Watford have refreshed their home match ticket buying policy for the new season.

After feedback from fans and analysis of sales patterns, the club have decided to include cup match purchases in eligible Fan ID buying history.

Only purchases in the 2014-15 and 2015-16 seasons are included to maintain workable Fan ID numbers in each group.

Home priority sales group A features 2,101 fans, who are not current season ticket holders, with 15 or more home ticket purchases since July 2014.

Group B features 2,653 fans, who are not season ticket holders, with at least six but less than 15 home match ticket purchases since July 2014.  

Group C has 25,647 fans, who are not season ticket holders, who have at least one but less than six home ticket purchases since July 2014. 

Tickets for Watford's first three home games, against Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester United, will go on sale online to home group A buyers from noon on Friday. 

Home group B buyers will be able to purchase tickets from Monday at noon while group C are able to buy them from midday on Wednesday.
