Capture the history and greatest moments of ‘Watford’ through the newspapers, as written at the time.
Starting with coverage of Watford’s 7-1 win over Northampton in 1920, this book charts a glorious history of great games and League titles through the decades of the 20th century.
Top stories include, Watford’s long running 10 - 1 best win over Lowestoft in 1926, the 6 – 1 annihilation of Reading in 1937, the shock away win in the 1950 FA Cup 3rd round over then mighty Preston, the fantastic 7-1 defeat of Crystal Palace in 1954, the brilliant 1-0 win over Liverpool in the 1970 FA Cup 6th Round, the famous 1-2 away win over Man Utd in the 1978 League Cup. Read about the 7-1 humiliation of Southampton in the 1970 League Cup; against all odds Watford pulled back a 4 goal deficit from the 1st leg and sensationally won in extra time. Relive the thrill of Watford’s rise in fortunes under the management of Graham Taylor and Chairmanship of Elton John from 3rd Division minnows in 1978 to 1st Division stardom in the 1980s including the emotional 1984 FA Cup Final against Everton and numerous top scoring results such as the 8-0 defeat over Sunderland in 1982, the 0-4 away win over Leeds in 1984, the 5-0 win over West Ham in 1985 and many more.
Newspaper coverage continues right up to the end of last season. A unique and wonderful gift and must have for all Watford fans.
