So, how have my chosen teams been getting on in my absence from these boards? Those who have followed these ramblings (HELLO DEBS!!) will possibly know I follow these teams through either a lifetime of struggle, having lived there or some other tenuous link ...
Watford FC. We're doing
ok...19
th in
The Championship BUT the football is much more fun than last years dross. A club I've supported from
childhood.
(Recall supporting Leeds Utd for some reason (probably the Yorkshire link and the fact that my
cousin Christine's other half followed them)).
We moved from
Eaglescliff when I was a 5 something and I grew up in
Chesham, a few miles from the ground. My best mates brother was fan and led me down the demon path when
WFC were a spot in the lower leagues. Find their history
here.
Moved here just over three years ago to be with Suzie :) Decided
to watch the local
non-league team when I could and have gradually become more involved!! Going to watch them today over at
Watford (
Oxhey Jets) with our new manger -
Ossie Ardilles' son
Then there's this lot - T
he Mooloo's !!! Otherwise known as
Waikato Rugby Club in Hamilton New Zealand.
Now, when we were planning trip
last year I look
ed up which club was closest to
Tauranga, and it was
The Steamers. BUT when I was unpacking at Jack and Denice's paradise, they noticed my
Watford scarf and suggested that I had come
pre-pared!! Just look at the colours and you'll see why... So now I'm fully committed
Mooloo supporter ( they lost their last game of the season last week to Hawks Bay in the Air New Zealand Cup).
By proxy, I'm also a follower of this lot as well - the regional kiwi team
that
plays in the
Super 14 cup... Go
Chiefs!!
