WE have some exclusive photographs of the Hornets returning to training at London Colney.

Our Club Photographer was on hand yesterday to capture the Golden Boys starting their first full week of pre-season training.

The squad returned to work last Wednesday (30 June) for a series of medical tests, before they got out on the pitches with a light session last Thursday afternoon.
