Chapter 8 – Gerry and Pat

  • Summary

  • ‘He wanted to play with two wingers and attack. I thought, I love this guy.’


    Graham Taylor goes shopping again, spending a significant amount of Elton John's investment on a player from each of the North London giants and a much less heralded arrival from Oxford United.


    Two men from Northern Ireland were key to Watford's plans to push for promotion. Pat Rice had been Bertie Mee's captain at Arsenal. Gerry Armstrong was an eye-catching striker at Tottenham Hotspur. They were joined by Les Taylor, a hard-working midfielder from Third Division Oxford, and once they had settled in, Watford began to look like a team that was going places.
