A job?

What - on a burger stand?

There are that many bars in Amsterdam, it will be hard to arrange that. However, I think we'll head to a bar near the station at dinner then go up to Rotterdam on the train for 2/3 ish.

This is a good bar in Amsterdam: http://www.stonescafe.nl/

Goal of the season: TUUUGAAAYYYYY

This got me excited: -

The tie will see Rovers take their biggest following ever, away in Europe.

Yeah I saw something him in - he was marking Rooney for Englands first goal....

Who scored again?

Oh , Rooney

Best performer? he is slow and makes too many mistakes

How many pens has he given away again? I make it FOUR

LOL forgot about Emerton

I'd drop Ooijer

Rovers have no tickets left for Feyenoord, a number of extra tickets were secured from the Dutch side but these have been used to satisfy existing demand

Anyone on the 6:15am from Liverpool on Weds?

Coming back at 9:55pm Friday

Text alert just arrived from BRFC:

Rovers should welcome back Robbie Savage for Sunday's game against Spurs but will be without Neill (hamstring) and Zurab (suspended). Gamst Pedersen is also a doubt

Probable team then....

----------------------------------------FRIEDEL----------------------------------------

----------- OOIJER-----HENCHOZ--------TODD--------GRAY-----------

-----------BENTLEY-----SAVAGE-------- TUGAY--------PETER -----------

-----------------------------NONDA--------McCARTHY----------------------------

Forget the Uefa Cup; the CANNABIS CUP is on in Amsterdam next week:

Oooh I cant wait to be on the space cake and a few smokes of the old wacky backy.

I'm not particular looking forward to seeing 6 x Andre Ooijer's though

Maybe the police shouldnt have put anything in the Feyenoord leaflet warning of the potential dangers over there....

I'm scared now and wont go.

Is it on Eurosport?

I'm not trying to put the fear of God into anyone. These stories dont scare me whatsoever. I'm just posing FACTUAL stories of past experiences on there.

I thought it would be a nice change to warn people of what it could be like over there rather than...

''Is it on Eurosport''

''What kit are we playing in''

''Is it on Eurosport''

''Just rung ticket office to see where my ticket is''

''Still not received my ticket''

''Is it on Eurosport''

''How many tickets have we got''

''Is it on Eurosport''

''Just got my ticket''

''Is it on Eurosport''

''Its sold out, is it on Eurosport''

I know a Hearts fan (customer) who went 2 years ago and his stories were very similar.

from bbc.co.uk;

Feyenoord v Rangers 2001/2002

Insanity from Rotterdam

BBC Scotland football pundit Chick Young says that some Rangers fans came away from Rotterdam fearing for their lives.

It's time match tickets started carrying government warnings. Watching football can seriously damage your health.

Even certain big hard men from Glasgow I happen to know by reputation went a whiter shade of pale at the sight of the maniacs who wear the colours of Feyenoord and who threatened GBH with the kind of smile that made you think initially that they were offering afternoon tea and scones.

Forget the Turks and their welcomes to Hell. Never mind London boot boys.

The fans of the Rotterdam club are insane. Lunatics of a dark and dangerous nature who would slap their grannies about.

Certain sections of the Rangers support are far from angels and one or two still struggle to have an IQ higher than their neck measurement.

But, despite the fact that the Ibrox club had just 2,000 tickets to dispense among around 7,000 fans who made the trip to Holland, most of them refused to take the bait and there were only minor battles where there could have been outright war.

Yet, what concerns me most is the disgraceful treatment of decent Rangers fans who made the trip with tickets distributed by the club and who were rounded up like cattle, ferried in buses they did not want to be in, trapped in holding pens and treated like they were the aforementioned thugs.

Fans in the corporate hospitality area, where there was not a steward in sight, were threatened, assaulted and generally felt to feel like their very lives were in danger.

