Should read wotb and pink un. Apparently we have been lucky for 20 odd games now. Worst championship league in a long time etc. if we go up we won't get a point in the prem. Deluded inbreds

I have watched alot of league one football the last decade due to my ex being an Oxford fan and they are an average league one team riding a wave. I hope Norwich batter them on Saturday and their season falls apart.

Yes to be fair all the rest are fine. Wasn't a free flowing game or one where we were ever going to be blowing them away after two away trips in a few days and 5 changes etc. we've just won with 5 changes!!
That comment though is both ridiculous and so unbelievably stupid its mind blowing. what a moron! Haha

Yep, we were very average for us, but that's what the best sides do, still win playing average
I thought that was a typical away performance for us, or if anything a slightly braver one than normal. We've been a bit guilty of sitting back away from home (relative for us), but there was no sign of that even though it left us wide open at times. We took our game to them and they did likewise. It was like a couple of heavy weights trading blows and luckily we landed the shot that counted. Let's not forget their goal was a rare freak cock up from us. So it certainly wasn't an undeserved win, even if it could well have swung either way.
To be fair, Watford are probably still reeling from our smash and grab 8 years ago, and I can totally understand why. Either way, stuff em' - They've had their time in the prem with their owner feeder club frenzy, now it's time for a well run club to have a go.

But still good enough to beat them, so what does that make Watford - certainly League One support given all the empty seats
But TBH, who cares what any other set of fans think. We’ve been hearing this cr@p all season.

Given nobody turned up for the game apart from the away supporters, I’m surprised they have enough people to contribute to a forum. Oh well, I’ll try to live with theirs and Norwich’ disappointment with our 21 games of good fortune, bubble will burst by the winter, worst division ever, worst team ever etc etc etc.

I'm not defending this statement at all but we seem to have saved some of our poorer performances for Sky
When a pundit on Sky asked Holland if that was our best performance of the season against Millwall, I did chuckle a bit. We have been far better at home than that, Hull probably the best performance I'd say?

It's not Crufts and best in show it's about 46 games of hard championship football. Win tough but still win. If Watford fans think we should be playing like Bayern Munich every week then they are the clueless suburban dullards I've always considered them to be.

How is it the weakest division ever? The Prem is probably its weakest in many years when you've got teams like Fulham and Brentford half way up it.
You could probably swap the bottom 6 from the Prem for the top 6 in the Championship and strengthen the Prem!

It isn’t. In fact given the three relegated sides have all performed strongly compared to the three the previous season that suggests precisely the opposite.
I think the poor, fragile, rolling eyed souls are just a little bewildered, confused and jealous.
As Windsor Davies would say ‘Oh dear, so sad, never mind.’

Stoke, I think - we were in control of that match from start to finish.
The games on Sky have been Sunderland, Southampton (red button), Bristol City (red button), Rotherham, West Brom, Millwall and Watford.
Sunderland between around the 25th minute and red card, Bristol City first half and Millwall aside, I would say they have been on the 'poorer' end of performances this season. Which says a lot about us at our best.
The winner is somebody on the Leicester forum who said they caught ten minutes (yes a whole ten minutes out of about 1900 this season) of our game and we are bang average.
After garnering a fair amount of respect on the Foxes forum, it seems things are turning on there. Several of them saying that we have a wafer thin squad that will be found out and they can't believe such a poor side is above them.
