what an intelligent statement. Other than the "we should take out chavez" comment what do you know about him?
I know that he is a witch that should burned at the stake.

Seriously, I don't think he's a witch, but if someone burned his ass it would be fine with me.

Erik, the post I made under Burke's account days ago was not meant to be taken seriously and I hope I did not offend you by my joking comments. I know the picture is not very flattering as I indeed look like a drunken hobo with my wasted facial expression and perhaps ugly Azzurri warmup...hopefully I will obtain the Nederland jacket in the upcoming weeks to edge myself a bit further on your radar screen. However, unfortunately, I think you are out of my league my friend. :down:
Oh but I don't aim *too* high. Quantity over quality remember :D

Are you joking? the picture in my avatar is awesome and I wish it were bigger
Has a certain type of coolness yeah; like the pictures I always take with friends where we try to look as ugly as possible or pictures taken when someone's jumping and hanging halfway in the air and shit :D

Well, I don't know whether to jump for joy or rethink my gameplan. ;)

Erik, I hope your buddy Van Basten is not planning on using Vlaar and Opdam as the central back pairing this summer...I thought they were absolutely awful against the Azzurri on Saturday. If you lot can build a solid back four before this summer we could be in for a surprise with all the attacking options at your disposal...hopefully van der Vaart will capture the same form for HSV this summer in Germany. Apart from Italy and the United States, of course, I hope the Nederlands goes far in Germany...much rather see orange lift the Cup rather than those overrated English or loathsome Brazilians. That's for sure...

Well if that's the case, which I hope it is, all we have to worry about is the host nation Germany progressing through to the Final...in some ways I would rather see England there than Zee Germans. You know what a great Final would be? Nederlands vs. Italia would be a dream come true, of course after the States reaching the Final which is pretty much out of the question.

Andy, the hardest thing to do in a world cup is to make it out of the group stages
I don't exactly agree with that...in my opinion the toughest match is always the next one, and considering the groups all vary in quality there can be some easier matchups for some nations out there, such as Germany's group in the last World Cup in which they mauled Saudi Arabia.

Quote of the day: "One day I was looking at forum and saw picture of beautiful girl. That girl was so beautiful I thought wow I would like to have her she is hot. Then I kept scrolling down page looking at woman and I see De Cock sitting right there. I became very confused and felt the weird. Then I see Padovano posted picture, and thought everything is alright because Pado is the man."

We're not reaching the final, we don't have what it takes. Our defence will be what it has always been; made up from defenders who are too attacking-minded to be good enough for world cups or european cups because that's how the Dutch school trains defenders. You can't play attacking football and defend very tightly at the same time. As always, the official FA line is that the tournament has been a success when we reach the Quarter Finals and I share that notion.

Seven, despite our disagreements with each other in the past I think I deserve a bit more credit from you. We all have our favorite members on this board and follow certain "clicks" as if we were still in high school...unfortunately this is only part of human nature as we all want to feel a sense of belonging. During my two week hiatus from this forum I have indeed missed conversing with some people on this forum on topics involving football, however, I must say I have not missed the quarrels between us in recent months and the persistent slanging match we have come accustomed to...I am sure 99% of this forum has not missed these counterproductive posts either.

Correct me if I'm wrong, however did I not vouch for you when your existence on this forum was on the line? I could have easily lobbied to the moderators my former stance that you should have been banned for good, however I backed you up not because I like you, but because I feel you have something to add to this forum. Correct me if I'm wrong, however while you were making your case for your own reinstatement I remember you mentioning how you come to this forum partly to see my post-match reports, among other things. Now please don't tell us you like to read the match reports of utter morons...

All in all, I would like this piss-balloon-throwing match to end because in reality the whole thing is redundant...nobody wants to see us insulting each other time and time again. To this effect, I want to apologize to you for my comments about Belgium...how I jokingly stated the country doesn't exist and how I used the word waffles to refer to you lot. It was all in retaliation for your actions on this forum in which I thought your comments about various topics involving America were totally classless and uncalled for. The verdict is perhaps still out on your intentions, however I apologize for my comments in retaliation. You were certainly in the wrong here, however the same can be said about me for retaliating. Hopefully we can put this past us, however for some reason I have my doubts...the line has to be drawn somewhere.


And before you lot say "haha I told you so, he's back already" hold up for a sec...since I had to drop calculus, along with more than 70% of my fellow peers of the class, I suddenly had more time on my hands because that class took up the majority of my studies, along with chemistry which is going very well at the moment. I have been away for about two weeks, however the hiatus doesn't seem like two weeks at all...now whether that is a good thing or bad thing, I really don't know...I suppose it's good to be back nonetheless.
First of all, I would have lobbied for your return as well. I don't care whether or not I like you, it's obvious you have your place on this forum.

And you know I don't think you're a moron in everything you do. It's fairly obvious you do know something about football, but then again your more objective than thou-attitude also gets annoying.

I didn't have the intent to continue our slanging match either. What I said to Fabiana was mostly in order to show her I wasn't being objective in this categorisation thing at all.

Agreed, you're not reaching the final.
