Own goal from former England goalkeeper David James set Watford on course for 2-0 win at Bristol City

Two goals in the space of five first-half minutes secured Watford a 2-0 victory away to Bristol City.

An own goal from former Watford and England goalkeeper David James and then a scrappy goal from Sean Murray put the Hornets two up inside 20 minutes and the visitors never looked like losing from then on.

Watford made three changes for the match as Adrian Mariappa and John Eustace were left out due to injuries and replaced by Martin Taylor and Prince Buaben. Chris Iwelumo also came in for Britt Assombalonga, who made his debut at the weekend.

It was the home side who had the first opportunity as the ball broke to Stephen Pearson on the edge of the area and he fired an effort over the bar.

City striker Jon Stead also tried his luck from 35 yards out and had Tomasz Kuszczak scrambling as the ball bounced wide.

City had started the better but somehow found themselves 2-0 down in the space of five minutes.

The opener came from a diagonal Carl Dickinson cross from 60 yards and despite there not being another player within five yards of David James, the former England goalkeeper punched the ball behind him into his own net.

Stead fired over again but five minutes after their first, Watford went 2-0 up when a goal mouth scramble saw Deeney mishit a shot and then Murray bundled the ball into the net.

The home side must have wondered how they were two behind but by half time it could have been considerably worse. Murray’s delightful free kick found Nyron Nosworthy unmarked but he somehow headed the ball outside the box from eight yards.

Watford goalkeeper Tomasz Kuszczak was forced into a decent stop when Stephen Foster struck a powerful 35-yard shot but it was the visitors who finished the half the stronger.

Nosworthy looked destined to score when Iwelumo flicked on Murray’s free kick. Nosworthy controlled the ball at the far post and his cleanly-struck shot was heading for the far corner before Kalifa Cisse blocked yards from his goal.

Alex Kacaniklic enjoyed some success on the left and he had a low drive from 25 yards parried away by James.

It was a first half performance where Watford had not played particularly well but could easily have been four or five goals ahead.

There was nothing to report on for the first 17 minutes of the second half and when Albert Adomah did create the first opening by cutting in from the right, his left-footed shot was held by Kuszczak.

Just like buses, the next opportunity came a minute later as Dickinson’s cross from the left was glanced wide by Deeney, with James scrambling.

James was having a torrid night and with just over an hour on the clock, a deep Deeney cross, following Murray’s dribble from inside his own half, saw the goalkeeper drop the ball and Iwelumo passed to Murray, who flick was cleared off the line.

The pace of the match had picked up by now and Deeney and Iwelumo both had shots saved within minutes of each other.

City used all three substitutes as they chased a way back into the match and one of them, Yannick Bolasie, went agonisingly close with a 25-yard shot which was tipped wide by Kuszczak.

The home side’s hopes of victory all-but ended though when Liam Fontaine was sent off with 12 minutes remaining for a high challenge on Jonathan Hogg.

Neither side managed to create another opportunity of note as Watford cruised to victory.

8 points from play offs, clearly too many teams between us and not enough games left.

What if however, Loach had been replaced some time ago. I can think of 4 points straight away - home v Bristol City and home v Cardiff.

Any others spring to mind?

We could also probably still be in the FA Cup !

Absolutely delighted for the lads, looking up the table rather than over our shoulders and although the play-offs are not an impossibility, I am thankful where we are and just hope that the lads can finish strongly and give a good account of themselves. Great win.

10:12pm Tue 20 Mar 12

Ridiculous blaming Loach. How about the number of open goals we missed? With Danny Graham in the team we might well have been in a play-off position. However, all in all, well done Sean Dyche. A month or so ago relegation was beckoning.

Feff its not just mistakes that Loach made, its the total lack of confidence that was spreading throughout the team due to his many shakey performances.

Cant remember when he last had two clean sheets by the way, other than his visits to Sketchleys that is

Fantastic result! Well done Sean and the team, this is turning into a great season.

If we could secure TK on a perm deal, and if we managed to keep hold of Mapps and Murray for next season we would really be a force to be reckoned with.

Good work lads, and fair play to Big Chris too by the sounds of things.

Good to win with such ease despite not playing that well if Dyche's comments were anything to go by on 3CR.

Shows the team has confidence and can play for each other which is why we find ourselves very much safe in mid-table against all odds I'd say.

7:02am Wed 21 Mar 12

Just a thought but surely as Britt has been recalled from a very successfull loan spell surely he is worth 5 minutes in this game as well!? As for Garner to bring him on in the 87th minute 2-0 up why bother, this is one of the things that does goad me with Seans tactics. I really think we need to play the youngsters more to see their worth for next season, even more so now we are safe, yes I know we won again so stop moaning, but I like to see our future situation sorted now we have the chance and dare I say it would rather lose finding out our squads strenth and weaknesses when it does not matter on position! First team experience is a must now.

northofwatfordpete says...
7:54am Wed 21 Mar 12

Agree with corbindallas- would rather see the subs used to greater effect - bringing players on for a couple of minutes might help run down the clock but does not show much faith in the squad. We seemed to keep it quite tight last night without Mapps.

Casterbridge says...
8:29am Wed 21 Mar 12

For once I agree with Dyche's reluctance to use his subs. Whilst we should have been out of sight, the fact is that we were only 2-0 up and City were creating chances, even they weren't taking them. Had they scored, our makeshift defence would have come under enormous pressure from a side with renewed self-belief.

As for my earlier comment - the first - this was posted before Palace scored in the 93rd minute of an 8 o'clock kick-off.

