lb0603 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I was just wondering if anyone knows whether he went to the University of Nottingham for a year because my tutor told me today (after we got talking about football) that he knew one former student - Jobson - was headhunted by Watford during his first year and would like to know if anyone knows if it is Richard Jobson. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know whether he is a graduate or not. My tutor just said a lad called Jobson whose first name he couldn't remember. But I don't recall many Jobson's about at the time (even though I wasn't there) so thought it probably was him. Thanks though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks. Yes, I think he started his career at Watford as a winger and was then converted to a centre half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBigDog Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Just rang his daughter and asked. You are correct. Where is he now? Best centre back I remember at the club (just shaded Earl Barratt for me ) - oh to have two like Jobbo & Earl back at the club... >sigh> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slurms mckenzie Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Yup, Richard Jobson did some cracking tunes, "Into the Valley" and "The Saints are Coming" come to mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pdw76 Posted June 19, 2009 Share Posted June 19, 2009 Yup, Richard Jobson did some cracking tunes, "Into the Valley" and "The Saints are Coming" come to mind. He presented on TV for a while didn't he ;) Yes, he was a cracking player, almost never missed a header and if I remember correctly he had a great shot on him too. I think the females in the crowd considered him popular too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jobbo for England chants are still fresh in the memory, what a great defender Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
