A Volendam supporter just sent me this link:

Oh well, the bloke got me tickets - and he will do it again for the league game in a few weeks' time. I'll cut him some slack.

Why did MvB risk Ajax's frontline players in a meaningless cup game last night? Just four days before Ajax - P$V for Christ's sake.

Now not only do we not have a striker worthy of the name fit, we've lost both our central defenders.

Then to cap it all van Basten has the nerve to say "We missed having a real striker".

No shit, Sherlock - play your kids next time...

Just catching up on other league cup scores. Both Real Madrid and Chelsea crashed out of their cups to lower division teams. I guess I don't feel quite as bad right now.

It surely indicates how important the domestic cup competitions are to the major clubs in every given country.

Nevertheless, Real Madrid, Chelsea and Ajax looked like a bunch of tits yesterday evening, no matter how you look at it.

I am full of obscure facts I think you all know this !!!!!!!!!!!

Just watched Ajaxtv highlights of last night. I also watched the reserves game v PSV and the A1 game from last Saturday. Marvin Zeegelaar featured in all 3 making his debut in 2 differnt levels of football in 48 hours. Having scored for the reserves he could not repeat it for the first team.

Playing 3 different levels in 5 days has got to be some sort of Ajax record.
I imagine only Kluivert and Van der Vaart possibly played for the first team with next to no reserve games. Menno will probably tell us!