And, immediately behind the area where I was sitting in the De Kuip Stadium, four Rangers fans were forced to leap for their lives into the moat to get away from drink-fired maniacs.

My highly-privileged position was 10 feet from Alex McLeish and his bench, virtually on the pitch from where I was broadcasting for the BBC. But, for a period, I could not watch the game for concern for the Rangers fans just across the moat.

That cannot be right and Uefa must not fail to mount an investigation into the affair.

On a previous occasion, a search of the admittedly wonderful stadium found a gun hidden in the rafters, placed there ahead of derby against the much-hated Ajax.

A gun! What the heck is going on? This is the club, remember, that was trying to conjur an Atlantic League alongside the Old Firm.

Thank the Lord that never happened.

Can you imagine Scottish fans having to visit Rotterdam twice a season? By comparison, a trip to Aberdeen for Rangers is a Sunday School picnic where they are welcomed with open arms.

Clearly there are decent supporters among the thousands who follow Feyenoord, but there is an alarmingly large section who are not wired to the real world. They are seriously disturbed actually.

Much of this lunacy was clearly fuelled by alcohol, which was on sale inside the stadium and it underlined for me - and I speak as a man who does enjoy a refreshment - that we must never in this country return to the days when you were allowed to take drink into the stadium or go in to one drunk.

Rangers must be stopped in their tracks in any bid to be allowed to sell drink inside Ibrox. I applaud the behaviour of their fans in Rotterdam, but angels can lose their wings after a few beers.

The ultimate sanction will be matches played in empty grounds and that punishment has been dealt out by Uefa for scenes less serious than what went on at Feyenoord last Thursday.

But maybe soon there will be a total ban on away fans.

And, for some of the supporters of Rangers who were inside the De Kuip stadium, the sooner the better

Got the Mirror this morning... says Dunn and Upson are leaving Birmingham in January. Upson for £4m and Dunn for £1m. I'd go for both players if we can afford it.

It should generate an electric atmosphere, loads of women and school kids screaming their heads off everytime Beckham takes a corner.

Then again, I scream now, when Zurab, Ooijer or Gray are passed the ball in defence!!!

There is not a chance he would sign for us. Its all paper talk. All Hughes has said was loads of clubs would be interested in signing him. I'm sure if Shevchenko or Rooney were available, we'd be interested in signing them. However, we dont have the money we used to have and the nearest player to Beckham we could REALISTICALLY sign is Ronnie Clayton, as he is now.

Also, no it wouldnt drastically increase our attendances. If we had signed a 17 year old Pele, there would still be Rovers fans saying its too expensive and watching it on Sky at home, or not at all.

THERE IS NOT A CHANCE HE WOULD SIGN FOR US.

He will definately go to Newcastle. Their fans our so passionate and the North East is a real hot bed of football blah blah blah blah.

Alternatively, he might have grown some sense over in Madrid and realised thats a load of B******* and he wants to see silverware other than the knife and fork drawer in the geordies canteen.

We had 5 first teamers out but there is no excuses for Gray being caught out of position every time and Mokoena f***** about with it when there are 2 players on you. Idiot!!

We need to sign some players and get our injured players back asap or we'll be in a relegation scrap.

Is the Tugay goal anywhere online yet??

Blackburn (from): Friedel, Brown, Neill, Emerton, Khizanishvili, Ooijer, Todd, Henchoz, Gray, McEveley, Bentley, Tugay, Mokoena, Peter, Pedersen, Nonda, McCarthy, Jeffers, Gallagher.

What a shame if we get to the final though .... all these Rovers fans who cant afford the ticket price. Oh well, never mind. I just hope its not raining.

Another example of Hughes playing players half fit and making them worse last night - Robbie Savage, who this morning, has been ruled out for a MONTH.

It's all very well and good blaming the weather, prices and tv. But - if we had played Burnley last night would there have only been 13k on? NO!

The weather, price and whether its on TV or not wouldnt come into it.
