chalky Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Well it looks like Willem ii are also going to be relegated this season, sitting at the bottom of the table. I'm still really keen to go and watch them, especially after seeing this video on Youtube ... Whose been over before? Is there city flags at the game?

chalky Posted April 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 i am sorry but for holland that is not great compared to some of the things i have seen on youtube Fair enough, not claiming they are the best fans in the world and far from the best I have seen on youtube like yourself. However, there is a clear link between supporters of the 2 clubs, you only have to see the flags in the EE to know that - and the atmosphere is still a lot better than our own. You may think this one is a bit better... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For Gawd's sake, that's hardly difficult. Compared to years before, the Gate is like a morgue. How can you have atmosphere when fans can't stand up, and get stick from stewards and other fans for singing or shouting? These days it feels like you're at a tennis event or some crappy cricket match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dafarms Posted April 17, 2013 Report Share Posted April 17, 2013 Good friends of mine, been over there for the Den Haag game, one of the best games I have been to in years. They made us so welcome it was unbelievable. When Den Haag seen the City flags and started singing "Bristol W**kers", 3/4 of the ground, live on Dutch tv starting singing "Bristol City", to drown them out. Shivers went down my spine, unbelievable experience. Top, Top lads and "Lady". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chalky Posted April 18, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 Did Willem compete in the Champions League going back to the mid-late 90s? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willem_II_(football_club) According to this, yes. They finished 2nd in the 1st division in the 98-99 season, they were eliminated in the group stage the following season getting 2 points from 6 games! Must have been some good trips for the fans though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tall King Blox Posted April 18, 2013 Report Share Posted April 18, 2013 I think it's a fantastic idea, we could get ratarsed in Hamsterjam then jog on down and show solidarity to the guys that show us the same, it's a no brainer if you get my drift...!!!
