There it is then. He’s appeared in an official Watford club tie on TV. It can’t get any more official than that. Gianfranco Zola is Watford’s First Team Manager.

It’s obviously an interesting time to be a Watford supporter, so here at From the Rookery End, we have tried to guage the mood of fellow fans by asking them to sum up their current feelings in one word. We got a fantastic response (Sometimes more than one word, but these are exciting times – we forgive you!), and these are collated bellow. Feel free to add your thoughts in the comments section – we’d love to hear how you are feeling!
