Prague Red 1 Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 Bit of a public service request this which I will remove after somebody hopefully answers. Today is my annual trip to the gate due to my exile in Prague. Bringing my boys to indoctrinate them into the true and righteous path of City fandom. Would help a lot of be able to grab a few autographs / selfies with the players on their way into the stadium this afternoon. Can anyone recommend the best time to try and do this? Much appreciated.

Don’t know for definite however my boys mascot soon and his “meet the players” slot is 1:30. That says to me the team will arrive from around half twelve at the latest. Hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhistleHappy Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 fao .. @Matt Parsons BCFCSLO … Hi Matt, seasons greetings to you.. Any chance you can 'pull a few strings' to make Prague Red 1's visit to the Gate this year a bit special for him and his lads? It's a long way to come, first AG visit for the boys …. & it is Christmas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey thanks Whistle - would of course be awesome but its enough to get the 3 of them to the Gate and not just on the other end of the BCTV's link. @Silvio Dante thanks for info. Will get there early, take our chances and see what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackofromSanJavier Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 Hope the lads have a great day. I trust that their Polish team is as equally sensible as following the City and that they're not glory hunting with one of the big boys! All together now……….

Dollymarie Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 Get there about 12:00 and you should be fine. They arrive in dribs and drabs mind, so be patient. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poland - Czech - pretty much the same thing. No problems with my boys supporting Slavia Prague and City. Challenge as all father's know is keeping them away from the Premier League teams. City TV really helps because we can at least watch most games. Anyway thanks for all the answers - see you at the gate and COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judda Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 Alternatively they normally leave about 30 mins to an hour after the game.... by the door marked media I think? I remember watching a game at Sparta Prague with a girlfriend once. Cracking day out... although I'm not sure she had that in mind when I said we were going for a weekend away...

It’s a while ago now, but getting autographs before game was a bit a bit more hassle than afterwards.....and afterwards a bit quieter too???

So they arrive in little boats along the stream behind the West Stand then?

Went to a sparta Prague Europa league game v feyenoord a few years back. Managed to inadvertently get caught up in a feyenoord Riot after they lost and decided to take out their anger on the town centre, not the nicest experience...

Those Eastern European borders mean nothing to me…….. Got arrested 'accidentally' stumbling across an unmanned forest crossing point between Poland and Kaliningrad! It was unmanned until blokes with guns suddenly appeared! I only missed one day from school, but it must have been the day they did geography!
