Not one youth team game against Fulham.
Paul Parker was playing, centre-back.
Dean Coney was up front.
So I had one game against Fulham.
And it's so interesting how things work out.
I had one youth team game against Fulham.
One reserve game.
And then first game of the season, now maybe you're too young to remember, but what used to happen in the old reserve league, combination, whatever it was called.
When the first team played, which I love, the first team played away on a Saturday at three o'clock.
The reserves played at home on Saturday at three o'clock.
So we would play a proper team at three o'clock on a Saturday.
On the pitch.
On the pitch.
So with first game of the season, Watford were playing Oldham away.
The reserves are playing.
Now, what were we playing?
Oh, we had Newcastle.
The reserves were playing at home against Swindon.
Played against Swindon in the reserves.
First reserve game.
