Beppe v Zola – a league table
As Watford reach the 40th game of the season, who does Beppe compare to Zola?

You don’t have to have been a Hornet for too long to have experienced pretty much all the game has to offer; promotion, relegation, great football, awful football, terrifyingly dodgy owners, financial meltdown, last minute winners for, last minute winners against, we’ve seen it all in the past decade or so.
