Watford salvage another 3 points from the jaws of defeat as they come from behind to beat Norwich 3-2 at Vicarage Road. Ned and James are back to discuss the game and perhaps the more questions than answers that came out of it. What is going on with the back four? constant individual mistakes. Is it a personnel issue? is it the tactics? or is it the midfield not protecting them as they should? which leads the boys on to the question of: is the 4-4-2 working? a lot of joy from those fullbacks ...
We're back with an AwayDays podcast for the first time in a long time this week! Ned and James both traveled to Birmingham on Monday night to see Watford's first defeat in 6 as they slumped to a 2-1 defeat. The boys discuss the game in detail, what went wrong in the first half, the comeback kings of the EFL struggled to get back into the game after Maamma's effort early on in the second half and eventually ran out of steam chasing Birmingham. The big question is the number of defensive mistak...
Two games in 3 days so the boys cover both Derby and Preston North End in this podcast! A huge away win - the first for 280 days, the first this season and another three points wrestled from the jaws of defeat. Something the golden boys are making a bit of a trend of this season. Ned and James are back to discuss Derby County and Preston North End, the positives to take; Maamma, Doumbia, Kayembe?!, 5 unbeaten, taking the most points from losing positions in the EFL and Chakvetadze to return!&...
The international break is almost over, Watford are back this weekend as they travel up to Derby (Finally!) Ned and James wanted to do something interesting this week so they are joined by James from thewatfordway to discuss the season so far; how the golden boys have progressed under Gracia, and the next 5 games. They then discuss where Baah's best position is, whether Irankunda is struggling at the moment and the return of Chakvetadze to the starting XI. The boys finish with a game of Watfo...
It's been a very busy week for Watford FC, three games in six days gave the golden boys no rest. 5 points from a possible 9 wasn't a bad return given the fixtures but do we see the draws as 2 points dropped or a point gained? Ned and James discuss this and the context of the question. How did the change of shape and personnel impact the game on Friday night, was it the right decision to switch to a back 5? and did we come away from the game disappointed not to beat a fairly depleted Bristol C...
Well, we certainly needed a reaction after Coventry (A) and we certainly got it! A massive three points as the best performance of the season put Middlesbrough to the sword at Fortress Vicarage. Four wins on the bounce at home now as the hornets move up to 10th in the table! Ned and James break down the tactics behind the performance, how Gracia set up to defeat Boro on the flanks, how the front two worked together and being clinical in front of goal. The boys then discuss standouts across th...
Apologies for no episode last weekend! we just couldn't find the time to sit down and record together. Ned and James are back to discuss the loss away to Coventry, a defensive disaster class and not taking our chances killed us. Dominating in all stats but one saw the Hornets fall to a 3-1 defeat. The boys then turn their attention to Javi's first three games in charge, what have we learnt so far? The Spaniard seems to be getting the best out of some players (Vata and Bola) but there ha...
Is it an emergency podcast? the past couple of weeks have felt like a slow death for Watford Boss Paulo Pezzolano, culminating in his sacking on Wednesday morning and the subsequent announcement that former Hornets boss Javi Gracia would take charge! Ned and James discuss all the news that came out alongside the statement of Gracia's hiring. Whether the sacking of Pezzolano was justified, and was the hiring of Gracia the right decision? Do the squad fit to what Gracia wants to play? it's been...
After Watford's dominant performance over Oxford on Saturday, and a well fought out draw away to Portsmouth in the week, the boys assumed this podcast would be discussing the squad trending in the right direction, from 22nd to 10th in the table. But murmurs of Pezzolano's sacking began shortly after full-time on Saturday. Ned and James discuss the reasoning for and against the sacking of Pezzolano, whether they think the team is going in the right direction, have the performances in the past ...
It's been a headscratching week for all those following Watford FC, from yet another miserable night in Bermondsey with the Hornets slumping to a 1-0 defeat to Millwall in which the Golden boys offered very little, attentions turned to Hull on Saturday as Ned and James discuss.. The confusing tactics of Paulo Pezzolano, has the win over the Tigers only postponed the inevitable sacking? or is this finally the start to the season? Imran Louza, Max Alleyne and Jeremy Petris standing out, a...
Pezzolano’s Watford looked miles off the pace in a 1-0 defeat to Blackburn. With little creativity in midfield, injury problems at the back and an Isolated Kyerrumgaard it was a frustrating watch for Elton John and the Vicarage road faithful. This week Ned and James dig into the key issues: Is Baah really suited to the left? does he offer enough from the start and is Irankunda a better option? Is Sissoko running out of steam and Kayembe offering enough? and how vital are the returns of Louza,...
We're back for a very very special international break episode of the Pod. Ned and James are joined by former WFC correspondent at the Watford Observer Andrew French. Andrew takes the boys through a day in the life of a sports journalist covering the club, from a pre-match curry to typing up quotes while driving back from away games and more. Andrew then discusses growing up in the Elton John and Graham Taylor era of Watford, being his fondest memories of the club, and then transitioning from...
Another freekick from Nestory Irankunda as a man of the match performance from the Australian wonderkid inspired Watford to a point at home to league title favourites Southampton. Ned and James discuss Southampton, the positives to take from both the first and second half, Paulo Pezzolano's tactical switch and substitutions as well as the midfield problem. The boys then go on to the rumour roundup, the final one of the Summer window as they discuss Nempalys Mendy joining the hornets, Ryan And...
An absolute screamer from Australian wonderkid Nestory Irankunda gave Watford a point on the road in South Wales as a dominant hour was pegged back by a late equaliser from the Swans. Ned and James are back to the usual format this week! they discuss Swansea (A) in depth, how we look going forward in the new formation, where does Kwadwo Baah fit in? how good is Kyerrumgaard? new arrivals and young players continuing to settle in, are substitutions still making us weaker? all this and more fro...
A first three points of the season for the Hornets as they beat QPR 2-1 at the Vic.

James discusses the match in detail before Ned takes on the wider talking points, with Watford's transfer links with Sandi Lovric from Udinese and Denys Popov from Dynamo...
A first opening day defeat in 6 years for the golden boys saw Watford fall to a one-nil loss away to Charlton. Ned and James discuss the performance, the positives to take from it before discussing how the squad looks thin on the ground with a lengthy list of absentees already. The boys then discuss Hector Kyprianou's performance in detail aswell as Doumbia's left wing experiment. The big question being is it time to panic? or is the first game of the season a chance to see positives as the p...
