Yeah, we can hope. I can't believe that you've never won a major tournament. The '74 and '78 World Cup teams have got to be two of the best of all time.DutchRush wrote:Congrats ! Slaine....Rooney eh ? great show....I hope we'll meet each other in the finals....
Europe and Holland are into soccer now...

Oh ! but we did Slaine....forgotten about the Euro '88 championships ?
It's already soooo long ago again, but that was the great Marco van Basten and Rudy (The Rastafara) Gullit show...We should have won in '74 though...but this was just the game where Johan Cruyff didn't felt like "really" playing for it...And when we come to talk about '78...well...I wonder if "we" had ever left the that freaking country (Argentina) alive again...This worldchampionship was severely bought of by Argentina. That was a Worldchampionships Tournament that never should have took place in the first place...
While the teams were playing, meanwhile the millitary Junta murdered their political opponents or make them dissapear...If Holland had won that game by any accident, all hell would have broke loose...

No ! ....our Royal Prince here has even married one..an Argentinian girl that is...And rumours go that his heart was stolen by her as well....So you're right about them never winning anything fairly 
The only things she has learned well is to master our language in a liitle bit more than a year...and to spend his money, haha..

Well..what he did say was..oh ! my God dear Maxima, ..WHAT a hand ! But if it really was, like Maradonna claimed, God's hand ?!? Besides...By that time 'ole little Diego was already an addict if you ask me...he wasn't intending to touch the ball..when he jumped up, the XTC pill popped out of his mouth and he was grasping to ged it back...accidently hitted the ball...and the rest of the story is history...
Oh ! easy B...I will start a Revolution here....roll them tanks in...take over the government...make new rules...feed the poor...save the children...make pets live under better conditions...take better care for the disabled...etc etc...and then ? I invite you over...we marry and then we will live long and very happy ever after...good plan or what ?
Oh shit ! there goes my alarm clock..arghhh !!!!...just when I was dreaming all these nice dreams...*sigh !
