i quite like zola... but i do think there best chance was last season which they fluffed

but like city we had to have a few stabs at it before we popped that bubble

but the championship is stronger than ever... theres a few teams at the top that could easily compete with the lower half of the prem league

but yeah its silly season for managers again

I would be very surprised if Zola has got another job lined up, it was a question of him jumping before he was pushed. The rot started in March last season, Watford have only won 10 of the last 33 games he can only play 3,5,2 and teams have worked him out but he will not change. You should be hoping he goes to WBA as they would get relegated
