Watford FC will mark the sixth anniversary of Graham Taylor’s passing with the ‘Graham Taylor Matchday’ against Blackpool on Saturday January 14 (3pm KO).

The Sky Bet Championship clash against Michael Appleton’s Seasiders represents the nearest home matchday to the anniversary of the death of the Hornets’ greatest ever manager, in 2017.

Taylor - who led the club to five promotions, into Europe and to an FA Cup final during spells in charge between 1977 and 1987, as caretaker in 1996 and from 1997 to 2001 - left an everlasting legacy at Watford, and we will continue to pay tribute to his remarkable impact on both the club and the community.

Over the past few seasons, supporters have raised a scarf in GT’s honour as the players have entered the field before kick-off, and Watford are delighted to continue this tradition in 2023.

Supporters are invited to hold their scarves aloft before the Blackpool match commences, to pay tribute to GT and the fantastic work that continues in his name.

Ticket information for the Blackpool match, and for the following week’s visit of Rotherham United (Saturday January 21, 3pm KO) can be found HERE, with prices for adults starting at just £20.
