Watford 0-1 Bolton Wanderers 6-5-5 23 pts.

This week's defensive screw-up comes from none other than Manuel Almunia who dropped a Neil Danns cross in front of the net for Jermaine Beckford to punch into the top of the net at the 26 minute mark.

Adding insult to injury, the Hornets played well the rest of the match, but dropped their third straight home match.

Yeovil Town tries to make it four next Saturday with the Vicarage Road festivities kicking off at 9:00 am St. Louis time.

Middlesbrough 2-2 Watford 6-5-4 23 pts

A last-minute (literally) goal from Daniel Ayala, redeeming a defensive error that gave Watford the lead earlier, cost the Hornets two points and leave them standing outside the playoff zone.

Boro took an early lead with Albert Adomah finding his way through a miscommunicating Watford defense. Troy Deeney equalized with his first goal in seven matches ten minutes later and the match went into the half even at one.

Lloyd Doyley pulled up with a Charlie horse just before the half and was replaced by Essiad Belkalem at the start of the second half. Poor defending by Ayala led to a Fernando Forestieri goal in minute 73, but he erased his own error against Watford's own defensive miscues to salvage the point for Boro.

The next fixture for Watford is Saturday, November 23 when Bolton visits Vicarage Road. Kickoff is 9:00 am St. Louis time.

Watford 0-3 Leicester City 6-4-4 22 pts

I finally manage to get Daylight Savings right and I miss the start time. Yeesh!

Leicester got their revenge for last season's playoff loss vs a struggling Hornets side; all of ten minutes of which I got to listen to. I'm not real disappointed to miss a 3-0 drubbing, but would have loved to hear the first goal as Manuel Almunia's goal kick bounced off of Chris Wood's face and rebounded into the goal.

Header indeed.

Well, maybe next week when Watford travels to Middlesbrough Saturday, November 9. Kickoff will be 9:00 am St. Louis time.
