Apparently they had to remove a few thousand seats due to Elton Johns fat arse.

Well hopefully it will be a good atmosphere all the same. I find when we take 4000 or whatever the noise levels are no better, in fact they can be worse because the "singers" are spread around and the atmosphere suffers.

Been to Vicarage Road on numerous occasions and never seen us win there.

Don't worry folks I'm giving it a miss this year.

I've been twice and seen us lose both times. I have a ticket for the game maybe i should give it a miss.

Interesting that since we last visited the capacity has increased from 17,477 to 20,877 with the opening of the Sir Elton John stand last December. If you look at the stadium plan on the Watford website the last section of the Sir Elton stand (i.e. the section nearest the 2,000 capacity away fans section in the Vicarage Road stand) is colour coded the same as the away section and Watford fans cannot buy tickets here. So is this section potentially available for Town fans or do they want to keep it empty?

I had posted a few weeks ago in a matchday thread whilst watching soccer Saturday that Vicarage Road looked deserted behind Bianca Westwood as she reported on the game. Them keeping a section empty could be true Verulam.

Unlike Middlesbrough whose form over the last 6 is the same as ours and who we might get something from on Saturday, Watford are really in form right now.

I'm not confident.
