    Thinking about Saracens who, despite ground sharing with us, play home games at Wembley occasionally, a hypothetical idea came to mind.

    If Watford were to establish themselves in the Premiership, or go on a cup run, and ended up in Europe, would you watch The 'Orns if they played a home game against large european opposition at, for example, The Emirates?

    Would you approve of the idea? Would you attend?

    If playing a game at a larger ground meant maximising revenue then personally I would be all for the idea. Whilst playing at The Vic with Saracens here it may also benefit us by playing on a better surface. However, I would be completely against playing a game at Wembley.

    Of course this is completely hypothetical, but a precedent has been set in the past by Arsenal who played European fixtures at Wembley.

    As folkestone orn said above - A 'home game' is a 'home game' for a reason. They shouldn't be played anywhere else. Always at The Vic whether it be the Blue Square Premier, The Championship, or the Champions League please.

    I don't think that will ever be a worry!

    Would be good to be the home team at the Emirates, just to see if we could be even quieter than Arsenal fans.

    No way, I'd rather listen to a 'best of Rihanna' montage on loop for the rest of my life.

    The Vic is our home.
