Wanderingred Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 1992, last game of the season. We lost 5-2 after as you say we were reduced to 9 men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worthingexile Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 My memory isn't what it was, but I thought we were down to 8 men! - Aizlewood was also given his orders! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redsapper Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Yes I was also at that game and you are correct in the fact that we had 3 sent off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
red panda Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Yes I was also at that game and you are correct in the fact that we had 3 sent off! Think there would have been a pitch invasion that day if there hadn't been quite a high wall or barrier. Fortunately a meaningless, end of season game. Last season was a good game. 2-2 draw and reasons to be optimistic. Still under DMC. One of the last games before everything started going wrong. How fast things can change .....

RedRaw Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 I can remember being in a local pub before the game packed with City.......we all ended up drinking the pub dry and had to go to the local offy to carry on! I also remember it was the height of the 'Rodney King' riots which was being shown on the TV in the pub at the time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dolman Pragmatist Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 The last time I went to Watford attevelt and Allison were sent off, what year was that? The pub next to the cemetery (the one bell?) was shut due to trouble the previous year... And Aizlewood as well, wasn't it? And all before half time...

How fast things can change ..... True it was an end of season nothing game which made it all the more strange for us to have 3 sent off. All 3 were suspended at the beginning of the following season for bans received after this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoke_Gifford_Red Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 will it be unreserved seating? two of us got tickets but another mate buying theres up there In the past when I've been they have once insisted on everything sitting in the correct seats but most of the time everyone goes where they want.

fgrsimon Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 I'd forgotten about the 1992 game too, the ref started sending off all our players in alphabetical order, all the 'A's! Thinking about it in hindsight, maybe there had been a bit of money changing hands in the Far East... Before last night I hadn't been to Vicarage Rd since the 1997-1998 season when City and Watford were promoted and Shaun Goater scored a great breakaway goal in front of the huge away support. I couldn't get my bearings last night what with one stand being missing. Were we in what used to be the home end or has that always been the away end? Only you used to have to make a bizarre walk, a mile around some allotments to get to the away end but last night I walked straight from the High Street/Ring Road in a couple of minutes.

You are right, the away end used to be the home end. Not sure when they swapped things around, but I've been a few times in recent years after we were promoted in 2007 and the end we were in Tuesday night has been the end we have been in.
