May 26, 2020 TESTIMONIAL WEEK: Youth & Old Age - Nick Cox & Barry From Watford
In our second special podcast created to celebrate From the Rookery End’s tenth birthday, we talk to friend of the podcast, Nick Cox. Nick is currently Head of Academy at Manchester United and has also had a successful stint at Sheffield United, but here he talks to us about the 12 years he spent with Watford, including heading up the Academy at an extraordinarily difficult and turbulent time.

If Nick is all about the youth, Watford’s favourite octogenarian is at the other end of the age spectrum. In a bonus interview, we talk to “Barry from Watford” about his views on the Hornets and a few other subjects too...

From the Rookery End's search for 100 objects that define life as a Watford supporter and the history of the club continues, with this podcast featuring objects 21-30.

This week, as they should have been, the Hornets are off to the London Stadium to face West Ham, for what many see as the last possible points of the season, Man City and Arsenal next.
The Golden Boys sit on 37 points and the Hammers are down in the relegation battle with us.
Colin is back with full 90 minutes of commentary with a special French co-host. You'll recognise him straight away.

April 29, 2020 Success, Failure and The Future
Being a football fan, especially a Watford one, is always surrounded by success, failure and the prospect of a bright future. So on this episode of the award winning From The Rookery End, Jon, Mike and the Athletic's Watford FC correspondent Adam Leventhal gather to discuss just that. Who would has been the player of the season, was Nathan 'Duke' Ellington really a failure and with hot talent like Ishmila Sarr, what is our future going to be like in the Pozzo scouting network?

We also talk to the Club's Supporter Liaison Officer, Dave Messenger, to find out what's going on at Vicarage Road in a reverse of support and give help to the NHS and Watford General Hospital.

With no football on the pitch you'll be surprised at how much there is to discuss!

April 25, 2020 LIVE COMMENTARY: Watford v Newcastle (but not really)
It's another Saturday without football, so here we go with another imaginary commentary from Colin.
We really hope these fun, some may say silly, commentaries give you some sort of feeling of there being a football match on the radio and it being a normal Saturday afternoon.
COME ON YOU ORNS!!!
