I don't think the previous manager leaving came as a shock to anyone inside the club. He didn't communicate with the players, did it all through the physio. He actually told the players at the start of the season through the translating physio "I don't want to talk to any of you this year."
Confident insignificant little club in shitty suburbia aren't they?
Yeah that's what I thought. Someone from WATFORD taking the p out of the O2 and the Cutty Sark. Hahaha. And I've just noticed they've got Gomes in goal. Might change my prediction from 2-0 to 3-0 win for us.
I reckon this is our toughest test yet. If we win, I will start to be quite optimistic about challenging for the play offs this season. With Deeney and the pacey Vydra giving TBH and Bikey a tough time I can see quite a few goals in this one. I'm going for 2-2.
Gudmunsson going injury , Igor arrived back at 13.30 yesterday no problems so will be find to start but Fredrick Bulot as just got back to Paris at 7.03 this morning ?
Hard fought 2-2 late equaliser but not sure by which team.
Penalty in the 1st half so the idiot in front if me in Row A in upper west will stand up blocking the girl behind me's view, if I stand up, cue another argument.
It's hard to reconcile Watford's poor away record (2 wins in 21) with their level of firepower. A draw is perhaps the most likely outcome but who knows.
I hope we get a decent turnout of home fans. Perhaps the good start and the two week gap will have whetted the appetite.
I feel like an 8 year old boy on Christmas Eve today, the last game I went to was the Watford home game last year. I couldn't go to Blackpool and the way it worked out with my holiday this year meant that I went away before the brentford game and came back the day after the Brighton game. Was gutted to find there was an international break when it got back as I am craving live footy!
Now overall in the 7 games I have missed this year (can't remember how long ago it was that I missed 7 in a row!!) we have done pretty well! However, I am coming so we will lose, fact!
2-0 Addicks...match thread (If one is required) from 2 pm........I understand the game may be on a 'live' stream somewhere, so a decision as whether to do a match thread will wait until I know if most are watching it.

Living in the West Midlands I am only able to get to the Valley on few occasions and tomorrow is one of them, really looking forward to seeing the new style of football being played this season and the close season signings. We will win 3 - 1 and I'll have a happy return rail journey to the Worcester homestead.

Yes please Red
Sorry Red, just noticed you said there could be a live stream, teach me to read the whole comment, if there is one I will hopefully watching it, will see tomorrow
I had a very weird and vivid dream last night that my mum had forgotten to wake me up for the game and when I awoke and looked at my phone and it was 5:30pm, I remember I was livid, frantically searching on BBC sport for the result, I saw we had lost 2-0. Then I went on hear and read on the post match views thread that Henderson was the only one who played well. The weird thing was we had lost to Derby, not Watford. A very strange dream, woke up feeling very relieved that it was only Friday.
So given that that dream has absolutely no relevance to tomorrow, I am going to go for a 2-0 CAFC win!
Pretty confident Igor will start, backing him to get another goal at least. He is oozing confidence at the moment. Got a feeling Moussa could step up tomorrow too. A first real test of our squad not just our starting XI. Optimistic as ever but certainly is going to be a toughy. Hopeful their new gaffer hasn't had time to settle yet and we catch them off guard. COYR.
I would like us to pack the midfield and only have Igor up front but I guess it will be 4-4-2 again. Watford do have a good record against us and with a new manager I think they will win 3-1 in a close game.
They all fancy a win or a draw. I think some of them are in for a shock though. Some guy said he only rates JJ and Igor. Really does show how much people underestimate our team.
True. That annoyed me. They are basically saying that everyone in our team except JJ and Igor must be pants because they haven't heard of them. Hope we cane 'em

My fault if we lose...!

Igor
Harriott cousins jj buyens Wilson
Wiggins tbh bikey solly
Hendo
Assuming Gudmundsson is injured!
Changing to a 4411 when in attack with CH join gig Igor up top and cousins moving to the left..
I am possibly being a little negative but I think it would be naive of Bob to underestimate this team.. who would be my bet for the title..
My favourite away day was the 4-3 on NYD. Would take the same scoreline.
