Farewell Graham. Thanks for all you did early on in your reign.
However I've still got some questions about what happened towards the end.
What did happen to the money we received from the Premiership season, the parachute payments, and the sales of players, in particular Shittu and Henderson?
Why did you go on for so long about us being financially okay (even after Elton's remarks) before revealing we were in trouble?
Why say you are going to ring fence money for the East Stand when it then gets spent?
Why did you part with Aidy when you yourself resigned less than a month later?
Why did you then lead the hunt for new manager when you must have had an idea you were going?
Why is it that you suddenly wanted to start seeing football played 'the correct way'?
If you've been a Watford fan as long as you claim you must realise that our biggest successes as a club have come from playing a more direct style. Yet you've now given us a manager who hankers after playing a type of football that has never been a success at Watford. A man who thinks Doncaster are a team that play football the right way. Couldn't you have got us a man who liked the way Wolves, Birmingham, Hull or Stoke play?
Having installed him you've now left us with this mess.
I said a while ago I didn't want us in a Newcastle type of situation. Actually, in hindsight, maybe Mike Ashley has done the right thing. I think I'd much rather have Malky in charge on a caretaker basis until we know the future of the board and who the new chairman will be.
As it is we have a new unexperienced manager who can't even call on the person who gave him the job in the first place for direct support.
You inhertied a right old mess. You mended the club. Made it better. Made us love it again. Then, money reared its ugly head and everything went wrong. You leave us in a similar mess.
