In all seriousness he should be on the shortlist for manager of the season too. What he has achieved in almost impossible circumstances is unbelievable. Especially considering idiots like me were calling for his head earlier in the season.

The majority of true supporters would never have envisaged our current league position when Mackay departed company with us and must also extend the congratulations to Sean for even being considered for Manager of the Month .. although I do hope he doesn't get it as it always seems to be the kiss of death!!
Whats Malky thinking right now I wonder?

Serial whiner, bad loser and a worse manager than the one he replaced. That will really put the Mockers on his crumbling season and perhaps some sheepless nights!

Surely the bloating Jock has to lose his job if they don't reach the play-offs as he has spent loads of dosh and taken them backwards.
It would be a true miracle if we managed to scrape into the play-offs and Sean would deserve Manager of the Year let alone month, but just to finish above Cardiff would be very pleasing.
I see it is a sell out tomorrow, let's hope that it is a good attendence too and that people have just purchased a dozen tickets for a quid only to use one of them.
Come on you golden boyz.

'Kids for a Quid' days usually result in an ugly defeat, as does the receipt of a 'Manager of the Month' award. But maybe a combination of the two (surely for the first time ever) will see a resounding victory tomorrow?

Reality is amazing as it may seem Watford and SD has a chance with only six games to go to get us into the playoffs and the premier league and change our financial status for the next ten years or more if we learn from previous mistakes. Just one season in the premier league is now worth 100 million made up up one league seasons 4 parachute payments plus all other income gained is in addition to the £100 million.
If we win our five out of six games we will have a 20% chance of the playoffs.
If we win our last six games we will have 75 points and an 80% chance of finishing in the play offs.
None of this is lost on Bas, SD GT, EJ the players and fans.
This finale can be football life changing no pressure there then!
the fantastic results in March is probably the team put together by SD has almost gelled. The players are playing without pressure of relegation and are expressing themselves with less anxiety. Can they now step up to the plate.
Personally, I really believed in this watford team after the Spurs game. Watford's football was outstanding and really played Spurs off the park. This confirmed to me watford fc are as good as anybody in this division.

Agreed 100%, I too wasn't entirely convinced early doors, so well done and sorry for doubting the 'ginger torpedo'
Not sure we're going to make the PO's but hey I think we'd have all taken 11th with 6 games left

It's worth noting that last season Forest got 75 points to creep into sixth place. Our current 57 plus six wins = 75. So if we're remotely serious, it's unlikely we can afford to drop another point. If we're roughly 6/4 to win each of those six games, then we're around 240/1 to win all six. That's what we're talking about. So let's do it!
