24th October 1998- New Division One, Watford 2 Port Vale 2 Leave a Reply BSAD report: The debutant’s two goals will grab the headlines, and rightly so. But, in truth, he had a curious match. Ironically, his strength also proved to be his weakness. Like Nick Wright, he appears to have a knack of appearing in the penalty area unnoticed at the right moment, something that will certainly guarantee him goals. Unlike Wright, he also appears to be well versed in the art of finishing such opportunities. The problem, therefore, was not in his performance but in his position – as a right winger, he wasn’t available enough in our approach play. That was frustrating, particularly when his moments on the ball were artful and aggressive. Our attacks leaned heavily to the left as a consequence. http://watford.fcdb.info?s=33679&id=4324 Share this: Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook
23rd August 1997- New Division Two, Watford 3 Brentford 1 Leave a Reply BSAD report: Y’know, there was a time not so very long ago when writing one of these reports involved little more that topping and tailing the handful of noteworthy incidents with a few bits of my usual waffle. It seems that those days are gone – you could write a book about this game, such was the richness and potency of football on offer.

24th August 1996-New Division Two, Watford 0 Millwall 2 Leave a Reply Kenny Jackett’s first programme notes as Watford Manager. http://watford.fcdb.info?id=4197 BSAD report:There are some matches for which you just can’t wait to write a match report – maybe a player’s done so well that you feel the need to tell everyone who wasn’t at the game, maybe there was a fantastic goal that you have to describe, or maybe the team simply won in a confident, competent fashion. You ought to have guessed by now that this is not one of those matches. Share this: Share on X (Opens in new window) X Share on Facebook (Opens in new window) Facebook
