Looks like a proper stadium IMO. The only things I really dislike about the Amex are the single tiers behind the goals.

QPR will find 20,000 fans like Brighton found 15,000 fans.

My favourite thing about Old Trafford this year is how many tears are behind the goals.

Superb win for Wigan against Bolton, seems like Uwe Rosler knows his stuff.

They out-played us completely in the first half, but the second was one-way traffic for the most part. They certainly like passing the ball, but there are defensive frailties there for sure, their heads dropped noticeably after the first Bolton goal. If they can get a good defender or two in Jan they'll make the play-offs for sure though, whilst I think mid-table's about as good as we're going to get.

His resignation letter is so heartfelt, he is obviously devastated by the poor performances recently. The directors were apparently reluctant to let him go. I hope he gets another managerial role and does well, he's had us playing some great football at times.

From Gianfranco Zola to all Watford supporters:

I am writing this today with a very heavy heart and after a lot of consideration, to tell you that I have resigned from my Head Coach position at Watford.

First of all, this decision has not been made quickly. I mentioned after the game on Saturday that I wanted to think about things overnight and that is exactly what I have done.

I must place Watford Football Club first in my thoughts and it is for this reason that I have taken my action.

I feel that it is in the best interests of the team that somebody new is given the chance to bring the success which we have all hoped for and worked very hard for.

It is for a variety of reasons, and not just over one matter or one moment, that I feel this is the right decision for me, in the best interests of the club - and I know I can trust you, the supporters, to respect my decision fully.

Last season was such an amazing time, for the players, the staff and the supporters. And I loved that journey. Every minute of it brought a new challenge, different experiences and a lot of learning.

I have had supporters tell me that the Leicester game in May was the most amazing moment in their time supporting their club.

I will always remember having been welcomed so warmly to this wonderful football club, to have been supported so fully and to have been able to share moments of excitement and joy that will always live with me.

But this game does not wait and does not stop. There is always the next challenge and a new environment ahead which means nothing is ever the same.

For now, I want to wish the players, the staff, the fans and everyone else who has Watford Football Club at heart my best wishes for the future.

It has been a privilege and a pleasure to serve this club and I am sure we will see each other again one day.

Best wishes,

Gianfranco

This. I remember going to the Withdean towards the end of Brighton's holiday there and it would only be 2/3rds full. It's not that people in the city didn't care, but they were just happier to go to a lovely new stadium and support a club that's moving forward. Nobody enjoys away trips to QPR's legoland arena currently.

I'm cautiously optimistic about mystery Italian manager Sannino, he seems to have lots of experience and if he can get our players, who tbh are actually pretty good, playing any sort of decent cohesive football then I think we still have a shot at making the playoffs.

He has a decent record in Italy, he was just cut short by one of the mental chairmen, I think it was Zamparini. So more experience than Zola, however he probably doesn't speak english (Pochettino but this myth to bed though)
