v Watford (h) - 13/9/22 (possibly)…

[Tugay-is-God]

He really isn't one for subs, is he

[Tom]

Ridiculous finish from Hyam - no right to do that

Have there been no subs? Seems odd at 2 up with another game pending.

No subs.

Huge relief to see this kind of performance after a shaky few weeks. Watford have been poor, but we've been at it from the off and a few players are looking like they have a point to prove.

I'm not gonna complain, cos of the score, but I'd definitely take some legs off after that 2nd goal to keep them a bit fresher.

Can't see the Watford manager lasting long

Here we go, Hirst on and also Mola for his debut.

The two subs come in the 92nd minute..feel for Mola  his debut is a good minute to run about 

[Tugay-is-God]

Wonder how these players feel coming on to play one minute and five seconds. 

What a strange job to have.

Xisco at the match apparently. I imagine he'll be in situ by the international break.

Hard to know how much to take into account just how poor Watford were. Not seen many worse performances than that 1st half. Looked like they were throwing it almost. 

Never the less, back 3 were great. Hyam looks superb and suddenly CB looks like our strongest position in the squad (finally!) 
Great energy and like chalk and cheese compared to Bristol City and Stoke City matches.

At least they'll net themselves an appearance fee I guess. But yeh this one was pointless, think it was just to run the clock down a little more.

[neophox]

Superb performance... never in doubt!!

[WacoRover]

Full time! Well done, lads!

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Excellent win after the last two home games, bring on some hats!

[rigger]

So who is still shitting themselves about playing the mighty Watford ?

Nice to feel the feeling on the pitch...every minute counts

[Tom]

That’s the perfect tonic, really tough game on paper and through with flying colours 

5 wins 4 losses and up to 3rd, bonkers considering some of the shocking results along the way!

[Displaced Rover]

What an unexpected superb performance. 
 

Watford crap for all their alleged quality.

[ItsRoverZ]

Brilliant result, Brilliant performance 

[Fraserkirky]

Ayala in a back three where his pace isn’t exposed, is basically a cheat code. 

[joey_big_nose]

Blown away by that. Thought we were nailed on for a mauling if we went in 4231 but JT made the necessary changes and the team put in a superb  performance. Obviously Watford looked out of sorts, but generally it was hard to see a weakness in our setup. Watford changes at half time but still struggled. We really look like we've found a groove.

Looking down the next 10 fixtures (11 I'd Wigan rearranged intervenes) till Burnley you have to be confident we can pickup a lot of points.

[Andy]

Wharton, Ayala and Hedges have all been missed - that back three tonight won't concede many goals (if they all stay fit).
