Bristol Manor Farm (eighth tier of english football) do a gold hospitality ticket, you get to eat with a dinner with the players after the game and get a tour of the stadium
I just think the mentality around hospitality at a lower level club makes you feel more at home. That even they might not have the massive stadium and the greatest players in the world that you are part of their family. Thats what its all about.
Don't abandon this series, make it a "visiting the worst hospitality from x country" instead. It would be a great way to discover lower tier football teams around Europe
There is a direct public bus line from Stuttgart airport to Reutlingen: About 45 min to 1 hour, costs less than 10 Euros. Asking at the information desk could have helped.
If you consider "no hospitality" worse than "worse hospitality", then yes, I guess it would work a Romanian/Moldovan 2nd tier club. But hey, you might not even pay to watch a game
They played in the second division twice in their history. Last time 2002/03. Armin Veh who later won the Bundesliga with Stuttgart in 2007 got them promoted.
@@awaydaysfootball To be exactly these are Semmelknödel (bread dumplings). A typical side dish for the South and Southwest of Germany. Sometimes they're made with smoked meat cubes but I prefer it vegetarian.
The Ultras probably all have been there and have probably been supporting their team at every home game since going down from 2. Bundesliga so they are absolutely the real heroes here.
Oh, let's go, you're doing Germany, I hope you had a great time here! I'm going to my local 6th tier club (SpVgg Landshut who is also fighting relegation) next weekend for the first time in my life as I was inspired by your videos visiting little league clubs. Love your vids, keep it up!
I would have never expected to see a video about Reutlingen on your channel but I'm here for it. Tell me when you're around Stuttgart again, I will happily take you wherever you need to go. And you should visit VfB Stuttgart or FC Heidenheim, both our regional first divison clubs are doing really well currently and have a great story to tell.
Germany is the closest to England in terms of footballing culture in Europe in that they also have support all the way through the pyramid which is great to see
2. Bundesliga also on par with the championship! Both leagues have massive clubs in them now, so basically it’s what the top tier devision of each country used to be
Exactly. In France tier 5 would be in front of a couple of dozen, even in Spain clubs don't have much support below the top two divisions. In Portugal, forget it, strictly friends and families only.
As a Brit in Germany you couldn't be further from the truth. Very, very different footy cultures in almost every way possible. Ellis even pointed a few of them out. Simlarities pretty much end after attendance sizes and willingness to consume beer (not even consumption of beer, due to English laws). Sweden, Denmark and of course Scotland are the closest footballing experiences to England I've experienced, and I've watched games in most Euro nations.
Watching videos with Ben in them makes me feel like I'm 15 years old again watching a King's Lynn Town awayday after getting home from school. Been watching from Chicago Illinois for years!
Another fantastic video lads. I love visits to Germany, as you said the people are so friendly. Ive still never managed a game there yet, but its high on my list of "must do's"
Even 5th tier in Germany have this kind of hospitality that most of our first division team in Malaysia didnt have, i said it again FIRST DIVISION, it was embrassing 😢
Since binging your channel 6 months or so ago you reminded me of the joy of live football/sport. I missed if from back home after I moved but since then Ive become basically a regular at Jong Ajax, a really nice night out, cheap and family friendly vibe, and Ajax will have some great players coming through I can claim to know before football manager does. I have a champions league quarter final coming up with Ajax Womens vs Chelsea Womens in the in the Johan Cruyff Arena and had some great fun going to FC Amsterdam in the 5th (I think) tier. Cheers for re-igniting my love of going to live football.
Szene E is a good ulra group. They had some rough years because the decline of the club. Also their biggest rivals all got promoted. Hard times for the lads.
Many thanks to both of you for coming all the way down to our club in the fifth division and for eating properly! I heard that the food in England is a bit problematic? No, joke! 😆 You can also eat well in England. I love the brown sauce and Fish and Chips. But it's nice that you were in Reutlingen! Thanks! 😘
You guys are such sweeties, I work about 11 hrs and I come back home very tired but as I get that notification from yours , I postpone my sleep like literally. You are a top notch vibe kid . Love you guys and you've got the blessing from the universe . I'm a Roma fan FIY , and I'll be glad to see you at the olimpico . Blessings on whatever you do man . I'm with you . ❤
Macclesfield FC have a good hospitality package! Also good history on their recovery from bankruptcy, now play in the 3rd tier of non league football! Definitely worth a trip down
Imagine if instead of the iconic 1966 World Cup commentary “they think it’s all over….it is now” it was Ellis saying “someone has farted…yeah someone has farted”
Its so nice of you visiting smaler clubs but please go to the Stuttgarter Kickers (league 4 almost 3) and to the SC Freiburg to. Sadly you never be able to visit Freiburg with Kristian Streich unless you done it before somer breake
Guys, I can recommend Cracovia in Krakow - the most bizarre orchestrated fan involvement I've ever seen. One bloke with a mic and another with a drum set the scene. They all know exactly when to set off fireworks, or raise a giant banner, or sing a particular song. it's like a west end musical based loosely on football. The game finished 0-0 and was lousy but I'll never forget it (great wine bar though) - they never shut up for the whole game
A few days ago, TH-cam recommended your Euros hospitality video and I've been having a good time watching your videos since! If you need someone else who's willing to, you know, make a sacrifice by accompanying you to a game, let me know. ;) I'm American and live close to where Germany, Austria, and Switzerland come together, and am also happy to translate what cab drivers say.
your vids are always fantastic and you and your mates are great lads. ps I had acne exactly like yours and it gets better brother! good luck with the accutane
7:53 Middel of no where? If you say that than the north of scotland ore skandinavia was behind the moon xD I mean SSV Reutlingen isnt fare away from the town
I went to Soccer City in Soweto yesterday to watch Orlando Pirates V Kaiser Chiefs. 90,000 supporters enjoyed a 3-2 win for Pirates. You might want to consider this as an experience!
I don’t know, it looked like a 25 Euro spread to me including the beer. Which means you pay 40 Euro for a fifth tier league game. OTH, if they are friendly and welcoming that makes a lot up for it.
Being from the States that looks like an amazing deal. €65 in USD would get you a standard seat, a couple small items of food, and maybe one beer. That’s for mid market MLS. Go to NFL and you’d get inside and maybe a cold hot dog.
@@TheHesseJames It's unlimited drinks. (For 4 hours straight) So, if you want to drink 7/8 pints you can. (or even more) Which normally would already cost you in Germany around the 45 to 50 pounds. Then 15 pound left for the meal and dessert and the match.
If you talk about the atmosphere in german Studiums there are many more where the Fans won't Sound with the same Volume for the same game. Maybe get to smaller Stadiums in 2nd or 3rd League in germany, for many the atmosphere is much better as the stadiums Arena smaller :)
I freakin LOVE that I just watched someone else get fleeced by a German cab driver because I had the same happen to me…..I knew exactly what he was doing so I was calling him every German cuss word my buddy taught me😂😂😂😂
You should visit Alemannia Aachen. They're probably the best supported side in an amateur league in the entire world. They have an average attendance of 16108 this season. Second highest in the same league is 3183.

