RE: Watford vs WBA - Match Thread - talkSAFT - 05-04-2017
Stairs, the lack of interest on this Thread is because last night the System crashed (or whatever) all through the 2nd half and after the match.
The 2nd half was all Albion, but I don't think we practise opening up defences, and, despite having 1/2 doz corners we just couldn't produce a clinical finish. Matt Phillips made all the difference when he came on for the 2nd half, and looked class. But we didn't take advantage of the extra man after their defender was sent off. I'd have been fuming if I was a Watford fan - the ref gave us everything, and them nothing. In fact the 2nd half was 'roles reversed', where they put all men behind the ball and we couldn't open them up.

Sorry, had to get that out of my system!
No idea who the number 5 is.. belter of a shot though!
Was it Steve Simms, ended up at the Villa?
It is, yes.
I played against him when I was at Tividale, I nut megged him and shouted 'MEGS' then felt his breath on the back of my neck as he came after me and then I was flying sideways into a uncontrolled Cart Wheel as he kick me up in the air
I Scored from the resulting free kick. I honestly can't remember who he was playing for but a great moment for me, albeit a painful one.

Further to the stuff above about errors, the site seemed to crash as I was posting the Southampton match thread and the whole thing has now vanished into the ether, so will just use this for comments unless I can find the time to re-do it tomorrow.

Beefy, well found, good article, would not disagree, love it when we're Boing Boing baggies'ing. Atmosphere been a bit hit and miss the last few years ...... seems to be the consequence of being mid table security.. lack of hope of reaching top six but secure in the knowledge of not being in the dogfight.
