I didn't realise that was where Go Ahead Eagles were based. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could walk/short ferry to the North Tyneside ferry terminal, DFDS overnight to Amsterdam, 2hr40 train to Deventer. Looks a piece of piss. 90 mins on the train to amsterdam bud 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 Right…..it’s one thing to take an interest in the draw (that’s acceptable), but can we all agree now we won’t start any travel routes or accommodation chat for Bergen or Deventer until we’ve beaten Valur? It’s all starting to feel a bit Connah’s Quay/Belgrade. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ric Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 1 minute ago, Buddie Holly said: it could be rather confusing if there’s any trouble ”come ahead go ahead” I don't know why I did this, but I wanted to know what the literal Dutch translation of their name was.. So there's that. I don't know if that's true, every time I tried to speak Dutch to people they took the piss. A very sarcastic lot the Dutch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 And continuing a theme absolutely no c**t is interested in, translating Valur from Icelandic to English google tells me it's gyrfalcon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has been removed now but I'm pretty sure it was the Solidsport channel: https://youtube.com/@solidsport-official?si=J_Bwn20Eat8SFOrG Fingers crossed the game will appear there. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norrie82 Posted July 22 Share Posted July 22 4 hours ago, djchapsticks said: No thank you. As we've discussed before at length, I started attending home and away every week in 1994 at 10 and did so for about 20 years. I probably missed less than a dozen games in that time during the absolute worst spell in the club's entire history and came back for more. That doesn't make me more or less of a supporter than anyone else, but I feel it certainly doesn't automatically entitle folk who go to every game during these very good times, a ticket over myself who nowadays has to pick and choose on both a financial and moreso a timing basis and as a result, only makes around 7-8 away games a season now. Though I am paying for two season tickets and two away tickets for my part now. I've stuck the hours in over the years and introduced one the next generation to the club when she could easily have been heading to Parkhead on the weekly with her dad, given she also has a seat reserved there that she has no interest in using. I would feel not a shred of guilt about securing a ticket over anyone who was in Dingwall twice last season, nor should they feel any guilt over getting one ahead of me. It is what it is. Fair enough respect your opinion mate I just felt sorry hearing that some fans had not managed to get a ticket and how much it meant to them. It’s just my opinion that’s all 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Patterson Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 Go Ahead Eagles sounds like a great trip, if it's them. One word of caution, the Dutch police place all European games as high risk - it's the reason we only got 1,300 tickets for the AZ game a couple of years back despite asking for significantly more (the stadium was 1/3 empty) - and AZ willing to give more. So you may only receive around 500 for Deventer. There's one added bonus and I know this is waay getting ahead of ourselves here, but if it is Go Ahead Eagles and you're able to get past them, St Mirren will be seeded in the Playoff Round and avoid the likes of Chelsea, Fiorentina, Real Betis and Copenhagen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree house tam Posted July 23 Share Posted July 23 It's really easy to get ahead of yourselves lads, talk of any other opponents apart from Valur is folly. I bet the Albanians thought they were in the driving seat after their first leg..... You boys are like that before a balls kicked. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is St.Mirren we're talking about here. I'm already mentally preparing myself for the absolute piss taking from the rest of P&B if we do f**k it up against Valur. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
