The Opposition View - Hull City (Away)

April 20, 2023 13:28 - 25 minutes - 35.3 MB

We’re joined by Ant from To Hull And Back podcast as we preview this weekend’s match away to Hull City. After much talk about Turkey we take a look back at a player that represented both teams in black and white when he wasn’t competing in Eurovision with Brotherhood Of Man.  Steve Terry’s headband is discussed, Peter’s Star Man isn’t, the prediction league is treated with the contempt it deserves and we hear Ant’s dogs reminding him who they are playing against in their next match. COYH ...

PART ONE TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Watford 1-3 Cardiff City

April 20, 2023 10:37 - 53 minutes - 48.6 MB

I'd like to apologise firs because in the main, I try to stay as neutral as possible whilst hosting the Post Match Phone In. It is a privilege to talk to our supporters at a time when emotions are heightened but after the Cardiff capitulation I failed to be neutral. My anger wasn't reserved or even mainly to do with the pathetic attempt at football that was presented it but the increased level and approach to stewarding towards the half empty stadium that had actually made the effort to turn...

NOT REALLY The Opposition View - Cardiff City (Home) - not here

April 18, 2023 10:33 - 38 minutes - 35 MB

Without a Cardiff representative and without a tardy Carlos at the start, Pete and Justin cover off the “preview” element of the podcast in record time in order to talk about amongst other things Nigel Pearson’s forearms, liking defenders that shout at other people, Carl turns up but needs to untangle his leads, our latest guest from America - Jack and how as hosts we are just rubbish!! Guided tours of Pinner, the pond and a subway, Pete not fitting into greasy spoon furniture, Beans on toas...

PART TWO POST MATCH FAN REACTION - Watford 2 - 0 Bristol City

April 16, 2023 10:58 - 42 minutes - 39.3 MB

We finish off our chat with Chris split with a trip to a bad tempered Carl with a low battery and more importantly Jack from the US on his birthday getting to the Vic for the first time ever for a win (just pipping Beans on Toast as a match day/birthday experience into second place), John Parlsow joins us from Chorleywood Common with a charity request (whilst woefully underestimating the cost of a sausage roll in the ground) and also to call out the fine prosthetic leg protest work of Rio Wo...

PART ONE POST MATCH FAN REACTION - Watford 2 - 0 Bristol City

April 15, 2023 22:28 - 42 minutes - 38.9 MB

A strange game settled by an own goal and goalkeeping handling error goal, but we still look somewhat dysfunctional. Ryans' Andrews and Porteous get praise as does an electrifying performance from Pedro and this is enough to see off a well-received Nigel Pearson’s Bristol City side to move within 3 points of the top six (but still a highly unlikely target) Brett starts the calls with an odd student days metaphor for the play offs (which we are miraculously only 3 points away from!), Neal jo...

The Opposition View - Bristol City (Home)

April 13, 2023 11:06 - 27 minutes - 37.5 MB

David from the Forever Bristol City podcast joins us to preview the forthcoming match at Vicarage Road. There's a considerable amount of chat about Keith Millen, nobody remembers Gerard Lavin, the prediction league is it's usual shambles and we marvel at the size of Nigel Pearson's forearms, This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch Your Eyes.

DO NOT SCRATCH YOUR EYES - A DARK TOWEL ON A DARK DAY

April 12, 2023 11:25 - 37 minutes - 34 MB

On Good Friday something unpleasant went on - and we're not talking about Neil Warnock disappearing back up to Yorkshire with three points. A number of people started to question the ownership of the club. We are all in favour of communications with the clubs hierarchy and are trying to help organise just that however on a day that saw some banners unveiled, it appears that only those critical of the owner were dealt with by the stewards on hand. Here Pete gets to talk to Rich who when unvei...

PART TWO POST MATCH FAN REACTION - Coventry City 2 - 2 Watford

April 11, 2023 15:11 - 1 hour - 60.2 MB

This half is quite surreal - even for us!! Also a regular "F" Bomb ot 15 are dropped even more than normal So - Jack tells us about a dream where he became Luton Town Assistant Manager for 15 minutes, Sean gets lost trying to find the Coventry City stadium but winds up at the training ground because of a disobedient sat nav, Ian Bacon and John Parslow end up chatting with each other about “Cofundus Charms” whilst Pete tries to put 50p in the twitter meter! Blue Cheese Brett joins us and com...

