hahaha same.

Flores has quit Watford eh. Hopefully just a bad coincidence.

He's not quit yet rather Watford did not renew his contract and he was unable to 'meet the criteria' to force an automatic renewal.

Anyway, I can't see him ever being a serious option if what The Esk says is correct, so I wouldn't worry about it in the slightest.

Slightly off topic though, if you read about Flores then Watford fans are pretty 50/50 on him: great start but pretty woeful after Christmas.

Thanks for letting us know, Mark. Not that we wanted you in the first place mind.

I am also not interested in the job. (You worthless tosser)

The fella on the right Ray.

I mean clearly it looks nothing like he does NOW!

Personally I'm pretty apathetic about them neither liking or disliking then. But, it does seem somewhat ridiculous that they've released him.

Even with his poor run after Christmas he has ensured their comfortable survival, reached an FA Cup semi-final and made them look a good team.

Yet it's something like their tenth manager in five years so I'm not too surprised with their decision!

Oh. Ta.

No worries. From all account he's highly thought of in footballing circles and is known for developing academy systems and attracting big names.

Fans have no sense of proportion. On here goading us after drawing with us in the first game of the season. You drew. Congratulations!! Absolutely convinced they were going to be pressing for Europe in their first season up. Sooner they go back down and get a sense of proportion, the better.

There's also the very real prospect of a Director of Football being appointed, integrating all of the junior levels with the senior side - an extremely valuable asset if this proves to be the case

Nice of the Echo to catch up
