The moose has said that the undersoil heating has done its job and there is nothing outside the ground so there is no need to worry. http://www.watfordfc.com/page/NewsD...&utm_campaign=Feed: watford (Watford FC News) I expect there will be an inspection though to be sure. Its all part of the referees routine and list he has to tick of before the match.
There has been a big effort by Pompey fans to get their ground filled today in the hope of raising some money. Even Saints fans were offering to go along, and that is like expecting the lot from up the M1 to swell the numbers at the Vic. The game has been called off because of a frozen pitch.
HORNETS: Loach; Hodson, Mariappa, Nosworthy, Doyley; Murray, Eustace (c), Hogg, Kacaniklic; Deeney, Garner. Subs: Bond (GK), Yeates, Iwelumo, Dickinson, Buaben.

A win for Leeds United at Bristol City and adraw between Coventry City and Ipswich town will be the best results for Watford from the other teams near the bottom.
Watford attacking Vic Rd end 1st half. I think this could be a much harder game than some have predicted.
Brendon Rodgers - Swansea City Malky Mackay - Cardiff City Aidy Boothroyd - Northampton Town John Ward - Colchester United and now Neil Redfearn - Leeds United Are there more ex-Hornets being managers?
