The boys are back in town

It'll be a nostalgic trip back to Watford for Albion duo Paul Robinson and Kevin Phillips tomorrow.

Both players started their professional careers at Vicarage Road, with Robinson signing terms in 1996, just under a year before Phillips earned himself a career-defining move to Sunderland.

The two are good mates after being reunited at The Hawthorns - so much so that they both dyed their hair blond following a barbecue earlier this season.

Although Robinson reckons perhaps they are now getting a little too close..

Robbo explained: "I didn't know Kev too well then but we're getting to know each other too much now, like rubbing each other's heads (after we score).

"It's even more worrying, especially when our wives turn around during the game and see both our sons doing the same thing when we scored.

"It's all a bit of a concern."

Quite.

Still, Watford boss Ady Boothroyd might well be worried.

He's just won the Manager of the Month award for October. And we all know what that means...

D Johnson:

Just hope other habits of Mr Robinson's don't catch on with his son . . . . like smashing Mr Phillips son in the jaw with his elbow
