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)! A squabble ensues when challenged to come up with a particular Watford eleven and Pete is accused of being technical...

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.

Thank you so much to every listener and contributor.

We are joined by Dan from That Wednesday Week to discuss owners, that game where Bayo turned up, Nathaniel Chalobah, pubs in Chiswick, pubs in Sheffield, Police/sheep dogs and other assorted nonsense.