PART ONE POST MATCH FAN REACTION - Coventry City 2 - 2 Watford

April 10, 2023 23:53 - 1 hour - 55 MB

2 goals up at half time at the CBS Arena and playing better in a 4-3-3 shape Watford let a goal in and for the final half an hour are holding on against a Sky Blues side that really hadn't troubled us until then. We have Watford and Coventry City fans views, we ask the question was or wasn't it a penalty (it was!!), Ellie tells up about her weight loss, Wendover tells us about his Spag Bol and we hear Neil call in from Kathmandhu but isn't very impressed with the place!! Pete gets carried aw...

PART TWO TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Watford 2 - 3 Huddersfield Town

April 08, 2023 21:45 - 1 hour - 63.2 MB

Part Two of the Huddersfield post mortem where we hear from a couple of first time callers and dip into the 5 word and long form reviews and discuss what we think the rest of the season might or might not look like. As ever thank you to everyone who contributes in writing or joining us live - we wanted this to be a barometer of fans opinions and you all make it that and more - thanks. Oh and sorry about the swearing as always :-) This Podcast has been created and uploaded by Do Not Scratch...

PART ONE TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Watford 2 - 3 Huddersfield Town

April 08, 2023 10:10 - 1 hour - 55.8 MB

And the hits just keep on coming..... after the derby result the faithful come to Vicarage Road in the hope of a reaction from the playing squad to both the previous game but also the management comments made about them. The hope is that we would see character, resilience, determination, energy and a determination to win each individual battle. What we saw wasn't that bar a very honourable mention for Yasser Asprilla our youngest player (more youth had been expected to be involved but was no...

The Opposition View - Coventry City (Away)

April 07, 2023 22:06 - 35 minutes - 32.7 MB

Recorded ahead of the disastrous home performance against Huddersfield, we recorded this looking ahead to Monday's trip Coventry with David from the "Whats the craic" podcast. We discuss amongst other things Coventry's season, their change in ownership, Mike Ashley, Victor Gyokeres and other players, Mark Robins, John Eustace, Marvin Sordell (who Justin fails to recognise) and exactly how fast Mickey Quinn wasn't. We give predictions for the result which will work out about as well as normal...

DO NOT SCRATCH YOUR EYES - FINANCE REPORT SPECIAL

April 05, 2023 11:53 - 47 minutes - 43.9 MB

You're not expected to listen to this - especially if you just want to follow the football and don't care for following the financial performance of the club! Here Pete goes through his interpretation of the accounting report released last Friday 31st March which covers the 2021-2022 accounting year for the club. This is Pete's genuine reading of the accounts published and we are more than happy to have any more qualified, forensic analysis to contest the statements made in this podcast, ho...

The Opposition View - Huddersfield Town (Home)

April 05, 2023 07:59 - 33 minutes - 30.6 MB

We catch up again with Rich (Kosi) from "And he takes that chance" podcast to talk about Huddersfield Towns season and the galvanising effect a manager can have on a club (!!!!). A Harry Potter character gets a mention, Justin has flashbacks of being on a coach in Bedfordshire, we discuss a goal that a certain Huddersfield Town player grabbed an assist in, Justin has flashbacks of the derby defeat, we talk about loanees and Justin has a flashback about Roy Hodgson! Normal nonsense different...

PART TWO TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Luton Town 2 - 0 Watford

April 02, 2023 12:55 - 55 minutes - 50.8 MB

The second half of the Derby day aftermath sees a couple of reports from Non league grounds, a fabulous call from Paul Holly asking about the owners exit strategy or lack of it and we have some really rather sweary reviews. Finally Justin finishes off by telling us about seeing his favourite TV series filing locations! Massive thanks to all our listeners, lurkers and contributors as always. Huge thanks to our Patreons: Chris Giannone, RichWFC2, Steve Holliman, Ian Ball, Paul Fiander T...

TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Luton Town 2 - 0 Watford

April 01, 2023 19:13 - 47 minutes - 43.1 MB

Please note there is very strong language and quite a bit of it...... The first half of the no-show at Kenilworth Road. Supposedly superior individuals were shown up to be an inferior team unit against a side that has been put together on a fraction of the cost and with a Manager who was discarded by our club's hierarchy after 10 league games this season. Of course losing in a derby is supposed to hurt and this certainly did - but does it also go towards questions that should be put at the ...

The Opposition View - Luton Town (Away)

March 29, 2023 12:59 - 34 minutes - 48 MB

So it's that Derby tine of the year - whether you call it the the M1 or Herts/Beds Derby - its the match you just don't want to lose. We speak to Billy again from the Oak Road Hatter podcast about last Octobers game and everything that has happened since from Rob Edwards joining them and Slaven Bilic leaving us and how they are very content with the way things have gone since Nathan Jones departure. It's all measured and informed and then Justin and Carl weigh in and things all go off kilte...

