Where's Wood ?

Surprisingly, not injured!

Where's Wood ?

Played Sunday and didn’t get injured, though some Southampton beasties may have given him a bite or two! Lol

Watford head coach Javi Gracia may name an unchanged side following last week's win over Brighton.
That would have Andre and Deeney up front. Andre is not expecting to get booed and says he loved his time here.

They remain without midfielder Tom Cleverley, Gerard Deulofeu, Nathaniel Chalobah and Stefano Okaka.

For Burnley Chris Wood, Johann Berg Gudmundsson and James Tarkowski are among those expected to return.

Burnley have won three of their last four matches against Watford and completed the league double over them last season.
Watford have recorded just one victory in eight games versus the Clarets, a 2-0 home win in February 2017.
The Hornets have not won at Turf Moor since a 3-2 victory in the second tier in April 2004.

Paul Tierney is the ref. His last game was here v Bournemouth last season. Rated near the bottom of PL refs.

Hopefully he's put a new battery in his zapper.

.

I would hope he doesn't get booed, but there will probably be some morons having a go. I was glad to see the back of him, he was a liability in the Prem, but he helped get us promoted, never gave less than 100%, and we made good money on the deals. So he decided he wanted to make more money and play for another club, is that a reason to boo him, I don't think so, not in this day and age, it's just what so many footballers do, might as well boo the weather because it's raining.

[The Bedlington Terrier]

I hope our home supporters have long memories. Gray might not be everyone's cup of tea but his goals in the Championship winning season were priceless and provided the foundation for where we are now.
