I don't care where they get their money from, I'm good friends with 4 or 5 PSV fans and so they're the Dutch team I'd want to win above all else.Fredo Baggins
Tell me, what was it like to finish 5=3rd last season behind both Aj*x and the PSV Kings?? [/quote]
Hmmm....I can follow your thoughts. I have the same with a friend of mine who is absolutely mad of his team: Hull City AFC; and so my 7 months old son is wearing the Hull City shirt as well!!
The 3=5 finish....
You're talking about the play-offs...
The worst thing ever invented in the Dutch Eredivisie!!
For myself I don't agree with the Champions League anyway: If you let teams which finished 4th in their own league enter for a tournament which is called the "champions" league, you don't really get it...
It should be a tournament for champions only, and not a tournament in which you want to see all the big clubs. Then you have to name it differently...
Only 1 team really lost in the play offs: AZ Alkmaar.
They finished 2nd in the table, and are only playing UEFA cup football now.
So you can ruine your complete season, play 4 games good at the end of the season and still go into the Champions League. Ridiculous!! (And yes, I would have said the same when Feyenoord had gone to the CL because of winning the playoffs!!
