Troy Deeney’s prison spell, Watford career and managerial ambitions

“If I hadn’t gone to jail, I’d be dead now,” Troy Deeney tells FourFourTwo, describing prison as the reset he needed. The outlet reports that he served 13 weeks of a 10-month sentence for affray in 2012, then scored Watford’s 97th-minute winner against Leicester City nine months after his release. Deeney also discusses drinking before non-league matches and his brief spell managing Forest Green Rovers. Looking toward another opportunity in management, he says he has completed his LMA manager’s diploma.
