1st October 1996- New Division Two, Watford 1 Preston North End 0

Weird old business, this football lark. Last night, Watford’s players were about a minute away from being booed off the pitch (unjustifiably, really, but fans are a fickle bunch) when Steve Palmer finally scored the match-winning goal, leading to mad celebrations and a sense of jubilation when the final whistle blew. Such is the thin line between success and failure, or something like that.
