Hornets steer Rocky path to victory

Watford manager Adrian Boothroyd has revealed the secret behind a rare Premiership win for his side: a trip to the cinema to watch Sylvester Stallone.

The Hornets boss is hoping his side, who are still bottom despite beating Blackburn 2-1 at Vicarage Road last night, can pull off the sort of odds-defying comeback associated with Stallone’s Rocky films.
