Residents Caught Out By Match Changes (from Watford Observer)

Having lived in West Watford up until 3 years ago and fought the council over plans to introduce match day parking on our street, I have nothing but sympathy for the residents caught out by this. There is nothing that can be done further if residents have made the effort to get fixture lists and visitor permits, if the clubs then go and change fixtures without much warning.

It’s unfair for the council to say this is the resident’s responsibility I feel the responsibility really rests with the club, Saracens in this case, and residents should get together and pursue the club for reimbursement. People who do not follow rugby or football should not be expected to check if any matches have changed.

I feel a letter to the Watford Observer coming on!
