The last 20 minutes of this game was as pulsating as you could hope for - it had everything despair, triumph, despair again, a villain in black and finally triumph. Excuse me if I got all shouty but this is every bit Watford!!

We chat with Martin from @footballmartin about all things Saints!! Last year in the Prem, not many incoming transfers (although news comes in whilst we record!) before we get on to the story of Will Still and our own Emma Saunders!!! Untenable get exciting for once but that is soon stopped by the Prediction League post box and dice rolled on shingle beach shenanigans!!!

Watford got their league campaign started last week with a goalless draw at Lewes but in the week in the cup defeated Charlton 7-0. At home to a Plymouth side much improved from last seasons showing Watford again kept a clean sheet and start to get used to their new surrounding at Kings Langley. We caught up with boss Renee Hector about a busy week!

Justin, Carl & Pete start the season off with the exciting launch of the kit that has been oddly received, primarily because of the colour of the sponsor logo. Pete has had a chat with the founder of MrQ and tries to give their perspective and we discuss how many previous sponsors deviated from our core colours (it's more than we remembered) and then we talk about the Dominican Republic and we have the attention span of a goldf...

`The gruesome threesome come together to discuss the first bit of the transfer window and what might come next before moving onto more questions some as inappropriate as ever and Carl turns out not to like protesters so much we think he might start protesting (and then he can dislike himself as much s we already do)!

Another one bites the dust, but this time it isn't just "another one". Tom was classy as a player and as a guy, so much so that he was elevated possibly too early to deal with the pit traps and politics of Watford's regime.
