It's all organised - Cycling for Fairtrade
Stuart Sharkey (Stuart.Sharkey@ultra-mcs.com) writes
"Back in the early summer of 2005, while Aidy was signing such players
as Seites, Devaney, Junior and Griffiths one person had faith to say that we
would be a Division 1 (Premiership) Club by May 06. I have to be honest and say
it was not me. I thought achieving a position of 21st in Division 2 (The Championship)
would be a real achievement.
So who was this person that put us all to shame? Well I’m delighted
to say it was my daughter. So when she and her husband decided last
summer to do a sponsored cycle ride around all the Premiership football
grounds to raise money for Fairtrade, the comment was made that
Vicarage Road would have to be included as they would be in Division
1 (The Premiership) by then. So don’t worry, leave your finger nails
unchewed, it’s all organized, Premiership, here we come.
If you would like to reward this amazing piece of foresight with your support, words and
cash, the web site is www.cycleforfairtrade.com.
Thank you."

Sale of memorabilia
David Prutton (david@davidprutton.wanadoo.co.uk)
writes "I am moving to Canada even though it hurts me to go
and leave the Orns behind, especially bearing in mind the Aidy Boothroyd
revolution. As a result of this move I am looking for a good home
for my collection of videos, programmes and books. I have attached
details (PDF file, needs Adobe Reader).
I feel that these things should stay close to the Vic. I have spent
quite a lot of money acquiring the collection so I am looking to
sell rather than give it away, plus the money will help soften the
blow of not being able to watch the Orns in the flesh. Contact details
are in the attached."

Programmes for sale
Colin Reid (ears_2_big@hotmail.com), a Hamilton Academicals fan,
writes " Hi there all hornets! I acquired some matchday programmes from 1981-1986.
In total there are four with players such as John Barnes, David Bardsley and Pat Rice.
If anybody is interested in them, I am willing to do a deal as I feel you would probably
appreciate them more than me. Good luck for the season!"

David Walker (thebarracuda1@hotmail.com)
writes: "I'm trying to get hold of a 1969 Watford goalkeeper's jersey!
As you can imagine its not easy to get hold of one as demand is
probably non existent and they are not top of everyone's Christmas
list, but if you knew anywhere/anyone that may have a replica (or
original!!) I'd be very greatful.
I have managed to find an outfield shirt from
this promotion winning season but Ireally need the goalkeeper's
top for a Christmas present. Any ideas???
Thanks."

Programmes for sale
Andrew Keir writes: "I have around twenty old Watford programmes,
most with their accompanying Football League reviews (a freebie
inserted into the programme back then) from the late 60s/early 70s
including the FA Cup semi final with Chelsea at White Hart Lane
after knocking out Stoke and Liverpool. The programmes come in several
formats as they changed a lot in a few years reflecting the times.
These are in good condition as they have been stored in the dry
but I need the space now. I would like to sell them, preferably
to someone with an interest in the club."
You can contact Andrew with an offer at andrewkeir@hotmail.com.
Looking for John Price
John Longman writes: "I am trying to locate an ex-Spurs/Watford
player by the name of John D Price. He played for Eastbourne in
1954, then came to Spurs and when he left he went to Aldershot in
1957. After Aldershot, he played 21 games for Watford. Then he went
to Sittingbourne. I have been in touch with the clubs i have mentioned,
but unfortunately they have not been able to help. If you could
help, I would be very grateful."
