Watford officially became the first team relegated from the Premier League this season after a tepid draw with Manchester City. One always has to feel a bit sorry for the fans of a relegated team, although it’s not as if Watford fans couldn’t see this coming. I tried to find some interesting facts to share about Watford before they leave the Premier League spotlight, but they were few and far between. Here are the ones I could come up with:
- Elton John once (perhaps still) owned the club and is now honoray Life President
- Former England manager Graham Taylor has managed the club twice
- Former players include John Barnes and David James
I can’t say I’ll miss Watford, as they are infuriatingly on FSC every weekend, but the league will surely miss their bright yellow unis.
