ONE OUT AND TWO IN

Recommended Posts

I was gutted when Kitson left!

But we'd never have experienced the joy of Ormondroyd if he hadn't left!

I can remember reading that over some geezers shoulder on the bus all those years ago. I was fuming, selling kitson and for Ormondroyd at that. How wrong was I. 'Who needs Cantona when we've got Ormondroyd.'

Ahhhh, and in the days when transfer rumours went in two stages, firstly being spotted in local supermarket or sat in their car at red traffic lights, followed by nothing or reported in the mercury. We survived.

I remember in the Mercury there was a one line kind of thought / summary of the day and they covered their arse by going with "Little by Little" - you could take that as bit by bit the squad is taking shape or what a pathetic inadequate bit of business by Brian Little.

To be fair that perhaps reflected the uncertain mood and reaction to the deal, Kitson had been on fire, away to Derby in particular he had run at them all day and ripped them to bits but Sticks had always looked hard to handle against us (though he never really looked as much of a threat for us - never seemed to jump or attack crosses just had a head that was 18 inches higher off the ground than anyone else's). The fact that we got promoted before Derby ( and indeed against them) with Sticks making a contribution vindicates the decision but I was probably one of the " Here we go again, selling our best players grrr" at the time!

I went Watford away, not sure if it was that season or the season after. I still remember Ormondroyd's looping header from miles out going in! Go on son!!

I was there too,Bobby Davison got the other ithink?

Bobby Davison

Sh!t!!!! That's a blast from the past! I can't remember if I'm totally honest. I think Ormo looked stunned he'd scored!! I remember walking by some allotments outside the ground and the Watford fans singing "Watford, Watford, ra, ra ra!!!!
