Don't know if anyone's started a thread on this but who's going?

I am and I'll be bringing my mum for her first game in nearly two years...

Wow, good to hear your mum is going to be there Daren. You still in the Northam, would be nice to come and say hello?

 

Oh, and yes, I'll be there. Well, subject to swine flu symptoms clearing up completely.

I can't a thread like this hasn't been started before! Great idea. Can you keep updating the OP with the list of names you have so we have a definitive place to look. It would be better if you could give peoples names (rather than "my Mum") and where they are sitting so that we can all introduce ourselves to to each other properly.

 

By the way, I hope to be going but as I am on crutches I need somebody to stand behind me to stop me toppling back down the concrete steps if things go awry. If any one wants to volunteer it would be really great.

Yes, me and my nipper.

 

Just a shame we don't have our usual seats, but really looking forward to a good atmosphere and hope that he give the new owner a really good reception....oh and hopefully we can welcome the new manager.

The last time I saw Ajax was in Barcelona in a pre season tournament 1974 the stadium was immense.

 

 

They played Barcelona and it was probably one of the best games I ever saw hope Saturday's game will be as memorable

Slight problem with the Barcelona/Saints thing perhaps?

I will be there. I am looking forward to it so much. I don`t really care about the football too much, it will just be great to be at SMS and celebrate (hopefully) a new era.

I think a lot of people have set their expectations a bit high results wise especially after last night. I just hope it doesnt put a lot of people off coming back!

Good to have a thread to practise trolling on I think. By the way, I think John down the road might be going with his nanny. She has grey hair and he has a slight squint. Say hello if you see them.

They sit next to me!! We always sent Nan out for the coffee/yorkie deal, (balti pie for her), and make her pay! She can afford it on her pension.

 

It doesn`t matter how much you practice, you will never have the "skills" of some of the trolls on here.

AJAX SHOW CITY EURO CLASS

 

Posted on: Thu 16 Jul 2009

Bristol City 0-4 Ajax

Adam Baker reports from Ashton Gate

Ajax showed their European class with a four-nil thumping of City at Ashton Gate tonight.

Luis Suarez, Urby Emanuelson, Albert Luque and Dennis Rommedahl all found the back of the net in a one-sided pre-season encounter.

However, there were big plusses for the hosts off the pitch, with more than 10,900 supporters turning out to see the game and back Bristol's bid to host World Cup football.

Ismail Aissati and Suarez tested Dean Gerken in the City goal early on, and City had barely tested their opponents when the opener arrived.

On 27 minutes Emanuelson nipped in ahead of Ivan Sproule, raced forward unchallenged and teed-up Suarez for a smart finish into the top corner.

Suarez and Aissati both went close before goal number two on 35 minutes, Aissati this time finding Emanuelson, who had evaded the offside trap and coolly finished over Gerken's onrushing body.

Bradley Orr almost gave the home support something to cheer with a cheeky long-range lob before half-time but the ball dropped just over the top.

City made five changes at the interval, including the introduction of trialist keeper Peter Brezovan. The Slovak keeper had answered a late call from City boss Gary Johnson after Adriano Basso had been ruled out with a calf injury.

Lewin Nyatanga operated well at left-back and Danny Haynes looked particularly sharp - and quick - on the right of a three-pronged attack.

The chances kept coming for Ajax with Suarez rattling the crossbar from distance, Evander Sno missing an open goal and Bradley Orr denying Suarez on the goal-line.

The icing on the cake for Ajax was Luque's brilliant 45-yard lob of Brezovan nine minutes from time. The former Newcastle United and Deportivo forward beat the big keeper with a perfectly-executed chip, after being picked out by trialist Alexei Eremenko's misplaced pass.

And Rommedahl made it four at the end with his first touch since arriving on the pitch, coolly chipped Brezovan after being picked out by Suarez.

 

 

City: Gerken (Brezovan 46); Orr (Ribeiro 62), Carey (Papazacharias 62), Fontaine (J.Wilson 62), McAllister (Nyatanga 46); Johnson (Artus 62 (Plummer 87)), Skuse (Hartley 82), Elliott (Eremenko 62); Sproule (Haynes 46), Maynard (Akinde 46), Clarkson (McIndoe 46).

 

 

Ajax: Stekelenburg, van der Wiel, Vertonghen, Emanuelson, Sulejmani, Aissati, Suarez, Wielaert, Alderweireld, Sno, Kennedy. Subs: Verhoeven, Lindgren, De Jong, Anita, Rommaedahl, Ogarau, Luque.

 

 

Attendance: 10,933.

Well we've beaten that already ;-)

 

Indeed...and on another article on their OS they were hopeful that the 'good turnout' would help their application to stage a World Cup game....

You're not taking this thread seriously are you?

 

That would be a fairly accurate assumption yes.

 

For the record, I would but I'm working up North of the border over the week end, so can't.

LOL - no, the crutches don't fit in the bath. Tried the shower (sitting down) but forgot to put the shower gel within reach :cry:

 

Crutches? Bringing you things in a kind of servant way is what small children are for - when they are 4 they see these chores as treats ;-)

All at school or swimming with their mum. If I don't report back soon, phone the fire brigade.
