We also need to be careful here. Don't want key players banned for the crucial remaining fixtures

Agreed - get to 75 and sub Flemming and Cullen off. We need them on Monday.

Most Watford players have spent most of the game looking genuinely surprised when they have been penalised for blatant fouls

Both reds have been more than fair

Still a dire level of refereeing all round though

Stupid from the Watford player. You don't do that with your arm when already on a yellow.

We've been massively let off by Watford. They've bullied us but not been able to show any restraint when clearly the better team.

Right, don't let it slip. Don't get sucked into stupid fights. Keep it steady. Calm heads needed.

But they have both been yellow cards. Not the refs fault that they’d both already been booked!

I'd get Flemming off now and save him for Sheff Utd. With him being on a yellow it'll only take the smallest of infringements for the ref to send him off.

Barnes can take over for the last 15.
