DIONISI JOINS THE CIRCUS!

Do Not Scratch Your Eyes — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 23:12:00 GMT

The latest entrant to the managers office is Alessio Dionisi. Pete takes a look at his track record and his previous ability to get a top 8 place - which next season seems even more important - even though he has never gone up via a play off. Reactions are mainly caustic but that is more to do with the environment he will be entering into rather than hostility towards the new head coach.

Irankunda lights up the World Cup, Dionisi to be the next Watford manager & a complete Academy restructure?! - Off Season Special

YellowSquared — Mon, 15 Jun 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Plenty to discuss from the previous month!

We're back for a season 2 of the 'Off Season Show' where we take a month's worth of news surrounding watford and compact it in to a special episode!

In our June edition:

Nestory Irankunda lights the way for Australia at the World Cup, in our round up, Egil Selvik, Edo Kayembe and a whole host of former Hornets are competing at this Summer's tournament - but who will go the furthest?

A complete academy restructure, the removal of the U21s, a player pathway from U18s straight to loans or first team action - is this the right decision?

Alessio Dionisi is set to be announced as the next Watford head coach, where has he come from? do we like his style of football? how long will he last...

All this and more!

Let us know your thoughts!!

A golden boy from two golden eras leaves us and Pete gives a brief synopsis of a football man who did so much for our club - and indeed as a manager - for other clubs. Thanks Kenny.

It's (Finally) Over. Ed Still departs Watford and Scott Duxbury addresses the fanbase.

YellowSquared — Sun, 03 May 2026 19:00:00 GMT

Well thank god its over.

A fifth straight defeat thanks to a 4-0 battering at home to Coventry sees the hornets bow out of the Championship in 16th position, the lowest in 21 years.

But lets not dwell on that, Ned and James talk Ed Still's departure - which was announced the morning after, before digging into the main talking point of the pod: Scott Duxbury's end of season statement.

Admitting fault in the recruitment department, a dressing room full of players who want to leave and cultural problems all over the football club. Is this statement the first step in the right direction? or is the trust too broken to see any positives left.

We talk all this and more in our final regular pod of the season! We'll be back for our annual Keep, Buy, Sell so until then - Thank you so much for your support this season!

Let us know your thoughts!!

WFC 0-4 COVENTRY CITY | POST MATCH PHONE IN PART TWO

Do Not Scratch Your Eyes — Sun, 03 May 2026 01:11:00 GMT

Part two of the fan chat from the worst end of season run in that most can remember. Scott Duxbury's comments once again receive attention but frankly most fans simply now want a break from a campaign that has bought very little harmony to the club - will it be more of the same next season? We wait and see....

WFC 0-4 COVENTRY CITY | POST MATCH PHONE IN PART ONE

Do Not Scratch Your Eyes — Sat, 02 May 2026 22:08:00 GMT

Well the champions were in town and very superior they looked after a reasonably entertaining half time in the second period Watford were truly wretched once gain. However it is Scott Duxbury's words and the inevitable departure of the hapless Ed Still that also get the fans attentions!
