I'm deliberately avoiding knowing how this match is going until I see SSN at 10. Only time I've been to the KC was in 05/06 - I still remember Ben Foster managing to slice the ball out of the ground from by the right hand touchline with his right foot - not bad for a left-footer! Three games without a win - we can't really afford it to be 4.
And they do the best Kebabs in the town. I always make sure to visit when I am back Blightyside. Extra large Doner with extra chilli sauce. Yummy. As for tonight game - this, Ladies and Gentlemen, is IT. And I can't wait. Lose and it's the dreaded play-offs. Where I fear we will fail.
Need 5 points tonight, I'd happily take 3 mind... Also...hats of to the legend...If selected, Lloyd Doyley will be making a 400th appearance in Watford colours
Just seen the pitch is being heavily watered. Think they are hoping that some of our shorter players will drown.
Tonight's team: Bond; Ekstrand, Hall, Briggs; Cassetti, Addi, Chalobah, Battocchio, Anya; Deeney, Vydra subs: Bonham (GK), Doyley, Pudil, Yeates, Buaben, Geijo, Forestieri The biggest game of the season and he drops Doyley....... Not sure who Addi is
Both Hull and Watford players are up and running. Luther Blissett alongside Jon Marks tonigh. Old player is 20-30 seconds ahead of the new version. Well it is here.
Hull Team: Stockdale; Bruce, Chester, Hobbs; Elmohamady, Faye, Koren, Boyd, Brady; Gedo, Simpson Subs: Jakupovic, Rosenior, Evans, Cairney, Fathi, Quinn, Proschwitz
Really hoped he would drop Briggs to the bench - but he's the proffesional so let us see - also amazed at Bauben coming onto the bench ahead of other options.
Looking at the two sides have to say Hull may turn out to be to strong for us tonight, we needed Doyley tonight for sure
