[olddutch]

Come on .....Holland, the Netherlands and even the Dutch today

and...

Andy Murray as well ?

[Marijn]

Thanks Quizmonster. Do you know what will happen if it's a draw today?

[AB Editor]

Holland are always worth watching. This is why (in the old days at least)


Spare Ed

P.S. please ignore the silly soundtrack to the video.

Holland are capable of beating anyone on their day.

[Quizmonster]

I'm afraid not, Notafish. I lost interest in football when, in Britain, it ceased to be a game and became part of Rupert Murdoch's show-biz empire.
I will, of course, NEVER forget Gemmill's goal, Old Dutch, and I DO hope Murray wins today, as it would be a pity if he became just a never-quite-made-it clone of Henman!

[ChuckFickens]

I agree ed, Holland are always worth watching.....

"Holland are capable of beating anyone on their day"

Akinator - you are now nearly half a dutchman too !

[Marijn]

Thanks for answering, Quizmonster. I've found out that if it's a draw, they get 30 mins extra time. If they don't score in that time, it will go to penalties.

"as it would be a pity if he became just a never-quite-made-it clone of Henman!"

Be nice about our tiger tim,Quizmonster - remember poor old Colin Montgomery and the play offs

[Akinator]

To balance things up old dutch

Brazil are capable of beating anyone, on their day.

BUT whos day is it today?

[Quizmonster]

I thought it best to stick with the same sport, OD. Had Murray been playing in The Open rather than at Wimbledon, I might well have mentioned Montgomerie.

[olddutch]

"To balance things up old dutch" - Akinator, no balancing, no wavering - just lots of praying for Holland !

[olddutch]

Quizmonster - you're allowed any sports comparisons today - pick n mix ok in this thread !

[R1Geezer]

well I haven't actually put any dosh on because I don't want to kybosh em. I suppose on that basis I should go and put a fiver on Brazil!

[olddutch]

"well I haven't actually put any dosh on because I don't want to kybosh em."

peculiar that Geezer - i sometimes think that even watching whoever im supporting does that - sloppy superstition maybe ?

[Gromit]

£4 on Holland to win (so far I've lost £40 betting on England results)

[ELVIS68]

Not betting on the football today, I`ve had all my money on Nadal

[olddutch]

" £4 on Holland to win"

Gromit - just to show how confident i am, I've had £1 on Holland - £1 each way that is !


"I`ve had all my money on Nadal" Elvis - i've done that before - put money on opposition - so if you lose you still win ?

[ELVIS68]

Nadal is not opposition, not to me anyway

[olddutch]

"Nadal is not opposition, not to me anyway" -

Sorry Elvis - forgetting you were "Born In The USA" - Spanish Harlem maybe - or is Harlem in Holland ?

[Marijn]

Old Dutch, if it stays as it is now, your dream will be right! Please
