In Bergen for the Leeds-match?
Information for English Leeds-fans traveling to Bergen for the pre-season between Brann and Leeds.
Despite a short timeframe and some unclear factors along the way, Leeds United Supporters Club of Scandinavia has worked hard to establish a meeting-place and creating a good Leeds-atmosphere in Bergen before and after the match vs Brann.
The place where Leeds-supporters gather is the Fotballpuben, as you could guess by the name a pub in the heart of Bergen where the local faithfuls gather to watch the lads when on tv.
From 12:00 on the Tuesday, there will be Leeds through and through, with Leeds-videos on the tv-screens, music and some smaler events taking place.
At around 13:00 we are glad to invite Eirik Bakke and Gylfi Einarsson in for a half-hour greeting with the fans, and we are working on getting other Leeds-personalities as well.
From 17:00 there will be a free bus/buses departing just outside the Fotballpuben, taking the fans directly to the ground where the match kicks off at 19:00.
To find the pub in Google Maps, please see this link. There are special prices in the bar on drinks if you show your membership-card of LUSCOS or MC.
Leeds are expected to have an open training on the Tuesday just outside Brann Stadium, while the training on Tuesday am will be closed for the public.
For tickets to the match, please see Brann’s website, www.brann.no/english
Welcome to Bergen and Norway!
PS! If you are in Bergen on the Monday too, the pub is also open for Leeds-fans through the night. Please note the Leeds on the Road-event takes place at Brann Stadium, doors opening at 19:00 and finishing at 22:00.
