AIDY BOOTHROYD walks over burning coals — in a bid to hot-foot it up the Premiership.
His Watford side are 19th in the table after failing to set the top flight alight.
So Boothroyd arranged Wednesday’s flaming crazy stunt to keep his team on their toes — and raise cash for Watford Peace Hospice.
The Hornets boss, whose side visit Manchester City on Monday, was the first to feel the heat.
Boothroyd said: “One or two of the players’ hearts were probably going but there were no injuries.”
Skipper Gavin Mahon added: “I remember the days when players used to go on golf days to build team spirit — but the gaffer’s a bit different.”
