Crowds gather for Graham Taylor’s funeral

Crowds are gathering in the town for Watford FC legend Graham Taylor’s funeral. Thousands are expected to brave the rain to pay their respects to one of the English game’s greatest managers. Many streets in the town centre have been cordoned off to allow for the surge of people attending. Mourners are making their way inside St Mary’s Church, where the service will begin at 1pm. Commentator John Motson, a close friend of Graham, will be speaking at the service and will read a tribute from Elton John. A private family committal will follow the ceremony.
