Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories): January 2015

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories). The ramblings of a middle-aged Watford fan. Tuesday, 27 January 2015. Nineties nostalgia, pt. 3 – Ooh ahh. I’ll be honest, I struggled to find a programme worth saving from the 1991/92 season. In the end I plumped for the January 1992 fixture against Newcastle, purely because it was one of the few games from that season that sparked any kind of memory. 8221; So near, and yet so far. Links to this post. Saturday, 17 January 2015. 3) When the teams were re...

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories): Approaching the bell

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories). The ramblings of a middle-aged Watford fan. Thursday, 2 April 2015. Most track and field events are fairly easy for the casual viewer to appreciate. All the track races up to and including 1500m are over in less than four minutes, while each individual jump or throw is self-contained; even if you don’t see the whole competition, success and failure are usually easy to tell apart.

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories): July 2015
http://watfordthrowin.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories). The ramblings of a middle-aged Watford fan. Sunday, 19 July 2015. Am I the only Watford fan who is beginning to be concerned about how many players we’re signing this summer? This morning’s announcement of Jose Manuel Jurado brings the total to seven, and with the transfer window open for another six weeks, that number may well reach double figures before we’re finished. Links to this post. Saturday, 4 July 2015. Although the club dates back to – w...

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories): We aren’t the champions
http://watfordthrowin.blogspot.com/2015/05/we-arent-champions.html
Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories). The ramblings of a middle-aged Watford fan. Monday, 4 May 2015. We aren’t the champions. I was planning to mark the end of the season with a cosy article running through my memories of the celebrations I’ve been lucky enough to be part of as a Watford fan, from our Division 4 title in GT’s first season to the Play-Off Final against Leeds in Cardiff. But, like most Watford fans, I don’t feel like celebrating right now. 4 May 2015 at 19:33.

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories): Bye-bye Johnny
http://watfordthrowin.blogspot.com/2015/07/bye-bye-johnny.html
Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories). The ramblings of a middle-aged Watford fan. Saturday, 4 July 2015. I’m probably late to the party with this one, but it was only on reading the latest issue of Mojo. That I discovered that Johnny Keating has died. No, not a long-lost Watford midfielder from the 1970s, but a significant figure in Hornets history nevertheless; Keating was the man who composed the Z-Cars. Theme which the players run out to before games at Vicarage Road. Is being played, we&...

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories): Telling tales
http://watfordthrowin.blogspot.com/2015/03/telling-tales.html
Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories). The ramblings of a middle-aged Watford fan. Sunday, 15 March 2015. The most unusual story (and thank goodness for that) was the one that led to the emotional shows of support for Nic Cruwys before and during the game; the players’ T-shirts, a giant banner, a moving round of applause during the 44th minute, more during the half-time interview with Ollie Floyd. Little that occurred during the match roused the crowd to such levels of passion. 8221; from all...

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories). The ramblings of a middle-aged Watford fan. Sunday, 9 August 2015. Living on an island. It may just be my age, but I sometimes think there’s too much Watford FC news and comment out there these days. There’s 24-hour sports news on TV, blanket coverage in the newspapers, numerous websites and blogs devoted to Watford on the internet, not to mention dozens (hundreds? Accounted for approximately 80% of all the coverage of the Hornets in the media. True, by ...

Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories): Nineties nostalgia, pt. 4 – It takes a small man to beat a small team
http://watfordthrowin.blogspot.com/2015/03/nineties-nostalgia-pt-4-it-takes-small.html
Albert McClenaghan’s Throw-In (and other stories). The ramblings of a middle-aged Watford fan. Wednesday, 25 March 2015. Nineties nostalgia, pt. 4 – It takes a small man to beat a small team. It’s December 1996, and Watford’s reward for struggling past Northampton Town in the 1st Round of the FA Cup is a home tie against Ashford Town of the Dr Marten’s Premier League. Who of the what? Appearances can be deceptive, though. It turns out this was only Robbo’s 6th first-team game and Gifton’s...Enter a new h...
