to Klingon to anything these days.

    Does seem to get involved too much with the officials.

    I can forgive giving away a penalty. Mistakes happen and we were already a goal down. Losing his head yet again and being booked for dissent immediately after is not as forgivable. He's not a young player who should learn from that. He's our Captain. He's experienced and expected to be leading by example in action and words.

    He has yet again let Watford down on multiple accounts and I'm now for stripping him of Captaincy as this is multiple instances of Bachmann doing this. This is not how a Captain behaves.

    He was booked on 83’ for dissent and then again for the foul for the penalty.

    From the stands it looked like it was for the penalty then dissent immediately after. If that was the case then I'll retract what I said as Captains should be allowed to talk to the referee about decisions.

    Hamer Time!

    Thought he did alright against a toothless Rotherham but I do expect Norwich to come at us. Bachmann was clearly not over his knock to the head.

    Glad he's OK after what sounded like a bad concussion, but he's a helmet.

    He was already on a booking from the "dissent" on 83 minutes. The penalty was his second yellow.

    He was justified in talking to the ref as well I think as it was definitely a dodgy decision by the ref in allowing a poor tackle from Vardy on Hoedt.

    Seems Val doesn’t agree.
