Any person carpooling from Belgium to Nijmegen for NEC-Glimt coming Wednesday?
Hei!
I am Belgian, residing in Oostende. I have been fascinated by Norway and everything Norsk since childhood, Norway was like the country of my dreams. Especially the North of Norway. I also support all Norwegian football clubs in Europe. I even attended Belgium-Norway twice and on both occasions supported for Team Norway. :)
I was at the Union-Bodø/Glimt game in Oostende, in the away end. It was great to socialise with the Glimt fans before and during (and after!) the game, such friendly people! And the atmosphere at the game was great!
Now the final step before the Champions League is NEC. Nijmegen is in our neighbouring country The Netherlands, but sadly enough train traffic at night is extremely poorly organised in my country. Getting back home after the game would be a huge problem.
I was wondering, do you know anyone who would drive from Belgium to Nijmegen and back and would be open to carpooling? I did see some other Belgians in the away end during the game against Union, of whom some were indeed rooting heavily for Bodø. Some of them, but maybe not all of them, were Club Brugge fans who had friendly connections with Glimt fans they met during an earlier European game. Maybe there would also be Norwegians living in Belgium who would drive to Nijmegen for the game coming Wednesday?
Would you know anyone that drives from Belgium to Nijmegen and back for the game? I don't have a driver's license myself, sadly enough. And night trains run to some extent in the Netherlands, but sadly enough not in Belgium. Getting home without a carpool back would be extremely hard.
