Justin and Pete have a chat with head groundsman Scott Tingley whilst looking over the splendid playing surface at Vicarage Road. We find out about his introductions to sports surface preparation, football and Heurelho Gomes!!! We talk about why the pitch is dug up in May when it still looks great, not knowing the cost of a bag of fertiliser once but now researching silicon grass couplets, intercontinental awards, why dogs and robots aren't always compatible, bee hives and a variety of vegetables, the patterns on the pitch plus sunlight (artificial or otherwise) and the amazing wider grounds team at both the Vic and the training ground!!

Scott was great fun and clearly, along with his team, take massive pride in the job they do and the output of their work!!

The gruesome threesome come together with inadvertent good timing and discuss new players and how Derek Payne might pronounce them, friendlies, speedo's and other forfeits if we win the league, our favoured pie flavours and lots of Q&A's and assorted nonsense.

Justin, Carl & Pete start the season off with the exciting launch of the kit that has been oddly received, primarily because of the colour of the sponsor logo. Pete has had a chat with the founder of MrQ and tries to give their perspective and we discuss how many previous sponsors deviated from our core colours (it's more than we remembered) and then we talk about the Dominican Republic and we have the attention span of a goldfish!

`The gruesome threesome come together to discuss the first bit of the transfer window and what might come next before moving onto more questions some as inappropriate as ever and Carl turns out not to like protesters so much we think he might start protesting (and then he can dislike himself as much s we already do)! A squabble ensues when challenged to come up with a particular Watford eleven and Pete is accused of being technically right for a change. Trevor How gets a lot of mentions and Wendover leaves us speechless with a question that only Carl attempts to answer - thus digging himself into an ever deeper hole!!

When does the season start!?
