| 5 Things About Watford 10:36 - Aug 17 with 2215 views | SaintNick | 1. The trains were once again screwed from Southampton, meaning that the 7.55am was cancelled and everyone had to pile on the 8.26, hundreds of Saints fans and loads of passengers from cruise ships with loads of luggage, however those at Eastleigh had the train from Pompey which was apparently 10 empty coaches and should have linked with the 7.55, total chaos. 2. How can some pubs charge £4 a pint, yet in London you won't get one under £8 profiteering at its finest 3. In the first half there were people around me some of them with the latest Saints shirts on, sat down reading their phones, not just for a minute or so, but for long periods, why bother coming if you are going to do that. 4. Pat From Poole is considering changing his name to Pat Southampton Football Club Westwood ( Not Pat's real surname) as one of the biggest property owners on Sandbanks he can afford it. 5. The 2nd kit is truly awful, I saw pockets of people wearing it, but most who like a replica shirt had either the first or 3rd shirt on |  |

I didnt choose the pubs, looking at my online banking I paid £7.90 for a pint of Estrella Gallicia in the Royal George next to Euston Station, £5.65 for a pint of Heineken in the Oddfellows by Watfords ground and then on the way home £8.10 for a pint of Estrella Damm in the Old Fire Station next to Waterloo station |  |

I still have flashbacks of walking out of Vicarage Rd after a 7-1 walloping against Third Div Watford in a League Cup game after we had won the first leg 4-0 |  | |  |

| 5 Things About Watford on 22:16 - Aug 17 with 1430 views | hedgeend61 | Was it just our away end not selling beer inside the ground, or the whole stadium? Nobody will buy that away kit with stolen stolen money, even with half a brain. Unless you have a family death during the game, there is no need to use a mobile phone when the game is on. How far is the station from the ground. I had a lift, was one of the last out of the ground as I had to get my flag, walked back to the car for 15 min, drove through traffic past the station and they were still walking back, 2 miles?

Just the away end I think Even from China at £13 a shot its a rip off I agree i dont usually take my mobile to games why tap away on your mobile during a game let someone who wants to actually watch the game have the ticket, it should just be for the odd text or message etc. The walk to Watford Junction is a bit shorter than you think just got it up on google maps about 1.25 miles so a 25 minute walk at average pace |  |

The number of Arsenal shirts in the centre of Watford town centre p!ssed me off, especially when I saw a few after the game, when Arsenal were actually playing. Arsenal "fans" that can't even be bothered to sit in front of a TV to watch them. They would rather p!ss off the Watford and Saints fans as if to say "I support the PL champions" right in the centre of a football teams town that is playing at home. What do they want, a big well done on choosing the best team in England right now? What tw@ts And on top of that, being sat next to the home end, a Watford fan kept holding up his phone with a Middlesbrough badge displayed on it. [Post edited 17 Aug 23:10]
