Watford in 2021
Until April 2019, when Watford played at Vicarage Road their players traditionally entered the pitch at the start of the game to the Z-Cars theme tune. However, in mid-April 2019 the team changed their entrance song to Elton John's "I'm Still Standing" More about Elton later, as you would expect.

Striker Luther Blissett holds the record for Watford appearances, having played 503 matches in all competitions between 1976 and 1992, and his 415 appearances in The Football League during the same period is also a club record. Blissett holds the corresponding goalscoring records, with 186 career Watford goals, 148 of which were in the league. The records for the most league goals in a season is held by Cliff Holton, having scored 42 goals in the 1959—60 season. The highest number of goals scored by a player in a single game at a professional level is the six registered by Harry Barton against Wycombe Wanderers in September 1903.

What do we know about the Watfords
Not dissimilar to the Waltons, the family with 17 children all born in a minute a while ago, Watfords also are unique. Whilst we all know about the Waltons, the Watfords are slightly different. Primarily they are made out of an ingredient called brimson, many people in that Watfords are made out of brimson. Prime example is a man called Brimson, a character from the old Charles Dickens days who was in a sexual relationship with Bob Cratchett's wife Cerys. We have sourced a photograph of this person and transferred him in to modern day man.
Brimson the man who bagged Cerys Cratchett behind Bobs back
When Bob found out about Brimson he spent many nights dreaming up ways to kill him, or generally maim him. Unfortunately Inspector Button was working in the area and was trialling a new radio made out of cheese and stopped him. Nobody knows how he did it, but he wasn’t an inspector for nothing.
Luckily the wrath of a Cratchett never came to fruition for Brimson
Things to do in Watford
Harry Potter lives in a studio in Watford and if you ring him he will take you round his studio for money. Cheslyn Gardens is a nice spot, especially for doggers, you can get a big mouthful of ham with a spreadable cheese ending for no money at all. Just bring your car, your mrs and your mobile phone. Another great place to visit is Bushey Rose Garden, now Rose who opened the bushey rose garden some while ago was another let’s say less scrupulous of Hertfordshire ladies. Yes, her bushey roses were known throughout the county but she didn’t make good use of available personal hygiene amenities locally. At times people would stop and sniff and say ‘Ooooooh, that’s fishy’ then Rose would appear and they would all look at each other and give a big sigh. Finally on our adventure through the historical Watford’s is a visit to the Watford Colliseum. Built in 1938 it used to be the place to go to watch gladiators and bull fighting, sometimes a film. It became even more famous when acoustic people turned up there and made noises. It is also available to rent for parties and cookery lessons.
The world famous Watford Coliseum, available for Roman fights and cookery lessons. ( Closed on Thursdays )

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

This is so far an excellent team display. Why do people get personal.Our keeper does not take command at all and I feel for our defenders who are really terrific.BC is basically a kid still.Awesome . | |

You're not far wrong.
I'm watching it in the most painful way possible: reading updates on here and on the BBCs football site.
Maybe I should just fork out the money for Swans TV and save myself the agony of being 2 or 3 minutes behind everyone else 😱 | | | |
