That ardent devotee of Watford Football Club Elton John tells me his three month old son Zachary already has a complete Watford outfit thanks to club manager Malky Mackay and, he says, he can’t wait to take the lad to his first game. “I want hm to grow up supporting Watford as I’ve done all my life,” he said. “If he decides to support Chelsea, I’ll kill him.”
I had to point out that I am a Chelsea supporter and have been for many years.
Elton’s reply? “Bad luck, mate.”
