    Newcastle v Watford.

    The filthy rich Arabic Geordies take on tiny Watford in the first of a relegation trilogy for CR70. His team face Burnley and Norwich next week. It couldn't get any bigger at the bottom of the table for us.

    Eddie Hoe has only splashed some of the blood soaked cash on Trippier and Wood so far, as they try to buy their way out of relegation. So, maybe we are playing them at a "good" time. Watford have lost 12,000 in a row and well, the next three games are make or break. We also haven't kept a clean sheet in 13,000 games.

    From - https://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/s...players-return-injury-newcastle-united-match/

    "Watford have confirmed the return of goalkeeper Ben Foster after a groin injury, while Emmanuel Dennis, Kiko Femenia and Christian Kabasele will all undergo late fitness tests ahead of this weekend’s match against Newcastle United."

    The famous AFCON four (Plus Sarr) are out, but the new signings are supposedly ready. It'll be interesting to see how the Tinkerman tries to win this one.

    ¡¡COYH <wizard> COYH <magic> COYH :1980_boogie_down:!!

    Try to enjoy the game.

    New signings Kamara, Samir and Kayembe have all trained this week and are in contention for our trip to St. James' Park!

    If anyone can guess the line up, I'll be impressed!

    Mine:

    --------------Foster---------
    JN----Sierralta----Samir-----HK
    -------Kucka----Sissoko--------
    JP---------Clevs-------Dennis
    --------------King----------

    I want to put Kayembe in for Kucka, but not too sure on that one!

    Close enough I think, maybe Kiko at right back if fit and maybe Cathcart alongside Samir depends on combinations tried in traiknikng

    This is one of our problems, namely that nobody can guess the line up !

    The view from the back of the away stand to the nearest goal is as far as from the back of the Rookery to the Vic End goal. It's further than we can actually see to clearly understand what we're looking at*. Trust me, I did my dissertation on this stuff!
    *clarification: when looking at the home end goal from the away end.
