Effort- Burnley 3 Watford 2

A very disappointing result after such a promising first half. Well done to Will on poaching his first goals, especially against an opponent of Clark Carlisle's stature. Shame he couldn't have completed his hat-trick.

It sounded like this season in a nutshell. Good positive exciting play with lots of effort, mixed in with misfortune and occasional lapses of remembering important things like the rules and who is actually on our side.

Despite now being worryingly 21st I completely agree with bhappy's Matt Rowson when he says that already this season is MUCH more fun than the last. I think its got something to do with the effort word. I don't care how low we sink as long as everyone tries their bloody hardest. So far, barring a few performances, most of them have and it should go without saying that injury wise we're getting down to raffling out positions on the bench. Therefore I don't think anyone should panic just yet about us treading water one spot above the relegation zone.