DNSYE - M1 DERBY SPECIAL WITH ANDY COLLINS AND JUSTIN DEALEY

March 27, 2023 13:00 - 45 minutes - 62.5 MB

With the Luton v Watford game at the end of the week all eyes will be on Kenilworth Road! We look ahead with the gruesome twosome Andy Collins (Watford) and Justin Dealey (Luton Town) to discuss the last derby match, events and managers since, the Dalai Lama gets a number of mentions and Andy makes it to the second half of the show before using the word "Bachmann". Other surprises include the "Commentary Challenge" where our two guests compete in an increasingly unfair challenge to identify ...

A Bit Of A General Catch Up Before Luton Away

March 24, 2023 11:28 - 42 minutes - 58 MB

We catch up with media tart Carlos, play a game Peter has invented called "Frustrating Or Irritating" talk through your suggestions for the worst thing that has happened under the Pozzo ownership and give a brief update on work being done on the supporters committee DNSYE is part of the TalkSPORT fan network.

PART TWO - TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Watford 1-1 Wigan

March 19, 2023 10:43 - 1 hour - 73.9 MB

Following on from Part One (as Part Two's tend to do) Pete goes off on one to try to let everyone know where we are at this moment in time on trying to properly organise the fan/club interaction alluded to in Scott Duxbury's programme notes - this is now with the supporters and that must mean ALL supporters. Give it a listen and see if you help or support but of course if you disagree let us know that too. Twitter was not letting people on to talk on occasions but we still continued the po...

TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Watford 1-1 Wigan Athletic

March 18, 2023 23:55 - 48 minutes - 44.1 MB

So a frustrating game as we see the play offs become a less distinct possibility as every game slips past us we ask - would you take missing out on the play offs if it meant winning the double over "them up the road"? And then we look back at Wilders first three games and ask would you be happy if we appointed him as a two year head coach role? Pete parks the "ParlaciGino" stuff (untilt he start of Part Two - boy is that a rant!) but Carl comes on and starts going off about it until he final...

#ParlaciGino and Pay It Forward sponsorship

March 17, 2023 08:28 - 27 minutes - 38.4 MB

In this episode we discuss #ParlaciGino and why we think it's important for the owners of the club to talk to the fans, a new sponsorship initiative that we are implementing, recent form and of course, pickled onions.

The Opposition View - Wigan Athletic (Home)

March 15, 2023 22:53 - 28 minutes - 38.5 MB

The wonderful Barry from the Progress with Unity podcast returns as we cover Wigans financial situation, their season, a management appointment so bad that ever Watford wouldn't make it, Nathan Ellington is remembered fondly (not by DNSYE) and we all like Sir Ben Watson and remember his FA Cup winning goal for the Latics which is coming up to its 10th anniversary. No Wigan kebabs were harmed in the making of this podcast DNSYE is part of the TalkSPORT fan network. This Podcast has been cre...

PART TWO TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Watford 3-0 Birmingham City

March 15, 2023 11:29 - 45 minutes - 41.8 MB

PART TWO. We carry on with the calls after the win over Birmingham, we get corrections on our bad Italian pronunciation from Jimmy Pesto (Chris) around the #Parlaci Gino and we promptly promoted him to head of swearing for DNSYE (how we had survived without this appointment up til now astonishes me!), Alan gave us a damning critique of Sky's Red Button commentary including anger inducing commentary remarks about (the lack of) replays!! We start to cover the 5 word reviews and then we joine...

PART ONE TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Watford 3-0 Birmingham City

March 15, 2023 01:18 - 49 minutes - 45.3 MB

72 hours on from a disastrous performance Chris Wilder made some changes which were in part forced but the performance we saw was one to warm the cockles! Not perfect but a seismic leap from the weekend. That being said we are determined to yes enjoy the result and the performance but also to acknowledge the troubles that the club still has. So we discuss the "Parlaci, Gino" campaign as well as bathe in the warm glow of three well constructed and taken goals - even Britt's less than graceful...

The Opposition View - Birmingham City (Home)

March 12, 2023 15:00 - 34 minutes - 31.5 MB

As we look to welcome back two former Hornets captains in legendary talisman Troy Deeney and inspirational John Eustace with Birmingham City we speak to Zac from Blues Focus Podcast about how they are getting on at St Andrews. We also discuss big haired players, blood oranges, stadium issues and Blues faltering form and wishes for the future. We also note that Zac looks a bit like WD18 Sam Ucko in a similar small room (but you cant see that so you'll have to take our word for it!). We hope ...

