3rd March 2015- Championship, Watford 1 Fulham 0

WFC.Net goal commentary: 1

BBC: Watford moved to within a point of the Championship leaders after a narrow victory over Fulham at Vicarage Road.

Guardian: A Troy Deeney goal after nine minutes proved to be enough to move level on points with second-placed Derby County, but only after Kit Symons’ side pushed them all the way.

Sky: Watford headed into the match as the top scoring team in England’s four senior divisions with 69 goals and it took just nine minutes for number 70 to arrive.

BHappy: One of the more remarkable aspects of our recent form has been the degree to which our performances and results have held up despite a degree of squad rotation and tactical flexibility that popular wisdom agrees is unconducive to success.  You don’t tinker, you don’t change a winning team, a “settled side” is the gold standard.  And yet here we are with 11 wins in 15 (now 12 in 16) in the League making not just selection changes every week but formation, tactical changes too, often during games themselves. Some formations and changes are effective, a few aren’t, but the process of changing, of rotating, hasn’t in itself appeared to be overly disruptive – at least not since Slav disposed of the services of the five miscreants, a few of whom might not have been as tolerant of the general approach. This isn’t supposed to work, it’s certainly been credited with upsetting more illustrious teams than ourselves.
