We were alright until the sending off. Without actually creating too many clear cut chances we were okay to that point, keeping the ball well, and after Watford's early forays looked quite solid. And perversely Bellusci was impressing the most before his error that led to the penalty and sending off. I've only seen it live, so don't know if it was mis-control, poor judgement or an unlucky bounce that saw the ball on the wrong side of him.
Once we went behind though and down to ten men we never looked like getting back in teh game. Why it took so long to make a change is a mystery, and it seemed tailor made for Smith to come on, go 4 4 1, in an attempt to get something out of the game, but what do I, or most people round me in the ground, know about football eh? It didn't take long for negative chanting and anti-Hockaday stuff to come out. I feel sorry for the bloke, you can't really blame him for being given the job, but it was never going to work, and it isn't. It would be like me, a research support secretary, being made Director of the Institute I work for and expecting to a) konw what to do and b) get all those professors to do what I tell them. It's Cellino's fault for employing him. Should we still be in this league next season though, and if Watford are too, and you choose to go the fixture, I can heartily recommend the chicken balti pie. With it's spicy sauce, meaty content, and whole cumin seeds, it was the highlight of the day - which says it all really.
