Watford season ticket holders will be able to purchase more than 20 tickets for next summer’s Elton John concert at Vicarage Road.
The Hornets have this evening released details of ticketing arrangements for next summer’s event, which is to raise money for player transfers.
The club has relaxed their rules after the 2005 concert and anyone wanting to attend will be able to purchase up to 20 tickets when they go on sale on Monday, November 9.
But season ticket holders who want to buy more than 20 can do so by filling out a group form from today, which will then be processed when the ticket office opens on the first day of sale.
Season ticket holders will be able to purchase tickets from 8am on November 9 but only via the club’s website.
The following day will again be season ticket holders only but this time supporters will be able to secure their place by phone and online from 9am.
On Wednesday, the ‘remainder of the WFC database’ will be able to purchase their tickets online only and then the following day by phone and online, with the ticket office opening at 9am once more.
The club says non-season tickets holders who haven’t booked online before need to know their unique Fan ID number, as found on their Fan card or previous match tickets, before activating their account and suggest doing this before trying to purchase tickets for the event.
Tickets will then go on general sale on Friday, November 13 but will again be online only, before being available by phone on the following Monday.
Seats on the pitch directly in front of the stage and tickets for the Upper Rous will be £100, the rest of the pitch seating will be £75 and the Lower Rous, Vicarage Road and Rookery End will be £55.
Disabled supporters will be situated on raised platforms in front of the Lower Rous and should contact Joanne Simonds on 01923 496250 between Monday November 2 and Friday November 6 if they wish to attend.

I think we've established that you and I are of the same vintage retard.Unfortunately you have the mental age of a two year old and are a tool.Perhaps you should dig into your vast wealth and donate a million quid to the club instead of carping from the sidelines as per usual.

Oh ye old dippus stickus one......
Good try, I see what you did there but you have failed to grasp the thoughts of -
why do another concert again, why not just give us the money, or even earn interest on it like some other person did and save both our ears and pitch?
Could always have a sponsOred E.O arsekick for half time entertainment!

Being a lifelong true Watford and EJ fan, (but unfortunately not a season ticket holder), getting a decent ticket for this gig is unlikely. Surely an allocation of four per season ticket would have been more than enough for most people. Lets hope there is some process that will stop the spivs, but I doubt it.
Looks like it will be a ticket spivs field day. How long before tickets start appearing on ebay at 3 times the face value? At last watford season ticket holders(true fans) will get some pay back for supporting the club so I'm not complaining

More pig ignorant prejudice from vOr. You really are a low life... ageism, anti-semitism, people with disabilities. At one time you came close to amusing, please go away and play with your old mate Ashton, he needs something to do and someone who makes him feel intelligent...relati
vely speaking of course. The EJ concert was a great night. WFC should not expect to survive on handouts and bailouts. vOr presumably does live this way as it would be hard to imagine gainful employment. Nothing wrong with EJ giving his time and a lot of people a lot of pleasure. Talking about pleasure I would be interested to compare fans views of the style of play under Malky relative to...what did you say about Hoofroyd vOr?...the second best manager in out history was it? You really are embarassing.

Nothing excuses your disgusting prejudices vOr. Boothroyd is arrogant, unpleasant, spent more on the playing squad than anyone else in history and then made excuses about resources for his kick and run style. Remind me who took us to the brink of oblivion vOr, Hoof and your mate Ashton. So you know what was said behind closed doors do you? Pathetic. You were wrong about Ashton, as you were forced to concede, and we can all see your ludicrous salvage operation attempts for Hoofs non existent reputation. Most of all you are an extremely prejudiced individual. You are a really big person hiding behind your vOr label making comments referring to antisemitism, ageism, and those with learning and physical difficulties. Bet your parents are proud of you...not.

Why can't he just give us the money and save himself - and us - the mind numbing rattlings of an old timer that appeals to, well, old timers? (bile, E.O, bent red, cornut) to name a few!
Saves the pitch too boot.
Just a thought.
