Watford 1-0 Scunthorpe Utd - 29/08/2020 (fr)

The best thing about today's match is we should at least discover who is available to Vladimir at the moment, unless he only intends to play the U23's.

Anyone want to have a go at who will be available in the squad for today?

 

Doucs must be nailed on to start.

 

Excellent shop window for those we want to offload. Everyone playing will be gone by the end of the window.

 

Would Vlad use Doucs though? He might only use those who he knows will definitely be staying and let all those who want away sit in the stands?

 

We need to protect our assets against these northern cloggers. Hopefully Deeney, Dawson, Cathcart and Gray are rested.

 

We could see Gomes and Mapps finally getting a chance to say farewell.
DeeKnee is a must. Get an injury time penalty and there's nobody better. A good start to the season get the three points and sit happily on top of the league.

 

Btw is this on the Hornets hive? I would like to know the quality of the service before I dish out my £140. That's like £320 - the odd tenner, less than the proper fans pay.

 

No, but the Spurs friendly is next weekend.

 

Watford 5 - 6 Scunthorpe

(Suarez 20, 33, 35, 72, 86; Deeney OG 88, 89, 90+1, 90+2, 90+4, 90+7)

 

Of course he would, a good performance could squeeze another couple of million out of Everton.

 

Too early to be called a 'must win' game?

 

Joao Pedro ACL injury inbound

 

Anyone know how I can watch this one? A stream or something please

 

There won't be any stream.

 

That will be difficult to achieve in the ‘bright’ 30 seconds he’s allowed on the pitch.

 

Heard he's in quarantine anyway

 

Deeney missed penalty 90+8

 

Team news for today:-

Watson, Bedeau, Gilliead, Eisa, Butroid, Dales, Vincent, Rowe, Cordner, Hornshaw, Trialist.

 

Trialist gets everywhere, especially in preseason. Hope he finds the club for him.

 

Are you sure this is not the U23 team that played this morning HB1?

I was about to suggest that the fact the U23's played this morning would probably mean the team against Scunthorpe should be made up players who are likely to be in our 1st team squad.

Therefore if that were to be the case, we might actually get some idea of who Vlad is considering as his 1st team squad, and maybe whether Suarez, Estupidan (Spelling)?, and others are going to actually be staying with us.

As I would imagine he would not bother playing anyone who is definitely NOT going to be available to him this season, as surely that would be a waste of what little time we have left before the season starts.

 

If the last few years is anything to go by we might play 2 sides and give each 45 mins?

 

Hopefully this is the starting line up for Boro. That will throw Colin

 

Is this actually happening? Livescore app seems to list a ton of friendlies happening today and this one isn't on there?

 

Please tell me we really have a player called Butroid! Butroid the anal sex robot.

 

We don't but Scunthorpe do - unless you're outing yourself as an Iron?!

 

Can we sign him then? It would be pleasing to me.

 

Yeah that's Scunny's team LOL
GT's local club, isn't it?

 

Strong line-up

 

The game has kicked off and no team news. Brilliant.

 

I think he's got a twin?
