Other Eredivisie Teams

0-0 at HT No I have not watched it but after my meal I may watch the last 10 mins and hope PSV win .
A draw is Ok but Twente need to be beaten and if we win at RKC thats just 3 points off the top and then I believe we could win the title.

[Orange14]

one of the best wing crosses one will ever see. Koevermans with the goal; PSV 1:0

[SPL]

Good news.Am I allowed to cheer on the lightbulbers just for tonight ?.

[Cedric]

We'll tell you that in May...

[Orange14]

Too good to last. Poor defending; Ruiz to N'Kufo 1:1

[Orange14]

Twente totally outplayed but hold on for the draw. We need to take care of business tomorrow and move into 2nd place.

[Van basten]

Well, let's go to the 2nd place tomorow

[SPL]

1-1 . I watched from the Twente goal .In the end I am happy with the draw as a win for us means we will be 2nd and I do not see PSV with only 2 home games left finishing above us . Finishing 2nd
and aCL place is the main thing for us. Obviously I want the title and since the Christmas break we are the best team in the league.So the bottom line we need to keep winning make sure we finish above PSV and if Twente slip up and we win the title that would be fantastic.

What happened in Feyenoord-Vitesse game? I see that it's suspended.

Ah, it's because of rain..

[Blind3]

Must've been the fickle dutch weather. Couldn't have been cancelled for lack of quality. If that was the case, F-word would hardly ever get a game.

[Orange14]

Looks like we don't get any help from Sparta today. They are down to Twente 3:0 and have had a man sent off.

[Cedric]

Twente only have one guy who can score and they still are #1. I can't stand that.

[SPL]

I did not expect them to drop points last night . They are not dropping many and must still be title favourites .We must keep on winning and ensure we finish ahead of PSV for 2nd . If we do keep on winning and end up catching Twente that will be a bonus.(it will brilliant if we do )

[SPL]

Twente won 2-0 in Venlo . 2 mins from the end it looked like Venlo had agood penalty shout . Turmned down and Riaz went up the other end and scored no 2.

Even if we win all 5 games Twente now need to win 3of their last 4 . I do not see them dropping many pointsand theya re odds on to be champions .McLaren has done a great but will move on along with Stoich N'kufo and riaz ie all his attack . And next season they will finish half way .

We have to keep winning to finish 2nd in my eyes .

[Orange14]

Regardless of what we do, the magic point total is nine. If they reach that, they are the champions. I know McClaren is being mentioned for the West Ham position but that is probably contingent on them staying up. I suspect if he does go back to England he wants it to be with a top flight club. One wonders whether Rafa Benitez has outlived his stay at Liverpool. I can't see any of the other top club managers leaving at this point.

[Orange14]

Our loanee to Willem, Jan-Arie van der Heijden takes down Bakkal (I think it was him as I just tuned in) inside the box. Penalty is given and that's how it ends up 0:1. Standings are the same as last week with us one up on PSV and down four to Twente.

[Kowalczyk]

De Graafschap beat Go Ahead Eagles and are officially the champions of the Dutch Jupiler League (a.k.a. First Division). They return to the Eredivisie next season. Congrats.

Ko .

How many teams will not be in that div next season ?

Haarlem of course
Omniworld ,to be renamed Almere City

BUT MVV and Veendam are both in danger of going out of business .

Finally one team still goes out of the league. Oss, Sittard and Telstar seperated at the bottom by 2points with 3 games to .

Why is one team going to be relegated when Haarlem have folded??

[Kowalczyk]

I think no team will be relegated this season because Haarlem have gone out of business... Not 100% sure, tho. But I think I read that somewhere.

From what I've read MVV will probably survive, but it looks very bad indeed for Veendam (an old club, by the way: founded in 1894).

K.

[SPL]

In the first div I read the bottom 3 are fighting relegation with 2games to

Sittard have 30 points
Telstar 28
Oss 28

Oss are home to Telstar next week so who ever loses that game are going to finish bottom and maybe be out of the league .

Of much more impotance is will Twente drop points tonight . Wouldn't it be better if all the top 3 could play at the same time.

Nope, didn't happen. McClaren has them chomping on the bit and the won 2:0. Just need six more points to win it all. It's not over yet but if they draw with AZ, I think it is as they will likely beat Feyenoord at home.

[SPL]

Cannot see them losing the top spot. Ajax must keep on winning and at least make 2nd place.

If we're gonna win all 4 our games, there's actually not a big difference if Twente lose or draw against AZ, coz that means that we will be champions if they get another draw against Feyenoord or NAC.

[Philippe]

I'm confident the AZ game will cost points to Twente. But it will not be enough for Ajax to leapfrog them.
We'll need feyenoord to do something worthy, and that one does not sound good...
