He helped the Hornets to an FA Cup semi-final in 2002/03 - where they lost to Premier League Southampton - and notched 21 goals for the club before joining Sheffield United for £500,000.

Sam Vokes has gone from struggling at the foot of League One with Bournemouth to the verge of the Premier League at Wolves, along the way making his international debut for Wales, and notching his first goal for his country. All that in the last nine months.
He made his name for the South Coast strugglers as he [...]
