All true, but they have looked like a bit of a busted flush of late. I think they would have been every pundit's favourite for one of the relegation slots next season, and probably still will be. | | | |
Another one bites the dust - Flores gone from Watford on 10:32 - May 13 with 4732 views | JJJack | It seems a bit ambiguous as to whether he jumped or was pushed. Talkshoite saying maybe going to Valencia | | | |
Another one bites the dust - Flores gone from Watford on 10:38 - May 13 with 4707 views | icecoldjack | I rate him as a manager and don't think he could have done much better for a newly promoted team. He also had to blend in something like 11 new players, many of whom would probably be a bit fatuiged by the long prem season. Like with us, the more you throw the managerial dice the more chance you have of picking a dud, let's hope that happens to them and they take one of the relegation places next season,not that I have anything against watford mind. | | | |

Done a good job with Watford, but then again, they sacked the previous manager once promotion was achieved. If the board hadn't have given Frankie the gig, wouldn't have minded seeing Flores here. | |

FG was definitely going to Watford it was a 'done deal' I heard. | |

Another one bites the dust - Flores gone from Watford on 11:42 - May 13 with 4499 views | KGriz16 | there's more that goes on behind closed doors than we realise. if he was going to be sacked, surely they would have waited until after sunday, he's probably got himself a new job elsewhere. failing that - watford have been very poor since xmas, and have been lucky to have scraped the points in order to stay up. they were poor when they played at the liberty and we should have beaten them by more. | | | |

Yes, they may have been poor but f*ck me, it's not as if it's an expensively assembled squad. It's a near miracle that they stayed up, given their lack of resources | |

but i am saying the likelyhood is that he's got himself a new job and Watford wanted to tell the media before he or his new club had the chance? hence, why they would announce is now...poorly timed imo (before last game) | | | |

Another one bites the dust - Flores gone from Watford on 13:36 - May 13 with 4240 views | marchamjack | According to my friend a Watford fan, his contract stipulated a certain finishing position and /or points total, and when it was clear that he was not going to meet his contractual requirements, he knew he was off (as had seemed clear for a while, in spite of what anyone else would think was a very good job). That's the owner's model and that's why, in part, they had 5 managers last season, as (aside from ill health forcing 1 or 2 out) they apparently field to meet their contract requirements, in spite of in the end the team being promoted!! Just passing it on as told to me and pretty well know in Watford circles it seems. The owner has his business model, employees, including the manager in particular are inter-changeable as he sees it, but the system stays the same. He's a Harvard business graduate I believe. Bit like the Brentford owner and the moneyball system he uses. Anyway. Mad if correct. | |

In reality his target should have been 17th place and or 40 points. He achieved both. Will Watford regret this ( many thought Leicester would regret sacking Pearson) Is troy deeney available now? And should we be interested? | |
