He's not match fit. He's had no training during the summer to get fit. He will start when he's fit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted August 26, 2018 Share Posted August 26, 2018 I feel we have been unlucky to have three points after three games. Apart from the first 15-20 minutes of the second half I felt our overall play was very good. Unfortunately over the course of the season we will play teams that score goals like Watford did. I don't think anybody would have any complaints if we took a point today. In fact if we played another five minutes I reckon we would have scored a goal. That miss from Joel Ward where I was looked criminal. As for Watford, I hate playing these shit rag teams that are clogging up this league with their dirty stomping studded tackles and getting away with it because the refs are utterly incompetent. I counted five stomps in the first ten minutes. It just strengthens my opinion that we need to attract the best refs from overseas to replace the mediocre bunch we have. All the attention will be '3 in 3 for Watford' now which should work in everybody else's favour. It's really not highlighting the fact they are a very limited side that will run out of steam in the second half of the season for the fourth season running because they cannot get away with their style of play for 38 games.

After 4 they'd won 2 and drawn 2. Year before they were 7th after 10 games which again is a pretty strong start. Even in 2015/16 they were 7th after 18 games. They always seem to have a better first half of the season than second. It's actually as much finishing badly as anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ Posted August 27, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted August 27, 2018 I see they also had a run of one win, one draw and seven defeats in a nine game period. No prizes for guessing their one win. Did not realise they hadn't won away since late November until last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
