  • An amazing away dayo thanks to Vakoun Bayo - Wednesday 2-6 Watford
    Nov 3 2024

    Watford scored a rare SIX on the road and FOUR Vakoun Bayo goals made the LONG journey to Sheffield oh so worthwhile.


    Jon, Mike, Colin, DCW and Olly took the train to Sheffield to witness the match. With no clear idea of what Cleverley's plan would be, and they got even more confused when they saw the team annouced, the game, the performaces and especially the result, were a huge joyous surprise for all the travelling hornets.


    Join them as they tell the story of their day in Sheffield.

    You know the score, you suffered through it and you might not listen to this podcast too soon. However, here it is. A 3-0 defeat at the Kennel isn't what we wanted,, far from it, but Jon, Mike and the Brigadier Colin Mace gathered, with a beer, outside Mad Squirrel upon the fans return to Watford.

    It was just one game, it was an improtant game but we have to move on to Leeds.

  • From Blah to Baah - Watford 2-1 Middlesbrough
    Oct 5 2024

    After a terrible away performance at Preston in the week, it felt - for 75 minutes at least - that Watford were going to finish with nothing. However, two goals from two substitutes saw the Hornets run out 2-1 winners for the second weekend in a row.


    Tom Cleverley made six changes to the team that lost at Deepdale and Jon, DCW, Jason and Mike gathered outside the Hornet Shop and while the players, keen to make the most of the international break, piled into waiting cars, the boys discussed how the afternoon played out.

    Plus in this week's Railway Children, pre match chat., the discussion focussed on who should be considered the ultimate Watford team to face Luton Town.


    The Hornets sit 6th, three points off top spot.... that's certainly a better place than we thought we'd be in by this point of the season. Another home win. Another From the Rookery End.

  • Small margins, big defeat - Norwich 4-1 Watford
    Sep 22 2024

    Watford lose away for the second time this season, and let in an early goal AGAIN, but Jon, Jordi and Adam discuss the lose and if it was Watford's own doing or just a series of unfotunate moments.


    Did the three changes and two early subs limit Tom Cleverley's ability to make changes to adjust the game substantially? And if there is an area to focus on and improve - where is it?


    As well as discussing the game you will hear this weeks fan chat, this time with Paiul O'Brien, a life long Watford fan and Commerical Director of the club. He talks us through the fact the club have had a gambling sponsor for a quite a few years and how his life has changed since Watford were relegated from the Premier League.


    As ever, thank you for taking the time to listen to From The Rookery End.
