Name: Gordon Kelly
From:  Ravenstone, Leicestershire

Q: Why do you support Watford and how long have you followed them for?

A: I was brought up in Watford but moved to the Midlands with my career. My first match was against Aldershot in 1959.

Q: Take us through a normal home matchday for you, from where you have to travel from right up to taking your seat in the stadium?

A: Nowadays my son mostly drives. We leave between 10 and 10.30am and park at West Herts Sports Club where I have been a member forever and, as I am not driving, I enjoy a great beer before walking to the ground where we sit in the Upper Rous.

Q: As a supporter how hardcore are you?

A: I'm a season ticket holder, during the season just gone I missed a handful of away games. Sometimes night games can be tricky with business commitments.
 
Q: What is your most memorable moment following the Hornets?
 
A: There are many, such as the play-off finals, including the great display at Palace in the play-offs, the 4-0 game at Luton and many more but the penalty shoot out at Birmingham in '99 stands out.

Q: What are the most extraordinary lengths you've gone to to get to a Watford game?

A: Coming home from a holiday in Italy two days early to watch us at Huddersfield is a typical daft example! Hey, we won 2-1!

Q: Who is your all time favourite Watford player?

A: John Barnes.

Q: Who is the last truly exciting player you saw play?

A: Ronaldo.

Q: Do you have any football related superstitions?

A: Not any more - I've tried everything with little luck!

Q: How do you fill your weekends during the summer break?

A: Having a normal life!

Q: Club or country? Or is there no contest?

A: Less and less interest in watching multi millionaires stroll around for England.

Q: Are you a singer when you attend games and if so do you have a favourite song?

A: More a worrier! Never sing "Watford `til I die" as I'm too old to tempt fate!

Q: What do you think of the atmosphere at football grounds today? Has it got better or worse and why?

A: Dislike fans baying for dismissals, I want to see 11 v 11.

Q: If you could meet one ex-Watford player, who would it be and what would you ask them?

A: Jamie Moralee and I would ask "who told you that you could play?"

Q: If you had the talent to have been a professional footballer, what position would you play and how would you describe yourself as a player?

A: I would be a midfield ball winner, slow but a good reader of the game.

Q: Do you have a favourite away ground, if so why?

A: Crewe as it is friendly and there's a great chippy and a bar with excellent London Pride.

Q: What is the best away support that you've ever seen at Vicarage Road?

A: QPR are usually up for it but I do not really take much notice.

Q: Do you have a soft spot for another team or do you look out for anyone else when the results come in?

A: Smaller clubs punching above their weight.

Q: How active a supporter are you away from matchdays?

A: I belong to East Midlands Hornets.

Q: How do you think opposition supporters view the club?

A: Mostly see us as a good model.

Q: Do you think the club is still staying strong to its community values and how important is that for a supporter?

A: Yes they do very well and it is vital.

Q: If you could change one thing about football, what would it be and why?

A: The top four etc to clear off to Europe full-time so the rest of us could have a more even playing field.

Q: Homegrown players. Just how important are they for the club and what does it mean for supporters to see a youngster coming through the ranks?

A: Essential - personally I warm to them more than to imports initially.

Q: What are your feelings on the Premiership? Has it been good or bad for the game or is the answer somewhere in between?

A: Bad.

Q: How do you feel about the large amount of British clubs being brought by businessmen from abroad? What would be your reaction if it happened to your club?

A: I'm not keen - I hope it does not happen to us

Q: Do you prefer new stadiums or old grounds?

A: I know good and bad examples of both!

Q: Where do you see the club in 10 years time?

A: Hopefully in the Premiership or as a promotion contending Championship club, solvent and solid.
