8 years ago today - Apr 30, 2016

A few drunken Facebook memories popped up today. We’d just lost at Vicarage a road to a 90+ min Troy Deeney winner. Our 11th  consecutive defeat, Watford fans laughing at us, Eric Black our manager and only a few weeks away from falling out of the league. Incredible

If i remember correctly, i was at a wedding - remember my Wife telling me that they had scored in injury time to win the game.

I bet Troy loved it!

Full payback came in January 2020, with a win over Deeney-led Watford which effectively kept us up and put them down.
