OFFICIAL: Watford is ALL TICKET

[On the Left Wing]

Following the confusion of yesterday afternoon I emailed a mate who used to play for Watford.

This is the exchange of emails:

and now there are rumours that it is pay on the gate after all .... can you check it out?

 

[CHAPPERS]

Why doesn't somebody phone the club and get a definitive answer?

 

[Wilka]

I have phoned this morning and it IS all ticket

You can still order them them over the phone and pick them up at the ground though

 

[Hove&Albion F.C]

when i spoke to them yesterday in the shop they said that watford had changed their mind about 5 times and that they'd now decided you could pay on the day. Surely they havent changed their mind again?! this is a joke!

I can see this ending up in a right mess. The Brighton ticket office have been telling supporters that you can pay on the day after being told by Watford this is the case.

There are bound to be fans who will now turn up without tickets. What sort of welcome are they going to get from the met police?

 

[Wilts]

In that email that Dwayne got today that I posted, he got a reply from the same bloke (Martin Hughes) who confirmed that it is definitely all ticket.

I posted this yesterday Via 'Ask The Club'

just rang watford who said its all ticket to brighton fans .. but even the bird on the phone had to ask questions to colleagues so basically they havent a clue

 

[Willow]

What a shambles. Anyone would think Watford didn't need the money...

 

[Caveman]

Not all ticket

 

[BlueWhiteStripes]

Our Ticket Office selling over phone till 3.00pm (can collect at Watford) then have to buy thru' Watford ticket office. It is all ticket.Police decision.

I'm sure the Met Police couldn't give a sh*t, but the Hertfordshire Police might have a few concerns...
