This upcoming Friday: F-word vs AZ at De Kuip.
Should be an interesting match. F-word are shit, I know, but I watched AZ vs Heracles the other night and I thought AZ did not exactly look great either. Feyenoord away will be a tough away fixture for them, no matter how you look at it. It'll be one of those rare nights: I will be hoping for a Feyenerd win.

Did the fixture planners learn something from the Police Strike last year I wonder or is it just "co-incidence" that the fixture computer hasn't thrown up any more Superclassic weekends.Kowalczyk schreef:This upcoming weekend:
AZ vs FC Utrecht on Friday

It's exactly a year since my last game in Amsterdam (DWS v Elinkwijk 16/12/2007)!
Forza Haarlem. HFC Gone but not forgotten!
Az Vs Utrecht tonight, could be important, AZ are on fire atm but hopefully Utrecht can at least get a draw, so if we beat De Graffschap we will only be 1 point behind with one game to go before the break,.
Wishful thinking though because AZ will probably trounce the team that held us to a draw...but thats our season so far

Wit-rood-wit zit in ons bloed! We zijn de beste en zo goed. Ik spring me hele leven lang, voor: Ajax Amsterdam!

Today's breaking news is that Willem van Hanegem has been sacked by FC Utrecht.
What a soap opera. A few weeks ago the board felt that they had to take action because of the disappointing results. Their decision was a bizarre one: everybody was fired (assistants, staff) but not the responsible man (Van Hanegem).
Van Hanegem then reported sick and stayed at home for a few days, reportedly because he was so emotional about the whole thing. Then, stories started popping up in which it was claimed that Van Hanegem was the man who actually urged the board to fire his entire staff.
Yesterday, Van Hanegem heavily criticised the club: he had the feeling that they did not support him enough and he announced - totally out of the blue - that he was going to call it quits at Utrecht at season's end. One day later and the board have decided to sack him immediately.
Summary: it's a f**king mess over there - and we dropped two points against them.

This year seems no different than any other than I can remember for the recent years FCU; mediocrity and mid- table. No big budget for players or great youth starlets coming through begetting more mid-table mediocrity.

Every newspaper and football magazine in The Netherlands is now reporting that Feyenoord and head-coach Gertjan Verbeek will part ways immediately. It's everywhere, except on Feyenoord.nl. It's true; no doubt about it.
I think they're making a massive mistake here. The number of injuries has been absolutely gigantic in the first half of the season. Verbeek was always missing a handful of key players. Reportedly, some of the older players wanted him out. Verbeek's relationship with the old hands in his squad was very poor, but that does not necessarily mean that he wasn't doing a good job. Sometimes it's necessary that some of the old hands regard their head-coach as 'the enemy'. It's a process that's sometimes necessary.
I think F-word are sacking a very good coach here, and I don't think the next one will be a better man - whoever it may be.
Very nice to see that it's still a huge f*cking mess over there.
