Watford's search for an away win continues as they went down 2-0 at Derby County to extend their winless run to 12 matches.
The deadlock was broken on 12 minutes through a wonder strike by Michael Tonge as the midfielder's left-footed strike from 25 yards went in off the cross bar.
There were few chances in the game and Derby made sure of the win with less than 15 minutes remaining as Chris Porter slid the ball underneath Loach.
