First-choice at the start of the 2004/05 season due to Alec Chamberlain's rib injury sustained in the final pre-season game, former Academy goalkeeper Richard Lee went on to establish himself as one of the leading performers in the division with some memorable performances in both League action and during the Hornets' run to the Carling Cup semi-final.

However, a cheekbone fractured in five places at Coventry City just before Christmas of 2004 prevented the shot-stopper from enjoying the Liverpool experience, then a further injury meant mentor, coach and friend Alec Chamberlain finished that campaign between the sticks for Watford. Since then Lee has spent the 2005/06 season on loan at Blackburn Rovers.

Upon returning to Watford Lee proved a more than able understudy to England 'keeper Ben Foster, performing admirably in Foster's absence through injury. Lee started the 2006/07 season as number two to Estonian stopper Mart Poom.
