Underpants Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) What are your experiences? I've not done any, not even our very own (if they still do it) Temple Of White God's tour. I've just sat through a few on YouTube from a bloke who is comparing one of against another - Liverpool/Everton, Sunderland/Newcastle, City/United etc... as well as clubs from across Europe. What grounds have the WWs massive done? And how did you find it? Edited April 12, 2020 by Underpants Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter RONNIE PHILLIPS Posted April 12, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted April 12, 2020 Done Ajax, it was decent. It was club card payments for stuff at the ground back then in 1997... Only just started phasing it in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marple whites Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Ajax was really good, must have been similar time and I also thought ours was decent. thats the only 2 I have done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jol_BWFC Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 My experience has been varied. I’ve tended to do it on a matchday, as I was there for a game anyway. However, you get much more limited access - some of the behind the scenes areas are shut e.g. changing rooms. So my advice would be to avoid match days. I’ve done a few “B”s - Bolton, Barca and Boca Juniors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traf Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Barca was shit, or Calella? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted April 12, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted April 12, 2020 Not done many. Done ours, Barca and old Wembley. This that’s it. Ours is the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leyther_Matt Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Did ours as a teenager and really enjoyed it. Was dragged on one around Old Trafford as a kid for someone’s birthday, was interesting just because of the sheer size of it but I will point out I wore a Bolton shirt. Also did both Central Park and JJB Stadium on school trips. Guessing we’d been naughty and it was a punishment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marc505 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 I did Ajax too, was the day after they played FC Thun (?!) in Champions League and they still hadn't cleared up yet, there was vomit all over the place in the stands weirdly. Also on the same trip I had a tour of Allianz in Munich and it blew me away, was like nothing I'd ever seen and I thought imagine what it'd be like to watch a game in here. It was 2005. Little did I know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marc505 Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Oh there were also vague plans to do a Bernabeu tour the day of the Atletico game. That went out the window with the tequila breakfast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RUREADY2ROLL Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Done ours and West Brom when we were playing them; took a client who is a West Brom fan with me and did corporate after. Ours was by far the best but still shit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter Alf Hartigan Posted April 12, 2020 Site Supporter Share Posted April 12, 2020 I honestly think that ours is the best. It's the only one I've done though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that, he's your boy, and I would do the same. As an adult I would rather do Shitehawk FC because I know what Barca and RM have done.

Leyther_Matt Posted April 12, 2020 Share Posted April 12, 2020 Anyone been to the Football Museum since they started charging? Been a couple of times and enjoyed it, but they’d need to be adding in a raft more stuff for it to be worth a tenner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoadRunnerFan Posted April 13, 2020 Share Posted April 13, 2020 (edited) Got dragged to the Swamp as a kid along with a fellow Wanderers supporter by a Munchen supporting schoolmate and his dad. I strongly suspect it was some kind of tawdry conversion attempt. The futility of the exercise was exposed in short order, the highlight of the day bring me and the other Wanderers fan sticking our fingers up the nose of the bust of Matt Busby. Did Barca about ten years back it was okay. Edited April 13, 2020 by RoadRunnerFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
