Guess who's back? Our very good mate Stijn Vreven. I think he was fired by Vitesse during last season or something like that, but the gentleman of football will return. He signed a contract at... yes, that's right, ADO Den Haag! A player whom we all love joining a club that we all love. What a wond...

According to german tabloid Bild Italy can lose their gold medals, because of Materazzi's words. The newspaper says that according to the new FIFA rules (these about fighting with racism) it is possible. That will IMO never happen. Think of the consequenses. And anyways, Zidane never said anything ...

According to Swedish and Italian press, pendig a highly likely relegation to Serie B for Juventus, Zlatan is ready for Inter.

OPH, crack the champage ;)

I like the new Tool album, alot. Gnarls Barkley, as mentioned, is a good one. Bought Depeche's playing the nagel, which isn't new, but wuite good. Saw them live ast friday. They were good. Otherwise, I'm listening alot to old stuff by Van Morrisson. Had no relation to him before. But since I really ...

Juventus will be relegated, hell, even their attourney pleeded for serie B, if that's not a statement of knowing you're fucked, then what is?

And anyways....Viera will never come to Ajax. So we can probably drop that dream alltogether.

In regards to Aveslacker not accepting the argument: "Everyone else is doing it so it's fine" I take it you are referring to some of my bitter remarks? If so, that was not my intention of those. My intention was to get the point across that : Everyone else is doing it so I don't get why Portugal and...

THAT'S IT!

Now you may call me many things, but not level-headed.

:D

I also actually agreee with some people here. Ghana were great to watch. Germany really tried, and seem to have pulled that off quite well.

Holland were just like Holland always are.

I think it was a dive. Doesn't matter, as I said - I don't think anyone plays without dives, cheating or unsportsmanship conduct. I do think the Italians deserved it, just as much as anyone else in the semis would have. Would have enjoyed seeing the Argentinians and Holland a few more games, but you...

I can't say I hate Portugal for being diving, cheating cry babies. I think all the fucking teams of the world do that nowadays. There are a few stand up - do your work without taking a piss - real players. Zambrotta and Cannavaro are two of those. I salute thair play and enjoy that they got to take ...

I'd give anything to find out what Materazzi said to Zidane. It can't have been the ordinary Cazzo....

Hi.

One thing to share:

Sat in a car for a total of 3830 km to see Sweden get humiliated in 12 minutes.

Drank beer. Lots.

Had a nice vacation.

Catch you all on the flipside.

Going to see Emmylou Harris in two weeks (together with Mark Knopfler which kind off bums me out a bit). I am soooo psyched to see her for the first time, I've been listening to her music for a couple of years and fora while I was completely lost in Wrecking ball and the two subsewuent albums coming...

jakobg said: I think it's good for Ajax that Huntelaar wasn't picked, since he would have been even more attractive for the clubs in the big leagues if he would have done good in the WC. Anyway, it's sad for Huntelaar as a player, but his time will come. Next time he'll be sure to get a spot. Dont ...

Yup, like you say, it's Allbäck or Rosenberg.

Tehy actually decided to also go for Mattias Jonson and Elmander, so I'd say the four of them will battle it out for some playing time. For some reason, Jonson always manages to cop some time on the pitch in big events.

Rosenbergt got the call up for Sweden's WC squad today. I think he will see very little playing time though.

Hmmmm * Surprises in a good way: The fact that we finally managed to sign a killer striker * Disappointments: All junior defene mistakes * Signature moments: First half against Inter * Controversies: Blind's appearance HY (he literally looked like he hadn't slept for years. * Favorite personal memor...

He's invited for a weeks training. Olsen have scouted him and seen him a couple of times over the last year. He's been invited two time before but has been stopped by Trelleborg. He's a forward, plays in the B-squad of Trelleborg (who's A-squad plays in the second highest division in Sweden). He's b...

I'm alive. I've just benn f#cking busy, out of the country and out of my mind (?).

Just checked in today for the first time in a month or so. Nice to be missed. I'll check the news piece for ya!

Firstly I thought Pienaar was quite shitty. Especially in first half. Rosenberg did stay away from the wing, but doing them runs ENABLED crosses to come from that flank at all, by driving his defender with him he created space for Juanfran to make crosses. That was the biggest difference between the...

Yipiiii!

I'm able to catch the game live on tv.

It's nt often, I hope they deserve it.

OK, but if we put in money ti bouild it we must have some shares in the company? Or do they even share revenues with us? Reason I'm asking is: 1. I wanted to know if the Arena was an asset of ours and how much that's worth "in the books" then 2. Owning your own arena will allow for a totally differe...

Right: Finances.

Do we own the Arena or is that the city?

It wasn't the Celtic thing I ment.

I ment that how could you buy a CD with picks from footie chaps.

But as Ko says.....your're nuts :D

What proportion of Celtic's revenue is attributable to sales of Henrik Larsson's toe fungus and toe nail clippings? and what proportion is from the "The Official Celtic Players Top 20" CD which I bought for £2.99....actually some quite good tracks on there, I think Ajax are missing an opportunity....

Re: Revenue streams (oh yeah you got me going =)) You could also say that the mere 12% of revenues coming from tv isn't all that bad. The tv-rights may just be a bubble given the explosion it has had the last couple of years. I wonder if not a club with Ajax's history and low audience competition (r...
