Both the goals given away against Lincoln and Stevenage were absolute examples, they were not unlucky they were down to complete mental breakdowns at key moments. We currently look mentally insecure both as a team and on an individual level. How have we gone from a very good defensive unit under...

Not sure of the reason but O' Donker has been coming off the bench for Barnet recently, presumably he will have some play off experience with Barnet though.

But it certainly was and always is a hirers market.

But it is certainly is all about recruitment. Compare and contrast Lincoln's January window with ours. Why is it year after year we bring in half fit injury prone players when you have a realistic chance of play offs and promotion. They bring in Joe Taylor on loan 9 goals in 17 whilst we bring...

That is very true but if after Orient away we were told we would miss the play offs you would think the person was insane. It has been a rollercoaster of a season just a shame we end it with so many more questions than answers.

The real problem in the play offs if we reach them and irrespective of who we play, is we will have to play 2 games in 4 days. As the Posh/Lincoln experience showed, we really struggle to put 2 good high energy performances together in a short space of time. I think Stevenage is going to be a...

The change in the way football is played in England has made him a bit of a dinosaur. He defends well to be fair, but is uncomfortable on the ball and lacks pace and that makes him a potential liability. He was obviously shot away whilst he was here, I hope for him and us he tries to find a club...

I think a major problem with this system is that it requires that the midfield and front three, have high energy and great stamina. That we did against Posh. Last night we could not match the energy levels particularly in the second half. If players stop running and tracking back the system...

But it does mean we don't have to rush Moore or Brannagan back on Tuesday if they are not a 100%. Before the weekend results Lincoln was must win now it's become don't lose.

A weeks a long time in politics, its a lifetime in football.

It was a managerial defining performance. Finally we have got players playing in Desball formation who can play it. In Rodrigues and Goodrham we have found the players who can play the double No 10 role. Both attacked with the ball but dropped into a proper midfield 3 in defending. Whilst we...

What have Watford done to upset you!

The way things have worked out if we get in the play offs we will go in on a high that's for sure and not with high expectations.

To keep him we will need to offer more, others certainly will.

I thought he had been told this was his last season and thought B*****s I don't need all this paperwork. To be fair I think he let a lot go because of the playing conditions, The pitch was awful and with the wind it made conditions very difficult. But that nasty playing style appears to be part...
