That (and the last game they played against Portugal) is one of the things I do not want to see a repeat of. Okay, Völler's hairdo was maybe something to spit at, but no, you do not do those things. Not even in football. Thanks for reminding me, though ;-) @bganon: AARRGGH! That (and the last game they played against Portugal) is one of the things I do not want to see a repeat of.

It may be childish but I loved them ever since one Frank Rikkard / Rudi Voller incident many moons ago... Well, not really but I did enjoy it, but I do enjoy Dutch football.

I doubt Blokker has them in kiddy sizes, otherwise I might be tempted to buy them for my three little boys. And the British/Irish husband only watches sport if he can't avoid it, sight, so no takers there. I must admit that the fact that I allready hear songs on the radio about how wonderfull 1988 was doesn't radiate confidence in the Dutch team. If the Dutch fail I'll have to choose between the teams still there. LOL Guy, both at the shirt and the Swiss.
