    Plenty of sunshine at Vicarage Road as the players warm-up.

    More scarves and hats than shorts though in the crowd, there's a chilly wind.

    Yet another nervy day of football in store for Swansea this afternoon at Vicarage Road.

    They travel to mid-table Watford in search of a vital three points in the fight against relegation.

    Watford are plodding along nicely, but manager Walter Mazzarri will be looking over his shoulder. 

    The Hornets owners don't settle for mediocracy.

    Plenty to keep us occupied then on this bank holiday weekend. Enjoy!
