Hi everyone, It's long overdue. But I've finally got round to creating my account on the Forum. I'm a half Danish-half English guy currently living and studying in San Francisco (until early 2010). I've been supporting Watford for as long as I can remember. My dad is from South Oxhey but moved to Denmark with my mum before I was born. Watford is in the blood of my family, and my aunt and uncle are currently Upper Rousers at every home match (and some away). Over the years, I've seen Watford quite a few times. The most memorable matches being the playoff final in 1999, the Palace away semi final (I was only able to get tix in the home section, but some nice steward let me through to the hornets. Sweet memories) and for some straaaange reason I have beautiful recollections of a roughly played match against Tranmere in feb of 1999. We were losing and down to 10 men but Taylor made a triple substitution and we came back to win it... It wasn't pretty, but there was something with the team and the mere 11.000 fans that day! Why don't more managers use triple-subs? I've also seen Watford play in Denmark in pre-season training. In the summer of 2006 I saw them beat Horsens (currently in Danish 1. division - then Danish Superliga) 3-0. The gate was only 95 (report on Blind Deaf and Stupid... I'm the guy described as "the helpful young lad helping out by calling the author a cab that never came"... Sorry... Stupid Danish cab drivers!!). The match was fun. You could here every shout from Aidy and the players. It gave me rare insight into how professional Aidy was as a manager. After the game I had the wonderful experience of talking to Aidy, Alec and a couple of the training staff who were waiting at the team coach. I wished them best of luck with the upcoming Premiership campaign.... Oh, how that season panned out. Living in Denmark I can't claim to be a regular at the Vic, but every time I visit England, I pop down or go away. Even took my somewhat displeased girlfriend to Reading on a Friday evening in January after only just landing in Heathrow. We lost 0-4 and it was 8 below freezing. What a night! Especially because I heard "Elton John's Taylor made ARMY!" for the first time in many, many years. Well, that's about it from me. Looking forward to hearing from you all. C'mon you 'Orns!
