It's nice that Ajax appear to be on the way back.

[Sir C]

The world seems more normal, somehow.

One wonders whether this upturn is the result of Bergkamp putting Cruyff's policies into place. It would be nice to think so.

Eldest went on a school football trip to Ajax last month, siad the training facility was outstanding and the coaches were signing the praises of the blond las who scored last night.... they looked very good going forward, a bit like a Monaco lite.

I hope Celta Vigo muller them in the final.

I was talking to a Feyenoord fan last week who disagreed. He was very much of the 'Fûck Ajax' school of thought.

I think the training facilities have always been ahead of their time but something went a bit wrong for 10 years or so.

It's a very young first team, apparently. Dutch football is badly in need of a lift.

You were talking to a Feyenoord fan? You realise that they are the Spurs of Holland, don't you? Except for the jew thing.

Why's that, 7? Do you have an affection for the Hibernian spanishers?

Eh? I <3 Portugal, fùck all to do with Scotland.

Dolberg is very highly rated though appears to more readily linked with City and Everton than us.

Bazoer in midfield also.

I quite like watching the Eridivisie.

Sorry.

Well he described Ajax as the Manchester United of Holland, so :shrug:

Sorry, no time. I have to go and milk the pigs.

[Sir C]

You don't seem to be following me. He is Feyenoord, and therefore a Rotterdam chav. How many times have I told you about Rotterdam chavs?

If anyone is the Man Utd of Holland it would be PSV anyway.

[SWv2]

This is deviancy unbounded, sw :-( :jorge:

I thought it might get lost on page 1 and that I might get away with it.

I have screenshotted it.*

Welcome back, Jorge :thumbup:

Et tu A.

I have gone on record before as saying I am often happier watching European football sides than non-Arsenal PL games.

That's just because you hate England and anything good and decent, sw.

It was meant in an affectionate way for our departed pal. And I basically agree with you anyway, albeit without the knowledge of players names and skill sets. And there is nothing wrong with that knowledge. I like watching Spanish football because it doesn't directly remind me how crap Arsenal are in the same way that PL football does.

I decided last night that I am happier watching a closely balanced test match between cricket sides that aren't England than watching Arsenal struggle to string a few passes together. wd W. Indies and Pakistan.

Yes, that was a Shaime. :-( Really hoped he'd get his ton. A nice bloke too, according to the commentator who was Singhing his praises.

Limahl, of course. Mark Hamill. Fine hairdo.

You ever have one of those?

[Sir C]

You ever have one of those?

No, I don't think I ever had quite the length or the volume.

[Burney]

No, I don't think I ever had quite the length or the volume.

So I've heard, but we were talking about your hair.
