Grays picture special

Preparations are firmly under way for the 2009/10 season with the 2-1 victory at Grays Athletic - and whufc.com has an exclusive photo gallery.

Goals from Zavon Hines and Cristian Montano ensured the winning start to the summer for Gianfranco Zola's men - who were without established first-teamers Robert Green, Matthew Upson, James Tomkins, Mark Noble, Valon Behrami, Luis Boa Morte, Scott Parker, Carlton Cole and Dean Ashton, as well as new recruit Luis Jimenez.

That meant a chance for some of the club's talented youngsters to shine alongside the likes of fit-again Danny Gabbidon, James Collins, Jack Collison and Kieron Dyer. Click here to see all the key performers from Sunday's friendly.
