[@TheFootyTrip]

Thank you Sir, very much appreciated. Would love to go back again and spend a little more time in the city

[@AmarbirSingh]

Excellent video thanks for sharing

[@TheFootyTrip]

Thank you my friend, glad you enjoyed it

[@Alex-bf7mc]

Just booked it, cheap flights and 2 additional games so just thought fuck it. Great video mate, cheers

[@Alex-bf7mc]

Also what’s the deal with the fan card for beers, just buy on the day at the ground and top it up? That’s one of the only things I hate about European football

[@TheFootyTrip]

Cheers pal, glad you enjoyed it. Yeah pretty much, get one when you arrive, easy to find and then same place to top up. Easy enough to be fair

[@TheFootyTrip]

Which games are you going to pal? Gutted i've not got time to get out on any trips in August.

[@Alex-bf7mc]

@@TheFootyTrip I'm doing Mechelen vs USG, so exact same fixture as you funnily enough. And i'm also doing OH Leuven vs Antwerp also. Yeah I got lucky with these flights but it's a bit of a nightmare tryna sort a groundhop trip in August cos flight prices are through the roof everywhere! Cheers for tips

[@TheFootyTrip]

@@Alex-bf7mc Haha, what are the chances, it's gonna be brilliant mate, shame about the flights though, bloody kids!! Let me know how it goes and if Leuven is worth a visit.

[@DaLimz79]

Me as Mechelaar thinks jou did it oké

[@TheFootyTrip]

Thank you my friend, it was a great experience to watch football there.

Hi mate we are travelling here on Saturday , do we need to know anything about getting served in the ground , do we need cards to top up or something . Any tips would be greatly appreciated Cheers

[@TheFootyTrip]

Hi mate, nothing too specific that i can think of. You do indeed need a card but you can purchase it at the bars in the stadium and add credit there. It was really straightforward, think it was just Jupiler on tap but that was pretty good to be fair. Easy access as well so can pop out during the game. It's a really enjoyable place to watch footy, you'll have a top time. Who are they playing on Saturday?
