Eredivisie 2013-2014. Matchday 3.

A very early Classic, this season! Kick-off time at the ArenA is 12:30 CET.

It's Crete, right? Hopefully Xania and not Irakleion.

[Cruijff]

I guess you will always need Irakleion to land your plane on Crete.

And perhaps Ian only changed his location because he is on vacation in Greece for a week!

[aveslacker]

When I lived in Athens, I lived on Agiou Nikolaou street.

Good memories.

[souras84]

When did you live in Greece? Was it during the "Golden Years"?

[Orange14]

The time of Alexander the Great???

[souras84]

The Golden Era was actually the time Pericles was the Athenian General. But we usually refer to the years between 1981-2004. The years the whole Greek Crisis was built and which we are suffering now

[saddlerian]

Sorry lads. it's a permanent move. Got a lovely new wife, nice apartment only 100m from the lake in Ag Nik....I'll be over for a couple of games this season but, had to choose between life in UK and watching most games in Amdam, or relaxing life in Crete, new wife and watching all of the games live on tv, except those I "blag" my way .....

Still a seasoncard holder, always will be......it's always available..!!

[souras84]

Crete is lovely all year long. Enjoy your new life!

The time of Alexander the Great???

That's funny on a number of levels, not least of which because my name is Alexander.

I lived there from 2003 - 2005, so I was there during the Olympics and Euro 04. I also consider them golden years personally because my oldest son was born there (in Mytera hospital in Maroussi) and I had an unbelievably fantastic time there.

We lived in Glyfada with a view of the Mediterranean from our flat. about a five-minute walk from the plateia.

Sigh ...

[aveslacker]

Crete is lovely all year long. Enjoy your new life!

But seriously. Move to Xania. One of my favorite places in Greece.

[souras84]

Yes, you're right Alexander. They were great years! And of course Glyfada is one of the best places in Athens. Good times...

[saddlerian]

Gentlemen, please....to clarify everything, I'm in Agios Nikolaos, Crete...but less of memories of Greece and back to the task in hand.....the demolition of Feyenoord on Sunday!!!

It's great to be here, but on Sunday, I'd rather be there in the Arena....I will be there in heart, and I'll be watching and contributing online...

See you then!!

[saddlerian]

GOD!!!! Wish I'd paid more attention to the start time!!! Always been 11:30 for the years that I've been watching the games in Amsterdam.....changed to 12:30, leaving me stuck in this bar for an hour before KO.....still, beer's ok....good old Harry's Bar!!!

The money's down....a win will provide our meals for the month

[Orange14]

Sopcast channel 143535 looks pretty good. Commentary is in Russian

[SE6Ajacied]

Bet 365 for me. Screen is very small but clear stream and English commentary. (Hello everybody btw - haven't posted here for a while....)

[Orange14]

Well that was pretty bad.

[ofey]

Well that suxs... .
6 mins in and F**kers have scored.

Pelle.

[SE6Ajacied]

Back to the old old days - F word have gone there with their sponsor as well I see - Opel again....

[Tom_]

Pretty lame defending, and a mistake from Vermeer... not sure Pelle even got a shot away after his mis-controlled first touch.

[ofey]

We're playing very poorly at the moment.
Lots of square balls with no real movement forward.

Ligeon looks ok at right back though.

[ofey]

1-1

Siggi from the spot!

Loads of gamesmenship from the F**kers before the penalty.

Edit: Suddenly the bookings are starting to rise.
OK people quick bet, I suspect there will be a red card somewhere in this match.
