    Post it I'll check it for you.

    What I said was Heb je daar wel kaas van gegeten.

    Have you eaten cheese from that. It is a Dutch saying, it is a question meaning; Do you have knowledge about that subject.

    Why do you like it so much? Why does it look cool?

    I don't know...it just looks cool, lol. Like the words and stuff, the spelling, all the people with last names Van Something :D it's just...COOL! :p haha. I would learn it...but it seems a bit hard to do :o



    This is what I have:

    No that is Dutch. Small country with business and adventure at heart.We sailed the seas to trade and he who trades needs to speak. I only speak Dutch and English, but in school you can do and for some have to do. Franch, German, English, Latin, Spanish, Griek.

    Still it is very good that he does speak 4 langueges, quite an achievement.

    I wish I could speak a lot of languages.

    I plan on learning Italian, French, and Portuguese. Mainly because they're the easiest ones for me, since they're similar to Spanish.

    German and Dutch I would like to learn, but I don't know if I'll be able to. I'm gonna have to study and practice A LOT in order to learn the languages. But who knows, maybe with a lot of effort, I ended up speaking them fairly well! :p

    The G is the hardest thing and the spelling changes so often it is insane.

    Here goes; I would like to come together.
    Not the hardest to translate it is pretty much the same. The position of the words quite often you have to switch them around to get anywhere near a grammatically correct sentence.

    Hey, why are there Premiership matches here in the middle of the week? Is this a common occurrence? I thought that matches took place on weekends. I play in the I Know The Score competition on PremierLeague.com and almost missed my picks yesterday. I went to ESPN.com to see what time the Liverpool Champions League Qualifier was, and just happened to scroll down to see two matches on the schedule.

    So they did actually come for Mathijssen. HSV offered 6 million for him. I don't know how long his contract still is, but 6 million is a joke.

    I do think the EUFA should do something about this last minute shopping. The season has already begun and clubs still don't know how the selection will look like. Ooijer and Vennegoor, Boulahrouz, Kuijt, and now Mathijssen and it also works on down. Utrecht losses Tiendalli. I hate this. I realize clubs like HSV have to wait until the Champions league shot is save. Still this is unfair. The big clubs from the big leagues do what they want and the rest should follow. Chelsea can buy Boulahrouz and Real can buy Diarra, player that are ready from the word go. HSV, Feyenoord, PSV, Celtic, Porto they can't afford players that are a sure thing. AZ can't get a defender with the same skill for 6 million. They have to buy a player that is less good but has the potential to grow. I think this has an element of unfair play.

    Maybe the qualification could take place at the end of the season, but that would cause problems with the world cup. Still something has to be done.


    it´s not fair but what should we do ...come on the bigger clubs sold out our whole good workin deffence and the transfermarket ain´t close yet but very soon so we made it fast.by the way why is 6 million a joke? and by the way contract for 4 years .and until next week we buy two more players .
    anyways bad news for us:atuba is maybe a element of uncertainty:(:(


    it´s normal that bigger clubs bit for players of a smaller club that´s normal

    He was player of the year in Portugal and a lot of people expected him to go to the world cup, Scolari left him out and so he played the under 21 Europaen championship. He has a good pass, cross and freekick.


    sounds good:D

    You didn't read it close enough.

    A. I meantioned Boulahrouz
    B. I didn't say it was bad that big clubs buy good players.

    What I did say was that the time is wrong. The transfer window can't be open now the Competition has started and small clubs gat hurt because they can't replace a player on such sort notice.

    Van Buyten has been bought quite some time ago. This gave HSV the time to look for a new player. Boulahrouz goes when you already are in the season. That is my point. It is unfair to smaller countries and smaller clubs.

    ubs ...sorry of course it wasn´t fair and the clubs i will hate forever are Bayern Munic and Chelsea
    bec. VB wasn´t that good when he came to us but we build him and than well they both him but he want to so good buy..
    and about boula it wasn´t fair for sure but the transfer is open i think til thuersday next week ...and i think the talking with matjisen has been longer or maybe the watching but i might be wrong
    bec. boula and him has the same adviser ...

    and of course this politics aren´t nice but bayern munic or other bigger clubs do that most of the time
