Hi there,
i just have a question. i’d be really glad if someone could help me.
i found a ticket for holland – italy game. how can i find out whether it is in the seats along with the dutch fans or with the italians? the ticket is category 1 seating.

has a orange fan i have a good feeling about this year euro.
if we can get a draw against italy, we can go and win every game

9 Ruud van Nistlerooy, great to know he’s # 9.

If you pay attention every # is related to that of his competitor like with Ruud (9) and Huntelaar (19) or with Robben (11) and Babel (21).

“i found a ticket for holland – italy game.”
Yianis – I suggest you return the ticket to the now-suicidal supporter that you just stole it from Just kidding. But seriously, how did you find a ticket??

i found the ticket from ebay.
a guy from my hometown was selling it so i got in touched with him face to face and… that’s all!
now i have to find out about the seating… really important!
anyway i am going, i am not missing the opportunity. hope i ll be among the oranje because even if being next to the italians i will not be able to control myself when we SCORE!!!!!

That means van Basten is proibably going to have the formation being

————-van der sar—————-
ooijer–heitinga–mathijsen–van bronkhorst
———de zeeuw—–engelaar———-
van persie——sneijder———-robben
———-van nistelrooij————-

Most of the time the starting eleven numbers get these positions.

That team’s not bad, but I’m starting to think Bouma should be in for Mathijsen and Affelay for De Zeeuw – things can still change I’m sure.

Just ordered my Van Persie shirt too – I went with the sexy flag stamped away kit
