um pahars Posted 5 June, 2009 Share Posted 5 June, 2009 Have to say that given some of our recent opponents this is a pretty decent fixture. Up there with the coup of Bayern Munich a few years back. Would have thought a decent crowd for the regime's first home game (fingers crossed) could be expected. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theirs is in Portugal, I am there at the time and have a Benfica supporting father-in law so may go and sit in the Benfica end.

Chris Larkin Posted 5 June, 2009 Share Posted 5 June, 2009 Excellent news! I'm all excited about the football again now. Annoyingly I'll be at Glade Festival in Winchester that weekend, but at least it's looking good for the future if they feel confident enough to announce a prestige fixture like this now.

Victor Posted 5 June, 2009 Share Posted 5 June, 2009 Nice. An early thrashing. That'll give the kids plenty of confidence. Perhaps Eastbourne Borough would have been more appropriate opponents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

krissyboy31 Posted 5 June, 2009 Share Posted 5 June, 2009 I wonder what Ajax supporters think about an away friendly against a 3rd tier English club? Anything like we have in the past going to Holland or Sweden playing 3rd tier teams? A complete waste of time, probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveyR Posted 5 June, 2009 Share Posted 5 June, 2009 Great news I'm darrn sarff that weekend doing the whole family visiting thing. Might take my nipper with me. He is a curse though, both games he's been to we've lost against Peterborough and Notts county. He's still a Saints fan though I think I've brainwashed him satis.

70's Mike Posted 5 June, 2009 Share Posted 5 June, 2009 sorry to be a bit negative but i think we may need to see the side Ajax put out before shouting what a great fixture it is, a team of 18 year old unknowns is likely, we need to get real we are in the third division next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint Martini Posted 5 June, 2009 Share Posted 5 June, 2009 sorry to be a bit negative but i think we may need to see the side Ajax put out before shouting what a great fixture it is' date=' a team of 18 year old unknowns is likely, we need to get real we are in the third division next season[/quote'] They'll put out their first team but expect a big squad with some youngsters in it. But since the match will be a good three weeks after Ajax start their pre-season all their "stars" will be playing. Keep an eye out for Suarez, a brilliant player that will no doubt be playing in one of the top Spanish teams soon.
