I bought my ticket on internet about two weeks before the game. The ticket selling website is only available in Dutch and French o I had to use Google translator but it worked fine. They do not send tickets abroad so I picked them up before the match. there is a special ticket window at the stadium to collect internet bought tickets. I was planning to go to see a game between Anderlecht and Olympiacos earlier but the tickets never went on general sale. It is quite strange that only 15000 people attended that game but rather then selling tickets to open public they preferred to leave a quarter of the stadium empty. When I finally made it to Constant Vanden Stock Stadium I was happy with both internal and external look of it. Metro station Is just 500 meters away from the stadium. Just exit the station to the right, take first right and keep walking until you see the ground on your left. In my opinion they take security measures to extreme in Brussels. I went there just for the day mainly to watch the game. I had a little over shoulder bag with me. I was told it is not allowed to get into the stadium with any bag at all. I had to keep everything in my pockets and that included the bag itself. I don’t think it made any differenced if I had everything in pockets or a small bag. Match day programmes are free and were given out just outside the stadium. I think seats are quite small, but I am a big guy so it is just my personal opinion. The are comfortable though. Food and drink outlets are located inside the stadium so you have a range of products to choose from. I was quite disappointed with the lack of support from the home fans. Maybe it was due to a weaker opponent. Overall Brussels is beautiful and I recommend every footy fan to go and attend a match at Constant Vanden Stock Stadium.

Ground: Constant Vanden Stock Stadium
Anderlecht, Brussels
Date and match visited: Sunday, 4th March 2012 vs Cercle Brugge.

On taking my eldest son to visit Brussels, we decided to try and see a Anderlecht match. Getting tickets in advance was not so easy even though the official website(http://www.rsca.be/go/en)does have a e-mail address (ticketing@rsca.be), but I did not recieve any replies to my request on how to actually purchase tickets online.
I then saw via the web a list of RSCA Supporters assocations with contact details. I ended up getting in touch via e-mail with the Secretary, a chap called Ivan. He was most helpful,and arranged 2 tickets which he posted to the UK and I paid ticket price into his bank account. Prices were 24 euros each.
We even arranged to meet before the match to exchange scarfs (our Team being Heart of Midlothian FC, of Edinburgh, Scotland).
The actual stadium is accessible by metro from central Brussels and then a short 10 mminute walk to the Stadium. There are plently food outlets, bars and cafe surrounding the Stadium.
Inside the stadium, it has a compact feel, seating is reasonably comfortable and views are generally good.
There are actually small cafe style bars within each area of the Stadium where you can have a beer or soft drink, before , during and after the match.
Overall it was a good visiting experience with a pleasant atmosphere.
