Watford owner Gino Pozzo has penned an open letter to the club's supporters following their relegation from the Premier League - admitting there were 'mistakes surrounding the team'.
The Hornets will be competing in the Championship next season after a chaotic campaign that saw three manager sackings and a rollercoaster ride fighting the drop, with their fate sealed on the final day after a 3-2 loss to Arsenal.
The Hertfordshire side looked to be on course for a miraculous survival after Nigel Pearson inspired an upturn in results, but form took a dip after the top flight restart and he was dismissed - with Hayden Mullins taking charge for the final two games.