Good result at a side that can be a banana skin for us.Am pleased with the recent results but a bit worried with the lack of finishing last night.Two sloppy goals conceded by city and we could be so easily punished by a better side.But on the whole very happy with our current position and well done to all

Another good win and although play offs is probably too far away finishing top half would be a great achievement and hopefully we can challenge next season. We haven't lost to Bristol City for over 20 years so not sure about that banana skin. It wasn't that long ago that McIness got the job at Bristol City and people were saying we should have got him to replace Dyche because he had a good start. Not sure we would do the same now though. Even after a positive run it still amazes me that some are blaming Loach for not being in the play offs!?!? I admit he's not had a great season but it's the other end where we've had a problem yet this is rarely mentioned. There are many moments over a season that you can look back on and say "if only" but there are many other moments where we may have been a bit lucky.
From my point of view we have done very well this season bearing in mind who we lost in the summer and Dyche and the boys should take credit for this. It's not been great to watch at times admittedly but a new pitch with no rugby (please) might help this. Couple of signings (goalscorer) and we might not be far away next year. Be nice to get the unpronounceable Fulham lad again next season.
Happy days at the moment

Good posting by tonupchris. stevemag and lutondown- please note.

BicesterLee says...
11:36am Wed 21 Mar 12

Whilst I'm very happy that Loach isn't playing at the moment and he has cost us several points, he has obviously gained us points along the way as well so the main reason we're not higher as suggested in a previous post is our lack of goalscoring.

After 38 games last season we'd scored 68 goals but only 44 this season hence our goal diffrerence being -10 this season as oppossed to +14 last. Interesting that we've conceded exactly the same amount of 54 with 28 at home and 26 away this season and 26 at home and 28 away last.

My target for this season would be to go beyond 61 points that McFly by night achieved last season with Danny Graham, Will Buckley, Don Cowie and Marvin Sordell for the full season so if Dychie can beat that he's done an outstanding job with the resources he's got. 51 points is still a brilliant achievement but to beat the ungrateful Scot would be the icing on the cake.

All in all a terrific achievement from Dychie and the players, not always pretty, but we've got the points and that's what matters,

Agree with your comments apart from the bit about rugby. The new pitch should be more than capable of withstanding both football and rugby use (see Reading). How anyone can celebrate the fact that first class rugby union will no longer be available in Watford is beyond me.

Not sure why you would say we had a makeshift defence simply because Maps was missing.
If Taylor signs a new contract and Maps stays I wonder which two centre backs Dyche will favour next season or indeed for the remainder of this season?
Obviously Maps can play right back and I think Noseworthy can as well.

2:08pm Wed 21 Mar 12

It would be great if we could keep AK & TB next season but I doubt it. We also need a 15-20 goal a season striker. Given those 3 events, I see no reason why we shouldn't be in the playoffs next season. Our situation has improved dramatically since AK & TB came in.

A number of the contributors mentioned by keithMercer wanted Sean Dyche out early on in the season and in addition one or two wanted Graham Taylor out also because he will have been supporting Dyche during that difficult period.
Obviously everyone is fully entitled to their opinion but you can't really claim credit for one or two orchestra changes when you would have already sacked the conductor.
Surely it is too early to be writing Forsyth off.
I agree that Yeates has been a huge dissappointment

Remember Penalty not given at Coventry away, Boro offside goal, Foul in build up to West Hams goal, Kebe should have sent off for Reading before he scored, and Adam Le Fondre was offside, Penalty at Leeds that never was,

Keith Mercer is right Dave. We were saying that some individuals, especially SL were just not up to it but you are also right to point out that we generally didn't like SD's appointment or his performance at first. I for one and the others mentioned, have already eaten a fair amount of humble pie for our comments concerning Mr Dyche, so it's not as though are particularly belligerent over this, is it?

Deeply hurt that you lot wouldn't jump on a plane and visit your old cyber buddy for a bitterly cold Castle.

So happy that Coventry managed a last gasp equalizer last night. Would love to have seen McTraitor's face. I see that he's blaming the ref for adding on too much time. What a t*sser.

Typical McFly by night team who go on a bad run after Christmas and give away late goals, by the way has anyone else noticed how chubby he's become now when you see him on the touchline in Cardiff games, too much good living funded by big spending Cardiff that'll probably end up with nothing at the end of the season.

To finish above them and get past 61 points would be absolutely perfect.

Chris, really, the abuse as you call it is 99 per cent tongue in cheek humour. Why not take it as such? As you say, we are all on the same side and deep down, we know it.

Luther, tbh you're a bit of a stirrer and seem to comment on here just to stir-up a bit of trouble and mischief. Since Franny sadly departed from here this board has been a better place without rancor and vitriol.....that is until you came along. Every time you comment, it's abusive.

that has got to be the funniest response I have read in along time !! please tell me Luther you are on a wind up ? Yeates one of the top assists in the division ? what is he tied 206th with Hameur Bouazza ? who I would still have everyday over Mr Yeates. Dont you get it ?Scotty Loach used to be a promising keeper and deserved his U21 call up, and thats what Rogers and Mackay saw in him. But unfortunately you can almost pin it down to the day when his confidence went and its never been back since.
He got picked some would say questionably for the euro final against the Germans, he was like a rabbit in the headlights and let in anything that came near him (5).Since then we have had to witness howler after howler and finally he has been put out of his and our misery. I wish him well and hope he comes back to be the keeper we all hoped he was going to be. But thats his problem and shouldnt be ours.
You will be telling us next that Barca are having a look at big Chris ! keep taking the pills luther ! something tells me you could be dangerous without your medication.
