GNU_Linux Posted May 7, 2019 Share Posted May 7, 2019 Ajax won the KNVB Beker seeing off Willem II comfortably 4-0. As a result AZ look likely to grab a Europa League spot as they sit 4th (5 ahead of Utrecht with 2 to play). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GNU_Linux Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 https://www.vi.nl/nieuws/vanaf-volgend-seizoen-degraderen-twee-clubs-rechtstreeks-uit-eredivisieAutomatic relegation from Eredivsie increasing to two spots from the current one.Other changes: - TV money will be more evenly shared: From a ratio of 1:5,4 to 1:4,8. Clubs playing in Europe will have to share some of their earnings with the rest of the league. In the group stages it will be 5% and the knockouts it will be 3,75%. This money will predominantly go to clubs playing on natural grass, as an incentive for teams that play on artificial grass to make the switch. - Clubs that have qualified for European competitions will enter the KNVB Beker from the last 32 round. These matches will be played after the group stages of the European competitions have finished. - There will be more flexibility when it comes to the determination of match days, and start times to give teams playing in Europe enough rest in between matches. - Clubs with a youth academy with an international status have formed a gentleman’s agreement not to poach each others’ youngsters. - 15% of the solidarity payments the Eredivisie clubs get from UEFA will be given to the clubs in the 2nd division. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchBorderer Posted May 22, 2019 Share Posted May 22, 2019 Excelsior are down, a 1 all versus RKC fails to overturn their earlier 1-2 loss. RKC will now square off with Go Ahead Eagles, who sneakily got past FC Den Bosch. I loathe Go Ahead Eagles and Sparta Rotterdam (who are in the other half of the play-offs) - nightmare scenario for me if both of them get promoted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way did I think they'd claw back a win. Still, fearing the worst. Hoping Tuesday will perk up 18/19 just a little for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marten Posted May 28, 2019 Author Share Posted May 28, 2019 Well, @DutchBordererwill be happy. In the 89th minute Go Ahead Eagles looked like getting promoted by taking a 4-3 lead, after first coming back from 0-2 down to 3-2 and then conceding again. Yet in the 95th minute RKC scored and they would be promoted on away goals, followed by another RKC goal in the 97th minute to give them a 4-5 aggregate win. What a finish... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DutchBorderer Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 As Marten said, I am quite pleased with RKC's win in what was the single craziest match I have ever seen. Going from Heaven to Hell to Heaven to Hell and so on. If you have the means to watch it somewhere, you owe it to yourself to give it a look. What a game. Conversely, I am desperately disappointed by de Graafschap's failure to shake off Sparta after recording a 1-2 away win. I loathe Sparta and its fans, so it's rather painful to see them promoted. Really stimmied the pleasure I derived from the Go Ahead - RKC match. Here's hoping that entitled shower of c***s go straight back down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted May 29, 2019 Share Posted May 29, 2019 Why don’t you like Sparta or Go Ahead? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I grew up rather close to Deventer, and I can't name a single fan of Go Ahead who isn't a complete and utter twat (and I am fully aware of the irony encompassed by that statement). The fanbase in general also has a propensity for shitty behaviour, but then that may be my local bias. Sparta is artificially kept alive by a handful of businessmen and the club and fans alike have the worst entitlement issues in world football, in addition to being ridiculously arrogant. There is no equivalent to them in Scottish football, but if I had to give an example, Sparta would be like Dumbarton if the Sons demanded a fixed spot in the Premiership based on their century old league titles and called every team outside of West Dunbartonshire useless diddy farmers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
