foxfanazer Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 We have our fair share of idiots on here but not one of them is even embarrassed by that thread. At least if somebody posted a thread like that on here you'd get quite a few people telling them it's cringeworthy. Right up there with the 'mauled by the tiger's video for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxfanazer Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 Would you swap winning/demolishing the league last season and survival this season (pending) for Knocky to convert that penalty for us to then lose in the playoff final Hmmmm that's a really tough one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Guiza Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 I genuinely think some of them believe it rivals United v Bayern or Liverpool v AC etc in terms of great footballing moments. Yes it was the play offs, but in the grand scheme of things our identical incident v Burnley could turn out to be a damn sight more important. I don't particularly dislike them, though I'm not fond at all, I just find the whole thing bizarre. Felt like s**t walking back to the car after the game, but from Boro away onwards It didn't even enter my mind. Be interesting to see how Deeney and co cope next season anyway.

Be funny if we sign Deeney and he scores against them next seasonI just wish one of them would have identified the obvious which is that incident turned out to be far more beneficial to us than it did them. Pearson spoke of how the players came back from the summer break with far much more hunger as a result if it. They didn't even turn up for the play-off final Edited 12 May 2015 by foxfanazer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'ts not as well known but a lot of neutrals seem to put it up there as one of the most mental finishes to a match ever. It's easy to be bitter like this but looking back it's still nuts, can't imagine how it must have felt for them. I was just standing in the pub shellshocked. DEEEEEEEEEENEY still makes me twitch to this day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEEEEEEEEEENEY still makes me twitch to this day. I know a lot of non-city fans who rate it highly, up there with Agueroooo etc as a classic finish to a match Most of them jumping for joy, because of Knockaert's awful dive, makes them think we got what we deserved, nothing!

LCCFox96 Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 Love how they have taken it upon themselves to create new rivalries. Not that most are decided historically, geographically or just generally anything more important than a play-off semi final match that neither team ultimately got promoted from.

The Doctor Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 It's such a weird thing ro do though, it'd be like us celebrating hume day in mid april because he scored a late winner against Barnsley. We went down so that goal really meant nothing, just like deeneys goal meant nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danizen Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 What have they got against our Lloyd? Oh and I bet those cockney wankers will make an absolute fortune selling those half scarves outside Vicarage Road, next season.

Countesthorpe Fox 1884 Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 Seen watfords movement supporters group on Twitter saying "we don't need those tinpot play-offs this year" bit rich considering their only history is from a game in the play-offs, they will always be irrelevant and couldn't care less about them other than getting the 6 points next year should we stay up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox Ulike Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 Poor Watford. Where even is it? Be honest though, with Derby Forest and Coventry all languishing in the minor leagues, we don't really have any rivals. So we shouldn't just turn them down flat.

BosomBouncer Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 Do we even really need a rivalry? Just adds pressure to an all ready demanding Premier League campaign (fingers crossed, please!) - we all know how pressure can and does impact upon us sometimes. Just look back to the Sven era and all that was expected of us then. No rivalries, please. I'd be happy to be the club that everyone doesn't really mind, or even likes. Much like Blackpool were in 2010-2011, albeit a more successful version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacnah Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 (edited) After seeing how we have struggled to come to terms with the premier league, how qpr and burnley have really struggled, and then considering how all three teams were miles ahead of everyone else last year, i think both bournemouth and watford are nailed on for the bottom two. I was just thinking the same, and depending on who wins the "tinpot" playoffs could potentially be a full house at the bottom! Anyone think Direby's record is going to be beaten!

The Doctor Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 Watford Talk @WatfordTalk · 10m10 minutes ago @al_proudman We saved a penalty and scored 10 seconds later, pitch invasion, mad celebrations. I'm sure you'd have done the same ahahahahhaa - Yeah, we'd definitely be celebrating a goal two years later. What an utter melt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankieADZ Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 i dont know why the Watford fans have that Deeney Day thing...kinda feels like its glorifying failure to me....could understand if they went on & won the final but they lost... as someone else said it would be like us naming the 21st September Cambiasso day as he scored the the 3rd against Utd at home. if we did that lark we could just label every single game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LCFC FOX Posted 12 May 2015 Share Posted 12 May 2015 To be fair we would talk about it being a great moment. But the hash tag and all the hype around it is bizarre. We scored a last minute winner against our main rivals and we don't talk about it much at all. Just now and again as a great moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We score that, on the same day Doncaster score a last minute winner on the counter from a penalty by Brentford. Both get an 'On This Day' from the club and nothing else. Deeney scores a last minute winner and gets a national holiday in Watford. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