I did wonder this - why anyone would get a taxi from an airport unless it’s unsociable hours is beyond me
Hey Guys, It was really a pleasure to cater for you. You’re very welcome to join me the next time for making dumplings together
Thanks for visit us 🙂
Das ja mal coole Social-Media-Arbeit! 👍
@wolfganggusinde-party-serv7832, From the US here. You should do a video on dumpling making!
Surely you could have found a club in the Moldovan 2nd tier that would have been worse than this?
or a bottom half team in Ligue 1
Would love to know the balance of thumbs up on this comment pre and post the 8 minute mark 😆
If you consider "no hospitality" worse than "worse hospitality", then yes, I guess it would work a Romanian/Moldovan 2nd tier club. But hey, you might not even pay to watch a game
For a 5th tier going down to 6th thats some great support.
They are not just a random club. They are very strong friends with VFB Stuttgart
They played in the second division twice in their history. Last time 2002/03. Armin Veh who later won the Bundesliga with Stuttgart in 2007 got them promoted.
@@davinnicodeArmin Veh doesn't get anyone promoted, he drinks while the team gets themselves promoted!
the dumplings are called "Knödel" here in germany and are basically made from old stale bread its kinda goated recycle food
I want to marry them
@@awaydaysfootball To be exactly these are Semmelknödel (bread dumplings). A typical side dish for the South and Southwest of Germany. Sometimes they're made with smoked meat cubes but I prefer it vegetarian.

@@awaydaysfootball so like bread and butter pudding
@@jameswg13 I just had a look online at the recipe, very much like it, but more savory . Bacon in it, and usually individual dumplings.
For €65 that was well good. Unfortunately the team isn't as good but compared to your last VIP still was 100x better experience
The Ultras probably all have been there and have probably been supporting their team at every home game since going down from 2. Bundesliga so they are absolutely the real heroes here.
I used to live like five minutes from there and never expected you to be there. Fun video and glad you enjoyed it. Reutling' und der VfB.

Your content is dogsht and Messi owns Penaldo

it seems as the standard of football depreciates the level of hospitality increases - I'd like to see a lower league Spanish trip to compare Vs Madrid

Kudos for remembering who King's Lynn Town are 😂. 👏
You could have bought a 49€-Ticket. It allows you to use all regional trains, busses, trams etc. in Germany for a whole month.
Geht nur in einem
Abo
Easily better support than at Man City or Arsenal. Not surprised because thats German football culture
Idiotic comment
Mental that the atmosphere was better there than anywhere in England
Talking about german 5th tier like that is wild. I bet we are at least at one level with the english teams.
Your favorite dumpling was a Semmelknödel! Glad you enjoyed it! All the best from Reutlingen! Forza Reutlingen, forza VfB
The spilled coffee in true awaydays fashion
the music at 13:31 reminds me of that kids TV show Zaaap! from the 90s, showing my age! Nostalgic though. Great video Ellis! haha
You can buy those dumplings in the supermarket, they‘re called knödel. Just chuck them in hot water for a bit.
Oh, you sure HAVE to do Moldova's 2nd division. That's gonna be wild.

Good look on the Accutane treatment. Worth it.
I took it in my teen years. It works but plays havoc on your body otherwise.
Building that massive stand pretty much bankrupted the club..
Great stadium and experience for 65 and 5th tier
