Do Not Scratch Your Eyes - Benjamin Bloom Special - S2 Ep23

Carl, Justin and Peter get together to discuss the transfer window in light of the injury crisis which sees the Hornets with a pretty strong squad residing in the physio room currently. Going through some of the rumours and some players on a Championship wish list at no point do they allow their lack of knowledge get in the way of their opinions! They cast their eyes to the FA Cup this weekend which sees the men travel to Reading on Saturday and the Women at Crystal Palace on Sunday and we ask has the sparkle gone off the FA Cup?

All the fan reaction to everything that the Millwall and Swansea performances were not, without a recognised first team midfielder in the squad the much maligned Gaspar and Bacuna worked really hard in the centre and Gaspar especially was a revelation. 3 at the back worked much better and a breakaway goal caps off a truly professional, hard working away performance and takes 3 points. However the injuries keep racking up and discuss the recurrent hamstring injuries, the other injuries and the suspensions and we all know we cant get carried away but most of all we focus on the warm glow of seeing a Watford side go out and put in a shift, show some character and we say well done to Slaven, the team and the away support that started 2023 in magnificent form! Well done all. COYH! This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes. The views in this Podcast are not necessarily the views of talkSPORT Hosted on Acast.

A tired and emotional trio of hosts try to pick out the highlights of 2022 (and fail miserably). How bad was the past year anyway - brace yourselves it was actually terrible! COYH!

PART TWO of the bumper Post Match Phone In on Twitter Spaces - The Andrew French section is available as a separate pod as it failed to record - however here we see more fans reactions questioning the ownership and the players but also questioning the management/coaching as the team seem to offer no visible pattern of play. Sorry it took a couple of days to get up online for you all. Thank you so much for all the support through 2022 This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes.

After the 4-0 defeat to Swansea, Andrew French rang us on the Post Match Phone on Twitter Spaces. He had been to the press conference, was staying in a Swansea hotel overnight and wanted to share and emote with other Watford fans. Unfortunately Twitter Spaces made it very difficult for some people to hear him and even the recording did nt work - so we did the next best thing - we called him this morning as he was heading back up the M4 and got his take on things after the game and as we approach 2023. Andrew has been outstanding since returning to the Watford Observer and has returned the local paper to the must read category.

Part One of the post Swansea City 4-0 away defeat. This felt like "the straw that broke the camels back". Lot's of calls and lots of frustration from fans far and wide! We have a number of regulars building on themes of culture and ownership as we see a team bereft of midfielders as it was of effort, commitment and resilience. We also hear from Darren calling all the way from Australia who even from the other side of the planet suffers along with the rest of us and, along with pretty mch everyone on the podcast delivers a good line in swearing momentarily taking the "Sweary Trophy" down under , until we are finally able to get hold of podcast regular Alex King driving back with his Uncle who reclaims for the "Sweary Cup" for Ireland. As ever lots of laughs to go along with the frustration. PART TWO coming very soon including the wonderful Andrew French calling in after the press conference to give the fans the low down on the situation with Slaven Bilic post game - and also, just to vent - cos he's a fan too!

We discussed this with the Pink'Un just before Xmas but we're going to release it early as due to losing at Mordor Dean Smith got the boot, but it sounds like a lot of things are going wrong behind the scenes at Carrow Road and similar vibes to ourselves - so it makes quite interesting reading now This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes.

Justin, Carl and Peter talk to Luke from Swanscast about the last game of the year as travel to the Liberty stadium. We discuss the opposition form and our own Rob Page and Wales performance in the World Cup and the difficulties that FIFA rankings present in terms of seedings. We discuss the joys of beating your local rivals, Pete gets confused about geography, Justin gets his bookies pencil out and we finally make some predictions and then finally Carl isn't quite clear if he's insulting his sister in law or the general Swansea area - don't worry it all becomes clear in the end.
