    Appreciate all the help and advice with the thread. I'm heading to Europe at the end of this month, and am hoping to see two games in Holland. November 14 (Holland vs. Germany) and November 17, Ajax vs. VVV-Venlo. I actually already registered on the KNVB website for the Oranje game, but I didn't buy anything yet, and I'm not sure if they would be able to leave it at will call for me. And for the Ajax game, I should just show up real early on gameday, and ask a supporter? I hope they speak English well, I don't know a word of Dutch (hopefully I'll learn a bit though!).

    How easy is it to get a clubcard? Can you turn up on the day of a game, even if a bit early, and register and get one, or is there some grinding bureaucratic process that takes several days?

    Rather than the usual Ajax/Feyenoord request, I'm after one for Go Ahead Eagles, for their play-off game on Thursday night - cards are required.

    I've sent a couple of emails to the club, but they've not bothered replying so far, and I leave for Holland on Wednesday. I'm staying in Haarlem (hopefully well away from the Chelsea hordes) so it's a bit far to go without having a good chance of thinking I'll get in.

    Why not phone the club? I guarantee that whomever answers will speak English.
