    :emoticon-0148-yes:

    Here's one that I actually don't have a definitive answer to - but I have in my head two very strong possibilities, so whoever can match either of them first - or come up with one that beats mine...

    Which Watford player was the first to have a terrace song based on a pop hit dedicated to him - and what was the song?

    My two are definitely from the 60's - they played together for a season, one in his last year with the club (a Scotsman) and the other (a Yorkshireman) in his first year with the club.

    The Scotsman was sadly missed, if his song was anything to go by...

    Was trying to think of a clue - but having mulled over this overnight, I'm very definitely leaning towards the Scotsman. Both his first name & surname are typically Scottish...

    The Yorkshireman I referred to was Brian Garvey - The Rookery changed the title of the song Hare Krishna to his name...

    No - not really a Scottish name. Think 'see you...'
    The name truly gives the song away...
