Don't know what I've done to deserve a place on the bench! I'll be with Danny Rose and Troy Deeney trying the local pies.
Sunderland fans forum -Ready to Go.net-they have a thread on it plus the Watford FC website which says 115 left out of 1,955 allocation
Hmmm… found that thread. Interesting, thanks. Really surprised we’ve taken that size of allocation. I had half an eye on sales as I was waiting until they went on general sale and I’m pretty sure it’s only those 3 blocks we’ve opened for sales. But presumably that Sunderland poster has solid info.
@SkylaRose I can tell what a great squad you have at your disposal, from the big names that haven’t even made the bench. Are they injured, or have they been foisted on you even though they don’t fit your system?
Thinking on - maybe the Sunderland guy has estimated a normal allocation and also maybe our 115 left is from a reduced allocation. A few of us were going to go as we normally do but due to family reasons we are not. I may have been a bit bullish on us taking nearly 2,000 tickets when those 3 blocks hold <1,000 so maybe its around 900.
As a left footed striker this move to right back will certainly be challenging, but I promise to show the sort of commitment and effort that Watford fans have come to expect from their players. Zero.
I suspect playing you out of position is just @SkylaRose making a point to Pozzo about poor recruitment.
Delighted to be selected. You clearly have an eye for hidden talent. However I have absolutely no left foot. Would you mind if I swapped to the right or ideally CB ? I am the Craig Cathcart of WFCForums. All aboard HMSPTI.
I AM left footed however I don't have any shin pads. Nor do I have any socks,shorts,shirts or boots come to that. I do have six pairs of Babolat tennis shoes with three more arriving on Friday and four Aero Pro Team sticks. Oh and a picture of me in Watford kit,aged 6. Does this help?
I would never be worthy to manage such a side full of amazing talent. However, I can recomend a very well know astute coach, years of experience and once played for the biggest club in the world. So, without futher a do... Please welcome your head coach, the Wally with the Brolly: Steve McLaren.
Bad news for Sunderland who do actually have something riding on this... Gavin Ward is refereeing. The worst of a pretty bad bunch.
They aren’t impressed either . Mind you doubt we will get much based on the obvious handball we didn’t get last week .
Failed magician Gino, we eventually got to see what the other hand was doing as the con hand was seen to be empty.
It's much better here, Papa Pozzo knows how to look after us properly. The food and weather are much better too. I feel sorry for the forum members left in Watford.
5-0 to the Black Cats. We will surrender at the KO. Onto the Stoke game and it will be interesting to see what the Watford Club officials will do to keep any disturbances down. Playing the music loudly as soon as possible when the final whistle goes is a tactic of a totally 5hit club. My concern is that there will hardly any playing staff changes during the summer, but that is for another day. Enjoy the North East.
You were right to be surprised-i was wrong-under 700 fans-good on them https://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/sport/23483088.sunderland-think-attendance-45-000-watford/
No probably no younger players in the team ? https://www.watfordobserver.co.uk/s...pitch-watfords-young-players/#comments-anchor
Might as well throw in Amass and Blake so they can farewell the supporters before they leave in the summer.
There is a sliding scale of compensation that reflects how many first team games youngsters have played. It's a bit ambiguous but think the compensation increases per ten games played. If that's wrong and it also goes up per game, might as well play them both these last two games and get a few extra thousand on whatever derisory fee a big club will have to pay to take our two hottest prospects.
