    This is what I think for what little it is worth.

    1) bad news sacking SD? Possibly, since he had such a good first season. No guarantee it could be repeated as it depends on players, injuries, funds etc. most of the naysayers were applauding him come the end of the season. Change = worry we know that.

    2) GZ a good choice? Who knows these are exactly the same things we were saying about SD this time last year. OK he had an indifferent time with West Ham. He got them up then got sacked when they were in the bottom half and in danger of going down. Think Billy Davies, Neil Warnock and others I am sure. Championship success does not guarantee premiership skills. If GZ gets us up who says we would not also look for a better manager to keep us up.

    3) Comms. These things take a while to get sorted. They will tell us when they have something concrete to tell us. Let's face it from day one it has been apparent they wanted GZ for the job so it isn't like we didn't know that. Look at Spurs and Liverpool and even Chelsea. How long was the speculation going on about numerous manager choices with probably no comma to the fans. At least we knew who they wanted. They just have to announce it now.

    So am I concerned - yes always a worry at the start of a season as to how will we do. Will I be supporting the team and management - of course they haven't done anything wrong - yet! Will I be booking a ticket for our pre-season match against Udinese. Oh yes! Might as well get an early view of the loan players we will be getting this year!!
    not sure he took them up."

Watford refusing to comment on whether Gianfranco Zola has replaced Sean Dyche

Watford are refusing to comment on whether Sean Dyche has been replaced as manager by Gianfranco Zola.

Zola has been linked with the Hornets' job for several weeks and sources told the Watford Observer last week that Dyche would indeed be replaced.

We understand Dyche was in the club offices yesterday and it has been widely reported that the former centre half has been replaced by Zola.

However, Watford are still refusing to comment on the matter.
