Apart from 'Dam Square' - is there a specific place us Brighton fans are heading?

Some will quickly realise that DAM Square too early will be just another square. Some are heading out on the 13/17 tram line and heading to a few bars / eateries along the Raadhuisstraat.

Agreed about dam Square. I have been giving a few recommendations for those that want to stay central - the Grasshopper pub (for day of the game) and Molly Malones Irish bar for the Wednesday night.

Ajax’s football stadium?

For those making the trip, a reminder (or if you’ve not already heard this) that hotel prices have gone down. If you are able to cancel (for free) and re-book, it’s worth looking at what you’d save.

Has anyone successfully managed to get home end tickets? Asking for a a friend obviously.

This is a great tip. Just knocked £130 off my hotel booking and got a better room. Thank you!

Thank you for the heads up, it's something I hadn't considered. I had originally booked a twin room for two nights in the Flower market area through booking.com with free cancellation up to 24 hrs before arrival.

I've just booked exactly the same room deal for £70 less, once again through booking.com

Grasshopper is decent

If there’s a big queue, we’ll have to show some patience.

Ajax have a league game tonight (Thurs 7pm) at home to Volendam.
My initial thought was that it was generous of the Dutch League to bring forward their weekend game to give them some recovery time.
Then I spotted that they have another league game on Sunday when they entertain Heerenveen.

Hopefully they'll be knackered and also pick up a couple of injuries before next Thursday.

My hotel is fully booked. Out of interest, and excuse my ignorance, why have prices gone down?

Ajax have just gone 1-0 ahead after 57 mins against Volendam with a goal by Steve Bergwijn.

Chuba Akpom makes it 2-0 to Ajax in the 92nd min.

Chuba Akpom makes it 2-0 to Ajax in the 92nd min.

And now it is full time. Ajax are out of the relegation zone whilst their opponents, Volendam, are in it.
Ajax hadn't won in ten matches before today but that streak is over.
Now they will focus on Heerenveen at home on the Sunday, Ajax's last match before they play us in Amsterdam.

George Cox was in the Volendam side.

It was something to do with the abandonment of the Feyenoord game a week or two back, I believe, which meant a last-minute rejigging of fixtures. I can’t be bothered looking it up but I read somewhere that tonight’s opponents were very unhappy about being unwitting victims of the Ajax fans' violence.
