These Watford fans going on like they're this footballing goliath....you’re eighth. You’re having a good season, congratulations, but regardless of how amazing you perceive your ownership to be (you’ll find out they’re no different to anyone else’s in time) that’s all you are.

Football is cyclical, look at Leicester, Leeds, Nottingham Forest. So I’d be very careful before you make predictions about what direction you’re going in because you could very well find yourself finishing seventh one season (better then eighth) then be in a relegation scrap the next.

Imagine that!

Let them have their moment in the sun :) remember a couple of years ago after the Payet season and ground move we had all the West Ham fans in here telling us they were going to challenge for top 4 and trophies and we would never finish above them again...

I just think it’s hilarious how these teams start having a good season and suddenly fans think they’re this great force, totally blind to the myriad of other teams and fans who have done the exact same thing. Overachieved.

I mean it’s a lovely place to be when you think everything about a club is great, but in reality it is seldom true.
 
I see the papers are reporting that if we continue our persuit of Silva, Watford will report us to the FA. With the crap the FA seem to be throwing at us within regards to the Niasse incident I can see them throwing the book at us for this too.

I live down south so I'm around a lot more fans of other clubs than probably most on here and I was already being given the big one by a Newcastle fan this year after they had a decent start to the season!

They're gonna grass us up to mum, bet Moshiri is dead scared. Probably to the same level as when PSG get a slap on the wrist fine for breaking FFP.
 
Silva is intelligent. He won't come here when he knows the likes of Arsenal and Man Utd will come in for him in a year or two.

I wouldn't go near the Everton job whilst my Watford side are flying.

I remember when Martinez and Koeman were going to Barcelona If we didn’t get them tied down to new contracts. He’s been in the league all of about five minutes, he hasn’t experienced hardship yet :coffee:

Watford have had a good start to the season, but is this going to continue all season ?
We have seen plenty of teams start well and after a while they begin to fade away because the players they have get found out and they don't have the squad to change players around. Watford will finish in the top half... probably but is that enough to get the Arsenal job. We did not expect to be looking at Silva as the next Everton manager we thought our sights were now set higher but the chaos in the club has brought us to this . I think there is a lot of talent in the Everton squad for the right manager and much more money to spend .

How well would Watford be doing if they were missing players like Coleman, Bolasie, Funes Mori, McCarthy and Barkley from their team, would they be able to cope any better than we are. I am not questioning Silva as a manager, but the league is a marathon and not a sprint. We will have most of the players mentioned above back for the second half of the season.

If you look at the squad of players at Watford and at Everton and were given a choice of picking just one which would you pick ?
I think it would comfortably be the Everton squad which a good manager could get playing again as it did last year when finishing seventh. The transfer window is just four weeks away now as well.

We know we are in a mess at the moment, if we were not we would not be looking for a manager, but, there is a lot right at the club with some very good players, some really good youngsters and money to spend.
