10 things...
Watford
1 It's south of the M25, M1 & A1M exits which make everything on the other side of Watford up north.
2 You don't have to travel right through central London by underground. Thameslink will leave you up the junction anyway.
3 As the principal Hertfordshire town, how come those dated Earls of Essex strutted their stuff about the place - medieval chavs!
4 Benskins brewery owned Vicarage Road Rec and sponsored Watford FC. In one hell of a mass piss up in 1922, 3rd div football initially kicked off there.
5 One player took out a girl from the Mrs Elizabeth Fuller Free School and picnic'd by the river Colne. She was a brewers daughter, willingly educated in ways of after training alcoholic tasting.
6 Elton John is too ugly to be Gay, even as an ex-Chairman.
7 Long ball revolution of the eighties or long pass of the nineties in Graham Taylor's two spells as boss. Fans could decide if, 'like that I do not.'
8 Hornets reached the FA Cup final in 1984 but lacked a sting in the tale of tackling big brother toughies Everton.
9 Max appearance holder Luther Blissett went to AC Milan for a million. Then came back to get the record - why?
10 Three million for Allan Nielson in a relegation year 2000. A thousand times whoooo?
