I was eating my dinner in a corporate hospitality box before last night's game when the big screen in the ground started showing a montage of recent goals scored by the home team. Of all the sports soundtracks that they could have chosen - some of them by geniuses, apparently smile - what they actually chose was The Ecstasy of Gold. And not a cover, either.

Newcastle isn't my club, but I'm warming to them...

I do hope so - I have a client/friend who insists that we go to see all Leeds v Newcastle matches and we haven't been in the same division for some years.

It's an away fixture.

Watch out for freezing cold showers in the dressing rooms.

Watford started playing it in 1963, apparently, (shortly after Everton introduced it) because their then manager liked it and asked for it to be played - and they started a long unbeaten run. The manager was Bill McGarry - who I associate with Wolves rather than Watford.

You're welcome.

Yes, I did look it up, as my use of the word "apparently" was intended to imply. I'm not so vain as to claim to know it all, nor so lazy as to wait for others to do it for me... big grin

ps You appear to have raised the ignition point of paper by 25 degrees or so, but you know that. Thumbs up.

Lazy? Nahhh. Just figured among our football team there would be someone who knew when and why watford got z cars-d up.

The 'apparently' did give a big fat juicy hint that you had, in fact, looked it up.
I, however, was just being obtuse. And unbelievably irritating. wink
