    It's as right as it's going to get, methinks. EJ played on this song because both the late, great and ultimately tragic, original frontman Layne Stayley first gig was to see Elton John. Lead guitarist Jerry Cantrell is also a massive fan, as are the other two guys that make up Alice In Chains. Who'd a thunk? I've had Black Gives Way to Blue since it came out and only realised it was SEJ tinkling the ivories about three weeks ago...

    Over to you, Yorkie!

    So, putting everything together - Charles Reep suggested that 80% of goals come from 3 passes or less. So I imagine that this statistic has been disproved, but I don't know who by.

    I knew I shouldn't have posted! Anyway, I recommend the book to every supporter - it's illuminating on many fronts. However, now I can't ask a question from it !
    Ok.
    Whose name has appeared in every Watford Matchday programme since 1984 ?

    Yes I meant every 'home' match.
    No, it's not Elton - even if it should be.