PART TWO POST MATCH FAN REACTION - QPR 1 - 0 Watford

March 12, 2023 11:39 - 57 minutes - 52.5 MB

Part Two and as ever some great callers talking about the culture at the club and the fact that many feel disenfranchised so much that they have made the decision to walk away - then Terry came on and started talking about going down a Tiger Slide and we all thought it was a metaphor but no - he really went down a Tiger Slide!!! All the 5 words and Long form reviews and comments. Than you to all contributors, listeners and lurkers as always!! DNSYE is part of the TalkSPORT fan network. ...

PART ONE POST MATCH FAN REACTION - QPR 1 - 0 Watford

March 12, 2023 00:00 - 1 hour - 59.8 MB

So we capitulate to a QPR side that is devoid of its best most creative players, who have one once since the end of October - how Watfordy is that! The answer is very but that doesn't go far enough to describe the abject and disparate nature of this performance which was as far removed from a "new manger bounce" as you could get! Everyone is upset, Carl dislikes Pete and Justin's sofa's for being comfortable and warm (we suspect Loftus Road was neither of these things) and for Uncle Rons ca...

Bonus Episode: Managers, Radio appearances, Unpopular Opinions & Songsmiths

The mics are open and the opinions are flowing in this bonus episode. The new manager is discussed, we appear on the BBC, we kick around some unpopular opinions about Watford FC (yellow shirts, the 'cult' of GT, would Silva have become our best ever manager?) and then we are entertained by a song!

DO NOT SCRATCH YOUR EYES - BILIC OUT WILDER IN

March 07, 2023 19:52 - 1 hour - 74.8 MB

Raw and unedited - As the news was breaking we fired up the Twitter Spaces to judge peoples reaction to releasing Bilic and as the Phone In continued to the appointment of Chris Wilder. Whilst people understand this replacement there is a deep concern at the issues remaining at the heart of the running of Watford FC. COYH!

PART ONE TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Watford 0-0 Preston NE

March 05, 2023 00:25 - 53 minutes - 49.3 MB

Well we really wanted this to be an upbeat and hopeful post match phone in, but the game and performance were so low on quality, coherence, game plan or anything to really get us on the edge of our seat, that it ended up as a post mortem of the game and potentially Slaven Bilic's tenure at Watford. After 26 league games and a further transfer window are we in any better shape? This was the game when we had pretty much our main players back and with some game time in their legs but it fell we...

TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Sheffield United 1 - 0 Watford

February 26, 2023 00:33 - 1 hour - 60.7 MB

A strange game an exciting end to end first hour and then the substitution of recently returned Imran Louza see's us lose our rhythm and balance. Throughout we look ok at the back and in midfield with Hamza working furiously throughout but we seemed to lack spark or creativity in the final third. What chances we create fall to Keinan Davis who fails to work the Blades keeper. With the Moroccan international off though the Blades start to really get some momentum but even then it is a set pie...

The initial slightly confused reaction as a chaotic game ends in a win at the Vic. Some see the three points and others see the performance and substitutions.

PART ONE TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Burnley 1 - 1 Watford

February 15, 2023 07:37 - 59 minutes - 54.2 MB

Part One of a marathon post match phone in. Gutted by the last minute equalizer at Turf Moor leaves honours even as The Clarets remain unbeaten at home but we end their 10 game winning run. A game of contrasts as the team staunchly defends but looks lacking going forward. Tom Cleverley's pre match injury is covered but the hot topic is the late substitution and whether it helped or hindered. We would have all taken the result before the game but on the 94th minute you would have hoped we wou...

February 12, 2023 12:11 - 54 minutes - 50.1 MB

Part Two - hears some of the Paul Holly stories set up by Neil S in part One and we extend the conversation around the imbalance between liking Slaven's demeanour and the results and performances all set against the past behaviours of our owner when not everything seems settled. We hear more tenuous connections to the club and therefore we hear about stretcher bearers, Battochio water colours, Lee Nogan and Spaghetti Bolognaise and not recognising international forwards!!!

PART ONE - We here from Jimmy and Nick who have flown in from the US for the game. Whilst the game was a bit frustrating it sounds like the lads had a great time including Nick getting drunk with Carl's mum. In the meatime we found out what people thought of the game and Porteous and Hoedt at centre back came in for praise, some didn't and Wendover Horn introduced us to his Mother in Law who was in the car.

PART 1 TWITTER SPACE FAN REACTION - Reading 2 - 2 Watford

February 04, 2023 23:38 - 46 minutes - 42.4 MB

They say that a 2 goal lead is a dangerous lead and it certainly turned out to be here, however despite letting that lead slip away along with 2 points there were some positives here in terms of impact from newly acquired players. Here we hear the first part of the reactions and whilst some call for Bilic's head, many others think this is the time to calm the ship rather than jettison yet another manager. Carl calls in whilst Jason has an altercation with another driver in the Reading car p...
