Opposition

A sixth-place finish in the National League during the previous campaign saw Boreham Wood qualify for the promotion play-offs. Despite having beaten Barnet in the quarter-finals, the Wood fell short against eventual winners Notts County.

Under manager Luke Garrard and assistant Lloyd Doyley, a legendary former Hornet, the duo will be hoping to use the friendly against Watford as a testing ground for their lofty ambitions ahead of the new season.

Been At Both - Lloyd Doyley

With 443 games to his name – ranking him fifth in the club’s all-time appearance table – Doyley is well and truly a fans’ favourite. Coming through the Academy, the right-back enjoyed many memorable moments as a Hornet, including scoring his first Watford goal in his 269th match against Queens Park Rangers.

Now assistant manager at Boreham Wood, Doyley has enjoyed a successful coaching spell with our opponents, just missing out on promotion to the Football League after defeat to Notts Country in the semi-finals of the National League play-offs.
