Framed Prints
Framed Print of Elton John, singer and songwriter pictured during his interview for John Gibson
Elton John, singer and songwriter pictured during his interview for John Gibson, Chief Sports Writer at The Newcastle Chronicle in November 1977.
Elton wears a Watford Football Club on his left lapel and speaks passionately about the club. He talks of other clubs having no ambition, and says I ve devised a five year plan aimed at getting us into The Second Division. Watford are sitting at the top of the fourth division as of this picture. He went on to say I ve given five year contracts to Graham Taylor and his assistant Bertie Mee. They are fun to work with. They stay. But our ground isn t up to scratch. We have bloody awful offices and no decent premises for the Supporters Club. All that will change. I want a 30, 000 all seated stadium used by all the community as a whole. Whats more. I ll get it. Watford are going places, thanks to Graham (Taylor). Hes fabulous. The best Elton admitted that his introduction to the Watford board caused a few embarrassing moments. Mainly he said, because at the time I was about 6.ft 3inches and had pink hair. It was while I was wearing those bloody big platform boots shows and doing crazy things. Now I m 5ft. 3 inches and wearing suits and ties whenever I am on club business.'
