Think this will end in tears. It did the last time Watford hired an Italian, ex-Chelsea manager!

Funny how people are saying this won't work when only a few weeks ago Zola was a popular choice on here to succeed Gus if he left.

Watford finished last season quite well didn't they? Pretty shitty to publicly go after a new manager before telling the old one.

First Deeney now this: not been a good summer for them so far.

Well, Brighton and Watford aren't the same. I don't know if this will work and I would have been more than happy with Zolais Gus had gone anywhere.

But Dyche was probably one of the managers of the season, everyone had Watford down for relegation, no money, had to sell their best talents (Buckley, Sordell, Cowie left on a free) etc etc but got them to 11th. I would think he will quite easily get a good League One job if he wants it.

I guess that would be the worry but Zola seems certain he will give current players in our squad a chance (those that are good enough anyway)

TBH It sounded like take this offer or face administration because the previous guy had no money to keep the club going.

think you have done well to get out as lightly as you have and although there will undoubtably be problems and some issues in the future you still have your club and you will be competitive. I HAD YOU NAILED ON FOR A POINTS DEUCTION THIS SEASON :) Just hope you guys remember to keep your eyes open and shout loud if you see anything dodgy going on - you might have to! Well done though and good luck.
