[Albion] Ajax - Amsterdam

[HCxUK]

Anyone have a rough inkling as to when tickets will go on sale for Ajax away?

I'm probably being ridiculous, but am sitting on 297 points and am slightly worried about getting a ticket. I missed Wolves, and for a variety of reasons I'm not able to make any away games until Marseille so won't be able to add to my points until then (assuming everyone will add the 10 points from AEK at home)...

Back in the 1980s it wasn't possible to walk more than 10 metres through the RLD without some guy offering you cocaine. Nowadays I've gone entire afternoons without being offered anything. Although it could also just be that my greying hair marks me out as "not a customer"... (I wasn't a customer in the '80s either, but still...)

How long have you got to hang about and what does he look like? Asking for a friend.

Wow 14 hours in one day roundtrip in a coach with a bunch of stinking mostly obese men farting every 5 minutes. That is genuine torture.

Not much different to Newcastle away on the coach

Seagull Travel are struggling according to their facebook post. Marseille definitely not doable and does appear to be Eurostar slits available fir buses for Ajax either.

Yes, just seen that. Looking at Ferry options with a stay now ... I don't think it's going to happen!

The pre-registration for Marseille finished today, so would expect tickets to go on sale either later this week or the start of next week. So if this was followed for Ajax away then I would expect tickets to go on sale just after the Marseille game.

All guesswork as given the tickets have to be collected in the city, this means that there is no pressure to release early to post out.

They’ve cleared those types of people from the area which is no bad thing as a friend of mine says the stuff was awful.

I thought their coach travel to Gatwick thing was a bit of a joke. Who’s going to bother with that ?!

Didn’t think it was a joke, but it is a bit sort of…erm…limp

I can’t believe the club’s official supporter travel company haven’t managed to put on a package to either Amsterdam and Marseille.

A good friend of mine is Chelsea STH. He’s been to loads of European away matches (not this season !) - he always books it through the clubs travel company. They typically fly with Thomas Cook and fly home about 4-5 hours after full time in the early hours. Transfers to/from grounds all sorted. I really thought this would be an option for those who wanted it.

Anyone in an area of Sussex not served by railway, we do have a lot of villages? And the sort of people who go everywhere on the coach if it's an option.

Our away support varies, the train/beers mob are very different to those who get the coach every week.

But then it’d be doing a tour of remote Sussex villages , how long will that take ? And if everyone has different flights what time does it aim to get there ?

Seems unnecessary

Wonder where the transfers are from. Chelsea or Fulham .....which means another transfer for those poor Chelsea fans

Well that is why they've made enquiries rather than just gone gung ho and arranged it

I think in their defence it's just almost impossible to put it on at a reasonable cost at such short notice.

Amsterdam will be an amazing trip. From Cyprus the only away game I'm likely to be able to get to, because it's easy on flights, is Athens. I've been told the new AEK stadium has a brilliant atmosphere.

Getting the Stena Line myself from Harwich, overnight ferry is pretty reasonable for foot passengers.

Taking this one in myself on the Friday night, about 45 mins from Amsterdam Central on the train.

If you're planning on walking to Telstar's ground from the nearest station, Driehuis, there's a very nice pub with decent beer at almost exactly the halfway point: Café Middeloo https://www.facebook.com/cafemiddeloo
