So the news has been released. One ticket per season ticket holder and the sale in staged phases depending on loyalty points.
The significant thing is they can only be purchased through an online ticket website, not the club direct. This means a 'fee' added to the ticket, plus additional postage cost. Watford tickets can be purchased directly from the club, that says a lot........

Good luck everyone.........

This is what it says on Watford's website:-

Each ticket purchased will attract a postage & packing fee of £2.40 from Ticketmaster, who will handle the fulfilment of all orders placed.

Here's my dilemma:

For the past 2 seasons me and my younger brother have had STs and accumulated ~2000 points. My old man and I were season ticket holders for around 15 years prior to moving to the States for work 2 years ago.

It just so happens he is in the UK the weekend of the Semifinal. As things stand one of us will be unable to go which is pretty brutal!

That is unless there is a kind soul out there with the necessary points for phase 2 who is unable to go to the game and is willing to 'loan' me their client reference code and surname. Which are required to book seats together through the SEE ticket website.

Apologies for the sob story but as you can imagine we are all desperate to go! Please inbox me if you feel you can help and I would be more than happy to provide proof to show I'm not a massive shyster.

If you buy a membership by 5pm today who'll be able to buy in the 4th phase.
