Watford shelled out £2,000 to pay for taxis that rescued a group of supporters who found themselves stranded while making the long trip to Newcastle for Saturday's Premier League meeting between the two sides.
Around 30 fans got stuck at the motorway services in Leicestershire when one of the official supporters' coaches broke down on the hard shoulder, roughly 100 miles into their 270-mile voyage to St James' Park.
However, the Hornets responded by laying on emergency minibus taxis for the group, who eventually made it to the stadium in plenty of time to watch their side rack up an impressive 3-0 win.
