Ja's King and Davis on target in England
published: Sunday | December 11, 2005

LONDON, CMC:

REGGAE BOY Marlon King continued his amazing run of form in the English Championship with a goal that helped Watford snatch a late draw while fellow countryman Claude Davis scored his first of the season to extend Preston North End's unbeaten streak to 12 games yesterday.

King, dumped by Nottingham Forest at the start of the season, hit a thunderous strike in injury time as Watford scraped a draw against Plymouth at home in the east of England.

It was the 25-year-old's 10th goal this season after moving to Watford on loan and it cancelled out Nick Chadwick's 48th minute strike for Plymouth.

The goal compensated for King's earlier miss in the 61st minute when with only the goalkeeper to beat, he scuffed his shot wide.

Watford are now unbeaten in eight outings and are now third in the Championship standings behind runaway leaders Reading.

Playing away in the East Midlands, Davis notched only his second league goal for Preston as they drew 1-1 with Derby County.

Davis, a defender, converted a cross from Chris Sedgwick nine minutes after the interval to put Preston ahead. However, the 26-year-old Jamaican
handled the ball 10 minutes from time and Tommy Smith put home the
resulting spot kick to ensure a stalemate.

Preston had not lost a game since September 27.
