Massive following at Watford

Pompey will travel to Watford at the weekend with what is 'probably' our biggest away following for sometime?

Having sold out of the original allocation of tickets an extra 400 were requested and these soon sold out too, so we will have a Blue Army of 1700 at Vicarage Road.

On average we have around 300-600 travelling regularly to most away games, remember this is on average, and that amount makes a hell of a racket!

Just image what 1700 will do at Vicarage Road this weekend in Michael Appleton's first game in charge of Pompey, well his first game in charge as a 1st team manager (on a permanent basis)...

Expectation levels will be high, but with the help of this massive following maybe, just maybe our away day blues can come to an end with a rare win on our travels found?

Watford will be a tough nut to crack but this, when you look at the fixtures on paper anyway, is one that we can look at with some optimism of winning. I think that we should most certainly be looking to come away undefeated anyway as a point is the minimum (dare I say it) we should 'almost' expect.

I cannot wait for this game, in many ways it is a shame that Appy's first game is away from Fratton but at the same time is will give us some early indication as to what his plans are, performance, set-up and style wise, away from Fratton.

Bring on The Hornets, Pompey are coming to town and we will make a hell of a noise...
