Most other teams make heavy losses reaching for the promised land of PL TV revenues (QPR anyone?), then have to decide whether to double down, or bank most of it for the sake of the club's long-term existence.<br /><br />Watford, on the other hand, could invest in the squad to a reasonable degree without risking a negative spiral if they failed to stay up. I wonder whether the owners will encourage the team to do so.Buxtonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-52751163470587734612015-06-09T20:43:12.530+02:002015-06-09T20:43:12.530+02:00Great piece, thanks!

Watford feels like a club that is laying foundations for longevity and success. As this piece shows, what happens off the pitch weighs heavily towards a club's fortunes on pitch. With so much football analysis that is one-dimensional or overtly emotional, it's great to read an objective and thorough analysis. Would love to read similar treatments on Bournemouth and NCFC.Anilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07297710417543760428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-66298865596633448092015-06-09T10:55:03.225+02:002015-06-09T10:55:03.225+02:00What a thorough, considered analysis of the true p...What a thorough, considered analysis of the true picture. Fascinating read for fans of the club like myself, perhaps certain sections of the popular media would do well to spend a little time perusing this. Long-term, sustainable growth is the only way forward for football and the Pozzo family have an admirable, proven track-record in that respect. We are lucky to have them.Martin Coupenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-487486960623783530.post-21433605474321698542015-06-09T10:23:56.362+02:002015-06-09T10:23:56.362+02:00Informative, accurate, interesting & very much...Informative, accurate, interesting & very much an education!
