Can't agree - the benefit of being in the Prem is being able to watch every match. We've been awful and QSF didn't change anything in an effort to improve matters.
Once Plan A was no use, around Xmas, there was no Plan B, C or anything else. Thanks for keeping us up, but time for a change. If we stuck with Plan A next year, we'd be in deep doodoo.
Continuing to play Jurado and Abdi on the wings - wtf?!

I understand how fans of other teams can struggle to understand what has happened. Have a read of this article which sums it up well:

Would I have settled for 17th at the start of the season? Sure.
Would you settle for unconvincingly escaping relegation when you go in to the Christmas period 1 point from the Champions League places?

Unconvincing? You're 10 points clear of the relegation zone and could finish in 11th place despite starting the season having been odds on favourite to be relegated.
Sorry but it seems like total ingratitude on the part of the owners and I struggle how any fan could be anything but delighted with the season.
QSF has totally failed to attempt to halt the slide in form. He has persisted, week-in, week-out in the same formation and same players out of position. The player he shows most loyalty to, Jurado, continues to be picked and played out of position despite the fact that as our main attacking mid-fielder he has scored none and has no assists.

The FA cup performance against Palace and the capitulation to a Norwich side firing blanks were the final nails in his coffin.
This isn't the same old Watford. We have rich backers who have pumped one of the highest PL spending sprees in to the club this season. The plan at the start of the season was to survive, but once we over-achieved that and then teams worked us out, he was totally inflexible. Next season would have been a disaster if it had continued next season.
He wasn't sacked, he insisted on a break clause in his contract after one year - the club used his own clause against him.
