What if watford do a leicester

[copunk]

A BIG IF!!!!

Theyve started the season in cracking form and the spurs win was hugr to come back from a goal down against a side many expect to be up there, but deep down, if it comes down to the last 8 games, watford are top of the league with a couple of teams on their tale, would you want them to push on and capture glory, or would you be rooting for the "big" teams to overtake them? 

[Guest TaggertvsWise]

I would support them, the love we got from our winning season was incredible and it's only right to pay it forward.  But they won't do it.

[That_Dude]

Yeah, no.

 

The top teams bar ManU are doing too well and I'd be astonished if they make it to the top 6.

They always start fine and then fail

Their footballers score a lot and then stop - ricahrlison,ighalo

its club mentality i guess  

[Lovejoy]

All for them doing well, but it'd be awful if anyone else did a Leicester . Push for the top six if you will lads, but please don't repeat what we did.

[Gerard]

Does Usain Bolt want to see his world record beat?

[gerrytaggart]

Id support them and be well chuffed if they managed it.

 

We proved thay anything is possible.

[yorkie1999]

What's the odds

[TheUltimateWinner]

Good luck to em

 

Maybe they'll finally get a bit of history instead of just deeney day 

[UniFox21]

Is this going to be the case every time a smaller team have a good start to the season?

[Nickfosse]

I’d be delighted for them. Anything to break up the media’s tedious and lazy narrative of an impenetrable “top 6”.

[mod hero]

No.

 

theres only room for 1 underdog story, and it was the greatest story ever told. (Martin Tyler). 

[foxer]

I really hope they break into the top 5/6. Gives us hope going forward

[Stadt]

They have a couple of decent players in Pereyra, Doucoure and Deeney but none anywhere near the level of Vardy, Kante or Mahrez. They’ll finish in the top 10 but it’s far too early to make any outlandish claims when they only good side they’ve played is Spurs and they scored two set pieces in that game 

[nnfox]

I'd totally fine with it, in fact, if we can't claw back the 6 points they're ahead of us and beat them to it, I'd like them to actually do it.  Anyone outside the big 6 would do actually (apart from Everton or West Ham!).

 

The thing is that we were the first to do it, before it became fashionable.  Therefore whenever this type of thing happens, it'll always be labelled as "Doing a Leicester".  

[st albans fox]

They wont

man City and Liverpool are too good this season to both fail and allow a ‘lesser club’ to win it. 

 

I do think there is room for someone to pinch 6th place from arsenal 

[Voll Blau]

I'd be delighted for anyone other than Derby, Forest, Cov or MK Dons to emulate our achievement. If you'd rather the cartel of clubs at the top won everything all the time, then it's a bit weird to be honest. Wanting our achievement to be the only one recognised in perpetuity is the kind of noncey behaviour we've come to expect from that lot by the Trent.

[AKCJ]

They won't win the league but if they break into the top 6 then they've had a magnificent season and i'll congratulate them for it.

 

Just hope they don't do it at our expense.

[foxfanazer]

I’d be happy for them although i do enjoy being the team that broke the mould 

[Jaspa]

It's nice to see another team up there getting excited. Really though you can't say it's much more than form at this point, most teams throughout the season go through patches with multiple wins, clean sheets, scoring for fun, turning over a couple of the big teams but unless Watford keep doing this through to November you can nowhere near say the can win the League.

 

I didn't believe we'd win it one bit until Man City away, even then it was just enjoying being on top and not realising what was actually happening, Sunderland away it really hit me. We're only just into September.

 

Good on Watford though, as twunty as they were after the playoffs they're nowhere near toxic as some other Premier Clubs. Enjoy it while it lasts

[Ted Maul]

Why wouldn't we support them? It would be great to see another club stick it to the Sky Sports 'big 6' wankathon again.

 

We've no reason to be bitter like some fans of similarly sized clubs were to us because we've already been there and done it.

[Hanan96]

When leicester city win, the big team like city, man utd, arsenal, chelsea, are somehow struggling at the same time. 

 

If Watford could win like leicester do, it will. Be great. Leicester will be at least 3rd place

[ST20]

Fair play to them. Hate how sky and other media outlets focus all the attention on the big teams .

[KJT]

I would happy if they did, they may find harder then us cos of Liverpool and man city, man u will be pushing for the title. Dare I say it it may be a bigger achievement than ours, but we were the original.

[CollinsLCFC]

It would make our title win look a little less spectacular from a media perspective, but meh - we won it, I was there and one of the greatest days of my life.

 

I'd be happy for them and much rather they do it than Man City or Liverpool.
