    A portion of lights from each corner has gone out which is causing the issue.

    I'm told the back-up generator has failed to kick in as well.

    Anyone got a number for a leccy from round the WD18 area?

    Just two wins in 10 games in all competitions under Italian boss Claudio Ranieri.

    Could he be sacked if Watford lose tonight?

    It's not inconceivable.

  3. FLOODLIGHT FAILUREpublished at 60 mins

    Watford 0-1 Norwich

    Play has been stopped at Vicarage Road.

    The lights have gone out.

    Might be a metaphor for Claudio Ranieri's job at the club.

    The Norwich fans are dancing in the stands at Vicarage Road.

    Boss Dean Smith grits his teeth on the touchline.

    Surely he won't pull of this miracle come May?

    What have you got now Watford? What's your response to that?

    Goal stands.

    Norwich lead.

    What a HUGE goal that could prove to be.

    As it stands, the Canaries are flying out of the relegation zone.

    Was there a push from Teemu Pukki on Samir in the box when he was sent out wide by Kenny McLean?

    Pukki does lean into the Watford defender to win the ball and VAR is having a look...

    What a finish from Joshua Sargent! He just tries to hook it back in. It's a brilliant goal!

    GOAL - Watford 0-1 Norwichpublished at 50 mins

    Josh Sargent

    Breakthrough!

    And what a superb strike it is from USA international Josh Sargent, somehow hooking the ball from behind him and into the net via the crossbar.

    Mike Dean looks at his goalline technology watch and awards the goal.

    But...

    Straight away Kenny McLean bursts forward and gets in the box. People are scared to touch you in the box. He tried to find Teemu Pukki but it just wouldn't fall for him.

    Better from Kenny McLean, chasing down a lost cause and keeping the ball in play, but Teemu Pukki's shot from a narrow angle goes wide.

    Mike Dean, with outstretched legs, points for a goal kick.

  16. CLOSE!published at 47 mins

    Watford 0-0 Norwich

    Watford are looking the more likely to break the deadlock here and Joao Pedro looks the likeliest to do it.

    The Brazilian traps the ball on the edge of the area but fires his shot over the bar.

    "Always rising."

    Watford 0-0 Norwich

    Ah, here he is.

    Mike Dean whispers something in Moussa Sissoko's ear, the Watford skipper with a smile like 'I have no idea what you just said'.

    Back under way.

    Where's Mike Dean gone??

    Both teams are out on the pitch ready to roll again.

    Joao Pedro and Joshua King exchanged a few words with each other when the Brazilian didn't pass the ball towards the end of the first half.

    I won't repeat the language that was used.

    Anyway it looks like they've kissed and made up for the second half.

    It's a massive game. Watford don't want to come out and press too much to leave that space in behind which Norwich are hoping for. I think we'll be in for an exciting second half.
