So hopefully we can now off load Troy ... remember we are still a family club (albeit Italian family Pozzo), and we don't need convicted thugs in our team !! Time to move onwards and upwards !

Well, well, well...its been an interesting couple of weeks hasn't it! So how are all of you doom and gloom mongers? Little Old Watford are on the rise...in response to corbindallas, we need the following: GK, RB, LB, CB, CM, RM, LM, CM, CM, CF, CF and about 3 new members of staff!! I'm hearing some good rumours...like:-

Carlo Cudicini, Jordan Rhodes, Matthew Etherington, Neuton...but I am not naive. I anticpate a load of foreign unknowns coupled with some strong free transferred players.

I would hope the delay in info now is to allow Zola and co to see exactly what they have and need to take the club forward. Hopefully who does stay or comes in is an improvement.

Maybe it is time for Chambo to go. So many people moan about how rubbish our goalkeepers are... Richard Lee, Scott Loach... Even some people moaned about Ben Foster. Just a thought.

Away from the conviction, you need to luck at Deeney as a player. Can he pass and link-up play? No. Can he shoot? No. Can he dribble? No. Can we rely on him to score the goals to get us up? No. Does he fit into a side playing passing football? No. Can he run around a lot? Yes. Is that good enough? No.

The fact that some people moaned about Foster tells you all you need to know about those people. Loach fair enough... Alec hasn't done wonders for him. But I don't think you can blame Alec for Richard Lee being too short!!!

Now that we have some potential for new signings or loans please lets not get all arrogant about things. I thought as a club we were better than that!

The way people talk about players and managers is ridiculous when you remember the vitriol poured at Malky on this forum when he left - well loyalty should work two ways.

Sean has now gone and some people even try to belittle his (and his staff and players) achievements from last season.

Yes there will be inevitable changes in personnel but to bad mouth Alec Chamberlain (a servant of the club of both good and long standing) makes me sick quite frankly.

My point isnt that I dont want a decent team but I want a decent club. The club that Graham Taylor built (and lets be honest he did build it) was based on hard working players and honesty and respect from everyone at the club for everyone else. He even came out with a banner saying sorry to the Vicarage Road end when he felt his comments had gone too far. That is the club I support, that is the club I want. That part of the club isnt in either the owners or the managers hands it is in the hands of us the supporters who can dare to be something different to the neanderthals that some clubs call fans! Cue abuse and allegations of clapping I'm sure but this is the part of the clubs identity that is at least as important as what goes on on the pitch.

If you were a player and looked at some of the nonsense on here you wouldn't have any loyalty to the club - you reap what you sow.

yes you reap what you sow! that's why with ended up with fans like you.
We all love Graham Tayor & what he did for this club but time to move on to a new era.
Calling other fans Neanderthals is a typical clapper saying.
I'm just glad your one of the minority now.
If you don't like what's going on Stay away

But he might not be the right man to coach Scott Loach.

No accusation of clapper, I am a born again clapper, but what your post is, is claptrap. Taylor's club has long gone, and why should the fans be any more loyal to players than they are to the fans? Truth is Peter other than journeymen that other clubs don't want players go where the better deals are. GT himself moved onto Villa, a bigger club that no doubt paid better wages. Personally I like to watch my team in a ground that has passion, not one where you can hear a pin drop. Mind you I do live in a cave and have a very high forehead!

Lutondown - lol at the high forehead and cave comment comment - firstly apologies I meant "other" clubs call fans - I was not reffering to you here (my mind was drawn to the QPR fans at the end of the season before last).

I understand your points and yes we have journeymen players in some instances but my point was that we are defined by how we treat them - I felt that Sean Dyche created a hardworking team with a small budget but most importantly I felt that the club as a whole came together more than it had in many years and I liked that. That does not preclude me from cheering on the team as much as anyone else.

I would feel saddened if everything that Graham Taylor built has gone - I thought it might still be in some small way part of the who the club could be "mes que un club" as Barca would say.

Mr Bankrupt -

Alec Chamberlain kept goal for a side that gave us 2 promotions, and some of the best seasons as a Watford fan, i know it's a past glory and look forward, but a bit of respect please! He's being talked about on here like he deserves to be shot!

Chamberlain is a legend! End of!

The Watford way thing in my view does not and never has existed.
For example everytime the ball comes anywhere near the goal at the Rookery end people stand up not caring if those behind them are little kids, short people, old people, partially disabled or whatever.
In that respect as in most other respects we are little
different to other football crowds and it is pure fantasy to suggest otherwise.
The Watford crowd is often apathetic and if we are to make genuine progress ( particularly now we have Italian owners) it would help the team and encourage the owners if the supporters were able to forget the Watford way nonesense and generate more enthusiasm and passion ( except in the upper Rous of course).
Maybe we could do so in a loud but good natured and humourous way, now that really would be something original.

Well, having been away and out of touch with the comings and goings of our once family friendly club, I return to read the latest euphoria erupting.
I know I will be in the minority but I do not see this as many do on here.
Lets take a look at recent events, GT decides to walk away stating for more other pressing reasons. It was also known that he was not a fan of baz and did not trust his integrity for our the club.
Its also a fact that Baz could not fulfil his commitment to WFC when the next payment was due, to ensure we could continue and honor our creditors etc.
GT does not agree to the methods that Baz wants to keep face to ensure the club keeps afloat.
GT jumps ship as stated and Baz attempts to raid the safe where season ticket money is being kept and as we all know......... In comes the old bill and he threatens to sue all and sundry for his misdemeanour's! Now this is where it gets a little bit shady, GT does not agree to Baz plan B, The Pozzo's as potential buyers!
Now, I am not at liberty to comment on this and I hope that one day very soon, GT will.
My conclusion to the takeover is that our club will never be the same again with lots of tears to come along the way!

...and black sunglasses. I'm told once GZ has gone through the press conference, turned his back on other offers and committed himself to WFC, his wife and children will be released back in Italy.
