Our watfordfc correspondent androofrench looks back over a season of following the Hornets for more than 6,000 miles on the road
There were just five away victories from 23 attempts, and all of them against teams currently 12th or lower in the table. The average league position of teams Watford beat on their travels is 18th.
Sunderland was another occasion when Watford let something slip away. They lost a total of 11 points from winning or drawing positions on their travels . . . the difference between 13th place and fifth place. Then there was the extremely false dawn of Slaven Bilic’s first away game, the 4-0 victory at Stoke in October.
Therewith, we reach the bottom of the away-trip highlights barrel. Sadly, there is far more to delve into when we come to the tub of travelling torment. The defeat at Blackburn back in September led to a lot of hostility from the travelling Watford fans and was probably the night that put the writing on the wall for Rob Edwards.
That was the night when some Watford fans left the ground so early they were back home before the final whistle went. Of course, just when you thought it could get no worse, Wilder’s next away game was at Luton. That disaster was there for all to see on TV, which actually helped explain just how limp and disinterested Watford were when discussing the game with neutrals.
