Hi Football Fans,
Longer and longer I was hoping to watch a game in England. I do not like to go to games in the Premier League so I was wondering where I could go. I am living in the Netherlands and I am working for a company with its HQ in your area. For a training of my work I was often in the neighbourhood, but never on a home game date. Tuesday 21st of March I noticed you guys having a home game against Port Vale. This day I am again for work in an hotel 15 minutes of your stadium.
I want to go and watch that game. But I never visited an English game before, is there a specific side where do the fans are sitting/standing who are singing and chanting etc? Do I have to hurry with buying tickets online? Is the traffic okay enough for a cab/taxi/uber to the stadium, or do I need to be early?
...absolutely correct. I'm of that age and in possession of a flask of tea. You'll notice, Michael , that the football pitch is in a very bad condition. That's because all the old people ran on to the pitch after our magnificent semi-final cup win and we destroyed it . It was the old people in block 21 !How old are you ? The oldies tend to sit around Block 21 - bring a tartan rug and a flask of tea :emoji_older_man:
I am 24 years old so I do not consider myself as an oldie.How old are you ? The oldies tend to sit around Block 21 - bring a tartan rug and a flask of tea :emoji_older_man:
Thanks!...then sit at the other end of the stand, nearest the train station. You'll pass a dreadful box outside with "WASPS" written on it. You need to sit at that end of the ground.
Thanks, that is the block just next to the block for away fans? Will the price be different online or at the gate?If you go to the Cov website you can set up an account and buy / print your ticket off, if you want the noisiest fans you want block 15 towards the top near the scoreboard. A lot of fans go into the casino for a drink before the game

Micheal, the pitch is not the only thing in dreadful condition, the club is too....absolutely correct. I'm of that age and in possession of a flask of tea.

Don't take this as a fair example of us. We're at one of our lowest points ever so our support is disheartened at the moment and the atmosphere can be quite negative.
Haha I will take a note of that. Maybe a casino is not the best thing to do in advance.Don't go in that Casino for a drink, cost me nearly £15 for 3 pints, and they lasted only 7mins!
P.S We don't sell pies either, you can spit at a Wasps crest for that
Thanks for the headsup, I am fan of Roda JC we relegated four seasons ago the first time in history and got back the season after that. We are now two consecutive seasons in the danger zone. And three seasons before our relegation it was always around the relegation zone, so I think I have a little understanding of the kind of football I will see. At our club the players even refuse to fight for the points...Micheal, the pitch is not the only thing in dreadful condition, the club is too.
We are bottom winning just 5 games all season, but the good news is we are on our 4th manager this season and this one at least like playing football on the grass, something you Dutch know a thing or two about.
I wouldn't go with great expectations of seeing a great game, but at least we know we will have to win this game, well pretty much we have to win every game to stand a chance of not finishing bottom.
Enjoy the experience, it may make you need a few beers afterwards especially after seeing what our goalies and defence are like.
Stick with us and enjoy our promotion winning campaign next season
I am staying in Nailcote Hall.Where are you staying @MichaelNL ?
I am used to it, we are in a sort of similar situation. We played 5-7 years ago a couple places higher in subtop/middle of the league and we won three weeks ago our first home game in exactly a year, so times do change.Don't take this as a fair example of us. We're at one of our lowest points ever so our support is disheartened at the moment and the atmosphere can be quite negative.
Definitely easier than if it had been Sixfields.... oh hang on, no sorry, that wouldn't have been Nailcote, that would have been Turncote wouldn't it.Bit of a distance from Nailcote to the Ricoh but a taxi should make it easier!
Where are you staying @MichaelNL ?
Shhh I don't know if He's a giver or taker yet.OOOooooh.....someone's after a date :kiss:
OI!!!!!!! I'm only 31 I'll have you know! I just like the view!!How old are you ? The oldies tend to sit around Block 21 - bring a tartan rug and a flask of tea :emoji_older_man:
If I remember correctly, there is a £1 administration fee across all sales channels EXCEPT on the gate. Don't quote me on that though will need to double check!Thanks, that is the block just next to the block for away fans? Will the price be different online or at the gate?
The club have very helpfully' made it easy to choose where you sit by shutting downThanks, that is the block just next to the block for away fans? Will the price be different online or at the gate?
He's Dutch isn't he, so I'm guessing he'll just go with the flow.:emoji_heart_eyes:Shhh I don't know if He's a giver or taker yet.
OOOooooh.....someone's after a date :kiss:
