4000 if it’s the whole end, not sure we’d shift that many

Saturday 3pm KO with no TV coverage? We’d not be far off!

Old S and D at it again..
We took 6 thousand to Chelsea so why not?
However, you could be right. Not quite that ‘Glamorous’ but I reckon we might take about 3 thousand..

Page 5 of the guide for away fans on the Watford website shows the away end as some sections behind the goal

I think I might look into getting a hospitality ticket for this one, their Horizon lounge looks pretty decent for food and drinks and might be able to grab a good deal for a fixture like this. If I get into their hospitality lounge and have a night in London I won’t even need to pay for any extra food, I’ll just pig out at Vicarage Road, there’s loads to eat in there.
Let me in!

Away fans have been in the stand behind the goal for years.

Taking 2500 to WBA on a freezing midweek replay gives a bit of a clue to the likely demand, especially if it is a decent kickoff time.

Could be selected for international coverage which could move it away from a 3pm Sat kickoff though.

They’ll give us the whole end that holds 4000+ and if it stays Saturday 3pm we probably won’t be far of shifting the lot

We planned a bus for us mates and ended up with over 100+ on the list just from our own Group chats so going to run a couple of buses. Interest seems sky high

Away end at Watford is behind the goal now . On my last 2 visits there with Town in the 90's we were down the side though.

They get close to selling out their stadium but I can’t see us being a major attraction to them. We should be asking for our maximum allocation, we don’t want another WBA situation where we sold our allocation and played in a half empty stadium
