First Player I Pack, I Go Watch Live (Europe Edition)

[@Karlmcewan]

The fact you don't fake it is what makes this amazing. Like, you're basically saying. "Pick the cheapest flight on a day, then when you arrive, pick the cheapest flight at that airport, then we watch football". It's more of an adventure channel, than a football channel, and it's bloody awesome.

[@Guevon_Pajaro]

YES, please ellis never change the concept. stay authentic dude! thats all. its brilliant. :D

[@tobybushnell]

I used to live in Sweden. You confused pickled herring with surströmming. Pickled herring is nice. Surströmming is fermented herring... and it's rancid. Surströmming comes in a can and you're not allowed to open it inside. The smell alone usually makes people vomit.

[@simoncotterill9660]

I feel like I'm saying it on every video you release at the moment but THIS is the way forward. The travelogue style with some football thrown in is so refreshing and entertaining, even more so when it's lesser teams involved. That's what I love to see. Sod your European elite, I want to see these players playing through sheer love of the game, no matter the level.

This is the series I am watching for just so you know. Random, not popular place, eat food, take in the sights and sounds, and watch the game like a real person.

9:00 that’s why I love your channel. Cos it’s authentic, never change!!

[@NPC-yb3rw]

My favorite moment pf any of these videos is when Ellis forgets himself for moment. His eyes crunch up and his grin goes wide, and for a while he seems genuinely content. No sarcasm or awkward jokes. It’s good to see brother. Whatever your’e doing, keep it up.

These type of videos are why this is one of my favorite channels to watch! I wish I had your passion and drive to visit the football world when I was in England almost 15 years ago!

[@Tris2000]

As soon as you said you were going 1 hour outside of Gothenburg it was obvious. Then you showed the town name on the Escape Room poster. I made the journey from London to Borås to see Valencia CF win 1-2 away, with Valencia’s first goal by Helguera coming at the start, and the match finishing with a David Villa goal (who’d come on for David Silva). Great Valencia team, also had Morientes, Joaquín and Raúl Albiol playing. Champions League qualifier.

Santa Maria vs Palmieres (1-1, 2nd vs 1st) on the Island of Sal, Cape Verde. 500 fans, crazy, passionate, friendly atmosphere. One of the best experiences i've ever had. AC Milan vs Barcelona (0-0 in CL), having to run 2 miles back to our hotel from a load of knife weilding Ultras as they thought we were Spaniards in their end. One of the scariest experiences i've ever had. Love an away day!!

[@WallieTheRed]

That was brilliant, I love the concepts of different ways just to get to go and see football. I know they'll never be on the game but I just got back from my adopted team Hanoi fc's draw with bitter rivals hai phong in the v league an eventful 2-2 draw. The only player we've had over the 7 years I've followed them that has a connection to UK football is Anthony le tallecs brother last season and he was bobbins. The cult player denilson once played for Haiphong many moons ago, I think he played one game and scored an absolute screamer in the first ten mins from a free kick and then I think he went off and never played again leaving the country within a few weeks. Anyway, I wish we could get you to Asia and it's less illustrious countries to do the same thing. I did Japan recently and finally got to see Gamba Osaka (magnificent stadium and shirt and the iconography we anoraks know for their game Vs sociedad for Kubo take (once of real Madrid), cerezo Osaka and Dortmund for shinji kagawa to play for his first and current club against the 2nd biggest club he played for (I was there in my United top and he walked right past and completely ignored me. Then a more subdued game in Kyoto Vs Stuttgart. Anyway Come to Vietnam for a game, can you imagine the food, the sightseeing and the most horrific and dangerous travelling to games (busses that drive crazy, scooters all over the place) 😅😅 you'd 100% get on the pitch to meet the player. Anyway, pipe dreams aside I really enjoyed this even with the Weeds sweater. You're looking the best I've seen you in ages and Ben was on form. Brilliant lads, thank you.
