With Lucas Neill unlikely to feature again for Watford, his Hornets career could amount to a total of just six minutes. But how does he compare to other players in the club’s history?
The defender has this afternoon joined Doncaster Rovers on loan until April 22 - just over a month after he signed for Watford.
However, his brief appearance for the Hornets is not the shortest in the club’s history, with Andrei Stepanov playing for only five minutes in 2009 during Brendan Rodgers’ reign .
Below is a list of all the players who took to the pitch for Watford who featured for less than one half of a football match:
