Congratulations

Congratulations to David Watson after it was announced that he will be assisting Ray Clemence with the England goalkeepers.

What was his height. I always remember him having difficulty with crosses, and there was his Knee problem.
Who called him up to the coaching staff and is Ray Clemence still in it?

Well done Dave lad. Just rewards. I have his signed gloves, from the Premiership promotion season

Massive congrats to Dave. I went to school with his brother and Dave used to come in now and then and play tennis and cricket in our PE lessons. I still remember being clean bowled by him! He always had time and encouraging words for us, and I hear he's carried that on with his coaching. Ben Foster and Jack Butland have nothing but good things to say about him.

Good luck Dave.

Don't forget Joe Hart! Watson coached him at Birmingham during his formulative years!

He sorted out the crosses thing in the end, and I think had he continued his career could well have been a contender for England.

I'll always remember that quarter final at St James' where he played a blinder.
