Old lag
I’ve been to see Union a few times over the years. At first I wasn’t convinced (thought it was a bit ‘football-hipster’ you know, like St Pauli?) but as you say it is a proper club with some great characters in the stands. I’ve always had a good time there, though sadly often come home pissed, and I’m glad to see them doing well. A few of my mates have bought season tickets and I must admit that I was tempted until wifey pointed out that I already have one for BDTBL that I don’t use . Sometimes it’s just not worth the aggravation is it?Union was last in the first division when there were still dinosaurs walking around. They are a tradition club but have a small fan base and only the third club in Brussels after Anderlecht and RWDM. They have done good cheap transfers the last years via Bloom’s data scouting and are reaping the rewards now.
