The Trophy Cabinet

Nickname: | founded =

Adopting NEC means Europe UEFA Champions League results start mattering to you, a club going since 1900. Not a novelty, a habit.

Something to defend
The cabinet is not empty: Eerste Divisie and Tweede Divisie. Small enough to recite from memory, big enough to argue about in a pub.
Close to the pitch
Goffertstadion holds about 12,650. You can hear the defenders shouting at each other, which is the single best argument for lower-capacity football.
You get a nickname
Known as | founded =. That is your new shorthand, your search term and your excuse for buying a scarf.
Worth the journey
Nearest airport is Weeze (Niederrhein) Airport (NRN), roughly 32km out. This is not a casual away day, which is precisely why the people who do it take it seriously.

Ground: Goffertstadion. Go in a day early, find the pre-match pub, buy the programme.
