Watford gave City a guard of honour on to the pitch. Jamie Allen took over as captain when he came on as substitute.
Glorious end to an incredible season in retro brown kit. Frank gives fringe players a chance & Simms repays with stunning hat-trick with the 2nd especially good. Torp wraps it up from Allen's assist with a dipping thunderbolt in off the underisde of the bar
