I was actually hoping we'd get Germany. First of all because they're a pretty crappy team and second, because last time when we missed Japan/Korea someone overthere made a song called "ohne Holland fahren wir nach's WM", which actually became a nr.1 hit in Germany. It's payback time.

Those two well known Frenchmen Sol Campbell and Ashley Cole are going to be very busy then!

Bad luck for Holland - still they got in by the back door any way, an early exit is only fair.

That means Denmark's victory in the EC in 1992 is unjust as well, doesn't it Donut? They only made it to the championships because Yugoslavia was banned out for being in a civil war. I see no reason why the Netherlands should be kicked out early, just because they failed to qualify at once.

[/QUOTE]Only fair ? Man, we're just beginning. The coach finally realised that certain players were no longer needed, and that it was time to make some drastic changes. It paid off against the Scots. This team can go all the way next year.

It's kinda mild here as well. Last year around this time it was freezing and IIRC snow had already fallen as well. But I like it hot weather better than cold anyway [img]smile.gif[/img]
