    When I hear commentators mentioning The Hawthorns as being an intimidating atmosphere, are they taking the piss?
    My suggestion is, everyone turns out an hour and a half earlier on the drink on Saturday and let Watford know what its all about come 15:00

    Well it looks like some good weather on the way. So for those who take a beer before the match, a good reason to have another!

    Just a game to enjoy I'd say. No pressure on the lads, and none on us.

    Just been on the website looking at tickets and it's only showing availability in 3 sections of the Premier Concourse, is the rest really sold out already?

    Whoever is responsible for releasing ticket sales at the club needs to find another job, they release them block by block for the PC, because they dont want to have to pay for extra stewards and catering staff, penny pinching small minded corner shop mentality

    about 100 tickets left ! unbelievable that just been on the SAFC seating guide all seats left in the concourse. Watford might bring 20-30 up as they cannot make the top 6 now.

    Makes perfect sense to do it that way. People just love to moan - even when things around the club are positive

    Do you mean so people cant get the seats where they want to sit that will remain empty? Perfect sense :)

    Follow your strapline

    No, I mean as you have alluded to, selling tickets in blocks limits the stewarding costs, not to mention makes the stadium look fuller.

    So why does it make perfect sense, not allowing supporters the seats that they want?
