Dutch tidbits… Sneijder to move to ManU?
With Oranje being home again, it’s time to spend some time on “other” football news…
The new season is on it’s way, the De Haan Gang will soon start to dominate the news and life, well…life does go on.
We will follow the EC still, of course. We have Guus in there still, our Spanish friends, our [...]
Thanks for the memories….
Gio and Sar celebrate the fact the Russians only scored three times!!
Despite the defeat against a strong and vibrant Russia, a warm thank you to Gio, Edwin, Marco, Nigel, Ruud, Robin and all the others for the wonderful memories this tournament. We were critical and skeptcial before the start. We became euphoric after two matches [...]
Holland - Russia: match predictions
Sorry guys, I am a bit busy today, but I have got to do this. So, “kort door de bocht” this time.
Holland has as plusses: oozes confidence, top form, Robben/Robin fit, tight outfit and extra motivation for Boulah and Sabia, best players of the world

Poll: Best Dutch goal ever? (Part 1.)
Look guys, it’s part one, ok? I know there’s more to come and the real “best goal ever” will be selected after the finals! We want to give Ruud and Rafael some more opportunities. But, I can’t control myself… I wanted to poll your ideas already. So, humor me, ok?

Matchday 13: What have we learned?
Marco van Basten: I wasn’t impressed with Germany!
Joachim Low does look good in a cage.
Oranje does its best to enchant the world, only for the Oranje fans to ruin it: dozens of Oranje fans got lost in Switzerland. Lost! In Switzerland!! Dozens of them…
(In all honesty: the group fans were walking through Basel and saw [...]
Matchday 12: what have we learned?
Watching football, even at 4.30 am, is fun!
Henke Larsson will be able to head balls on the cross bar when he is 73 years old.
Frank Rijkaard is mentioned in the Portuguese Press as Scolari’s successor…
Russia still plays in all-red kits.
Scolari’s biggest strength by the way, is his communications with the players. He is moving to [...]
Comfortable Dutch…
I’ve waited a long time to write my first post. It’s been hard too. I’m hesitant and I’ve been hurt in the past. I realize I sound like a jilted romantic but its true. So much promise and up until now very little realisation of that promise.
But at last I have [...]
Van Persie Man of the Match
Robin scores the 2-0
Oranje started with nine new names against Romania, but never got into trouble: 2-0.
Robin van Persie was selected as Holland’s Man of the Match. “It goes to show, with nine new players we beat Romania. The team that Italy and France couldn’t sweep aside. You can’t call this team a B-team, can [...]
Match day 9: What have we learned?
This time, San Marco isn’t impressed with Oranje!!
While Jurgen Low suddenly declared Holland to be the favorite!
Guus Hiddink thinks his Russia isn’t up to Holland just yet.
The Portuguese B-team isn’t that sharp.
Turkey played impressive. For 20 minutes or so. And it was enough…
Edwin van der Sar: I’m not too impressed with that Petr Cech!
Germany now [...]
Nigel de Jong, our new Jan Wouters?
It was eleven months or so ago, when Nigel de Jong sat down to have a good talk. With himself. “This has to be your year,” he said.
He had just made up the balance so far of his career and he was not impressed. He made his debut for Ajax just 17 years old. But [...]
