Assuming Riza lasts until Sunday he will be returning to Vicarage Rd where he was a coach under Valérien Ismaël. Riza left the club after Ismaël was sacked following the defeat to Coventry mentioned above. Watford have not lost at home since.

Is the game live on Sky? I didn’t think it was and it’s not listed on the TV football site I use. Not listed on Sky’s own website either.

No red button games for the 3pm kick offs so I presume same rules as if a Saturday 3pm.

That's a relief.

I do not believe Sunday's 3pm EFL games are being shown on "red button". The early kick offs are. The Leicester City v Man City premier league game is being shown as in Rangers v Millwall.

Can we keep it below 6 ?

I'm not sure now. I based that on info when Sky first announced the TV games. I've changed the list.

Believe it or not, but bookings have been brisk today, to the point of putting on another coach (that’s a bus like coach, not a coaching type coach) :xmashehe:

Who wouldn't want to be there following yesterday's dazzling display?

Can I give them 14 quid on the inevitability that we’ll be 4 down and I’ll be leaving at half time

Public hangings used to be popular.

5-1 and that's me being positive and that doesn't happen too often.

They'll be on a high after their turnaround against Portsmouth

9 wins and 0 defeats from 11 at home in the league this season, puts them 2nd in the "home table", we of course are yet to win away from home

All signs pointing to a Cardiff victory...

My lad and his mate have just coerced me into going as its 'pay on the day' but it's cash only. Anyone know the cost so I can take enough shekels out of the hole in the wall?

City quite helpfully have taken that off their website.

My tickets online were £35 for an adult.

Went to Watford away, around this time of year, must have been about 20ish years ago, can’t even remember the result, I’m guessing we didn’t win.

Yeah, it's not being unduly pessimistic, it's just being realistic.
I don't think we'll be thrashed by 5 or 6 goals, simply because no Championship side has shown themselves to be clinical in of goal.
