If you speak to those at boardroom level at Watford, the decision they privately regret most is not the three times they sacked a full-time manager last season but rather their call to retain Javi Gracia into a third season when the club had ended the previous campaign by losing seven of their final eleven Premier League matches and then capitulating in a 6-0 FA Cup final defeat to Manchester City. The one time the Pozzo family decided to be a little sentimental, they saw their survival model collapse.
Its the name everyone thought it would be, Xisco Munoz, the legendary former Dinamo Tblisi manager who honed his coaching skills at the likes of Gimnastic Tarragona and Pobla Mafumet.....yeah.

Who doesn't have the correct coaching badges to manage in the premier League, should he get them up...

Foreign manager nobody has really heard of comes in after a seemingly harsh sacking and slightly improves results enough to lift them to lower mid table obscurity (whilst in prem). Manager then has the nerve to drop Troy Deeney and they are sacked.

Rinse and repeat
BUT as I said above, other clubs their size - Leicester, Southampton, Wolves doing miles better!
'Working' would be where Leicester, Southampton or Wolves are surely?
Before these owners came in they were a bottom half championship clubs, since then they've got promoted, got to a cup final and had several years in the top flight. It's mad but works well for what they want

Going to have to disagree, but clearly 5th in the Championship isn't what they want, otherwise they wouldn't have just appointed someone else?!
There's along way between us and them but eually along way between them and clubs of their size in the Prem, who they must be looking at and thinking, why not us?

At the price of further disintegrating the credibility of the game, polluting any sane sense of professionalism and generally behaving like any kind of decent stewardship of a football club doesn't matter to them. How these people are evaluated as fit and proper owners makes me laugh till I'm sick.
Love the fact their owner has the same name as the blind microfascist in Beckett's Waiting for Godot. Is it an Italian thing, thinking of what happened to our club under Briatore and Ecclestone? Personally, I'd like to see them f*ck off back to their corrupt domestic league and confine themselves to colluding with the criminality of the likes of Juventus and AC Milan.
Relegation doesn't appear to have curbed Watford's appetite for sacking managers. I genuinely hope they fail to secure promotion otherwise other clubs may be tempted to copy their model.
