Kevin Schade interview: The Path to the Premier League
Kevin Schade has plunged himself into a new country, club and culture.
But Brentford’s new forward is no stranger to change, having left home at the age of 12 to pursue his dream of becoming a professional football player.
From living in a boarding house at the Energie Cottbus Academy to his Bundesliga debut against Borussia Dortmund, we sat down with Kevin to reflect on his journey so far.
An extract from the interview will be published on Thursday.
The full interview will be available to read for the first time in Monday’s match programme.
Newcastle tickets on sale to My Bees Members with 40+ TAPs
My Bees Members with 40+ TAPs can purchase tickets for our home game against Newcastle United from 2pm on Thursday.
Given the high demand for tickets, and the consequent risk of away fans trying to access tickets, we have decided to apply a minimum 40 TAPs threshold for ticket purchases.
This will remain a Category B fixture and therefore there will only be one window of sale to all My Bees Members who meet the TAPs criteria.
Find out more about the on-sale process for Category B games.
