    Sun sets in the west/southwest so we won't get the sun in our eyes. Hope the wolfs get roasted and dont have the energy to sing.

    Our ultras will have taken the East by the end.

    Who in their right mind would pay 80 quid to watch Watford Wolves!?

    Top price tickets in 2016 were £60 so that's a hell of an increase in 3 years! Also concessions were only £10 lower so looks like £70 for a kid to sit in the top priced seats!

    In the FA Cup semi final? Anyone with an affiliation to Watford or Wolves with 80 quid to spare, I'd imagine

    33,000 tickets.

    Reckon we can sell that? I’d hope so.

    We didn't 3 years ago. Doubt we will this time.

    There was an article in the Evening Standard last night on how a non-Man City FA Cup winner could mess up the pre-season arrangements for Chelsea or Arsenal if they finished 6th, as they'd have to start their season on July 25th in the Europa League qualifiers, rather than at a nice shirt selling tournament in a football hotspot.

    Incorrect. The forum sage declared 2pm so that's what time I'll be in my seat expecting kick off. If they don't kick off at that time, I'll be down the dressing rooms with a strongly worded letter (PDF format).

    Watford v Wolves head-to-head record is pretty close:- P45 W 14 D 18 L13

    We've played them quite a few times in the FA Cup, but it doesn't seem to bring the best out of us.

    We lost 10-0 in 1912 in an FA Cup replay!! (how did we draw the first one??)

    We did have a giant killing in 1980 though, by winning 3-0 at Molineux. Blissett and Poskett scoring that day.

    Our last two matches in the FA Cup have seen us lose 4-1 at home on both occasions. I must have been to the games, but I cannot remember either of them!!

    Overall FA Cup record against Wolves is:- P7 W1 D2 L4 F7 A21

    If we make the cup final will the BBC refuse to televise it?

    Never seen that before.

    That's the closest we have to Elton doing us a song.

    Could we or he adapt it for us if we beat Wolves.

    Ooooooh Watford!

    This song was from Elton's 1978 album, A Single Man. The players and staff from the club sang on this song and another track on the album, called 'Big Dipper'. If you ever get your hands on a copy of the record (and it's a pretty good one), it actually has Watford Football Club credited under the list of featured musicians.

    I believe his brand new single, "We are going to **** on the Wolves" might be more appropriate ??

    Can't decide whether it's weirder that they weren't wearing shorts than if they were.

    They took one look at Pat Molloy's knobbly knees and thought better of it.

    It was also shown on the Big Match. They threw in some slow motion clips of us at home to Southend. Starts at 36.23, with footage from Vic Road on 38.27 & 39.22..

    40 years ago. The Big Match was great wasn't it. Brian Moore was a Gills fan but always unbiased in his summing up unlike todays numpties.

    Yes. I have it, inc the WFC credits. I have pretty much all of his other than the very recent. SEJ said that he thought it sold so well due to his health scare or something like that ?

    Fulham is first, before the semi, which is the best option for us.

    Durban should have been a ventriloquist.

    That hand is crying out for a glove puppet.
