[Albion] Ajax Amsterdam

[Krafty]

I've created a thread on our future opponents, AFC Ajax, for discussion about the upcoming fixtures, travel information or anything else...

AFC Ajax
Fixtures
26/10/23 - Brighton & Hove Albion vs AFC Ajax (20:00 BST)
09/11/23 - AFC Ajax vs Brighton & Hove Albion (17:45 BST, 18:45 Local)

Brief Description
Amsterdamshe Football Club Ajax, is a Dutch professional football club that play in the Eredivisie. They are the most successful club in the Netherlands, with 36 league titles, and 20 KNVB cups. They have also won four Champions Leagues, one European Cup Winners' Cup, one Europa League and two Super Cups - and are known for producing some of the greatest ever players such as Johan Cruyff, with the stadium named after him.

Stadium
The Johan Cruyff Arena, which holds 55,865 and therefore an away capacity of around 2,800 considering the 5% allocation.

I've been waiting impatiently for weeks for someone to mention the Ajax match, tickets, travel etc. Well done.

[Albion] - Ajax - Amsterdam

There doesn’t seem to be a thread on the Ajax trip which I suspect will be the most popular for Brighton fans. Here is some info I’ve found out about the ground . The Dutch generally I’ve found to be welcoming and warm people and Amsterdam is a lovely vibrant city which is considered very...

[Albion] - Ajax experience?

I know this is probably not something that any of us know quite yet, but, based on our vast life experience, how do we think the Ajax away experience will differ from Marseille? In terms of buses/transport to the ground, being held back at the end, police treatment, atmosphere, etc etc. in fact...

[Albion] - Ajax Away - Wheelchair travel/tickets

This is possibly (actually it is) a bit niche, so I deliberately haven`t posted in the main Ajax thread. Are there any on here who are wheelchair users, or know of wheelchair users considering going to Ajax? I`m trying to plan as there are lots to consider logistically (accessible...

[Albion] - Amsterdam pubs

What pub is everyone going to? :ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO: Seriously, I thought there might be a proper fanzone set up somewhere. Not everyone's cuppa but a good control mechanism maybe. Seemingly nothing planned Dam square establishments in for a busy time

[Travel] - Amsterdam Travel Advice Please

I haven’t been abroad for a few years at this point, and looking at a cheapish 3 night getaway to Amsterdam. I’ve never been and have a list of tourist sights to see, but have several questions. We were thinking 8-11th October - is it better to buy a packaged hotel & flight via Expedia (or any...

Sorry, @The Wookiee , but that last one wasn’t about the game (though I realise it might have morphed into it after I last read it). It was about a general trip there at a different time.

Otherwise, good point well made.

They are at bottom-of-the-table Utrecht at lunchtime today. A relegation 6-pointer!

You’ve said many times how bad they are so why could do with injuries?

My confidence is a bit more fragile after 1 win in 7

 

[Van Cleef]

We need to start the game with plenty of vim or it could all be over in a flash. And ajax could clean up in a jif.

Hohoho I'm hilarious..

 

[dwayne]

Ajax rested a few today.

They used to have a big lad in defence but when he was out injured they always lost.
They certainty Mr Muscle at the back.

**** sigh****

 

[dwayne]

Wow. Losing to Utrecht and looking absolutely pathetic. Actually hoping they at least draw as that manager could get sacked before our game

 

[dwayne]

2-0 down heading for the worst losing streak in their history
