Tis The Season

[Nick]

Andy - the small ticket allocation seems to be a hangover from the Premiership, where most clubs kept the away supporters to a bare minimum which , in my opinion, ruined the atmosphere. Watford have kept this going and the match day "experience" is definately the poorer for it.
A strange thing is happening at the Vic these days. We are top of the league but the fans are very disgruntled in the way the team are playing. There is very little attractive football being played, just a lot of "Huff and Puff" and an over reliance on the physical side. The star striker Marlon King is on his way to Villa and there are plenty of other want away players who think they should be playing in the Prem. You don't have to listen too hard to hear the the fans even complaining about the manager and his signings.
The real problem is the Premiership and the raised levels of expectation.
Their are many who see it as the Holy grail but it can just as easily become a poisoned chalise.

I won't be there on Saturday against QPR, I had my fill against Cardiff.
