I'm sure the TWTD block vote might help swing it for Frans on 09:59 - Jul 23 by Pinewoodblue | Public votes account for 50%, a panel of experts account for the rest. It is the inly way to see a ‘fair’ result. As Boris would say “trust the experts” |
I was disappointed that Darcey Bussel wasn't on the panel. |  |

Wie is de beste Gelderse voetballer aller tijden? Simon Tahamata 38.12% (4,615 stemmen) Frans Thijssen 16.44% (1,990 stemmen) Klaas Jan Huntelaar 15.58% (1,886 stemmen) Marc Overmars 8.98% (1,087 stemmen) Theo Janssen 6.39% (773 stemmen) Roy Makaay 5.44% (658 stemmen) Jan Peters 3.75% (454 stemmen) Jasper Cillessen 2.5% (303 stemmen) Ernie Brandts 1.01% (122 stemmen) Dick Schoenaker 1.01% (122 stemmen) Pauke Meijers 0.78% (96 stemmen) Totaal aantal stemmen: 12,106 Tahamata over 2,000 votes ahead now, so I don't think there's any coming back for Frans now, at least in the public part of the vote :( Am also disappointed with the translation of 'Gelderse', as I'd been looking forward to using it as one of my top 10 people insults :( |  |

I'm sure the TWTD block vote might help swing it for Frans on 23:39 - Jul 22 by Sarge | Granted I wasn’t born when Thijssen played and know nothing of his style but Huntelaar is one of the great strikers of this century. He’s played for some of the biggest clubs in the land and his goalscoring ratio varies between good and outrageous. This will be a controversial opinion without doubt but I’ve watched a few games from the 70s and 80s and the quality of football.....it doesn’t seem that great. |
"This will be a controversial opinion without doubt but I’ve watched a few games from the 70s and 80s and the quality of football.....it doesn’t seem that great." Not controversial. Flippin' fantastic! Is it your own time machine or did you borrow it? To be honest though, if I had use of a time machine I probably wouldn't use it to go back and watch football matches, but then again I saw Ipswich play in the 70s and 80s, so I have no need. Did you also go forward in time, or did you just stop in the "Year of perfect football, 2020?" |  | |  |

I'm sure the TWTD block vote might help swing it for Frans on 00:28 - Jul 23 by The_Last_Baron | Football wasn't as athletic back then or as quick but in my view it was a better game, more cut and thrust, better technical players and it was far tougher. Thijssen was a world class player, only behind Beattie and Wark in Town's history. |
Tougher ok but better technical players? What are you smoking? |  | |  |

And he acknowledged out input "It is nice for Simon that such a community is very close that even people who vote for him who have nothing to do with football I myself also got some votes from Ipswich" |  |

There's an implication there that Ipswich has nothing to do with football. He's not wrong. |  |

Yay - right result for a truly great footballer, even more a top man now in my book with this quote from him following the result - "I don't like to talk about myself, I am not like Louis van Gaal and José Mourinho." And from Edward Sturing, his former colleague at Vitesse - "if he had played at Ajax or Feyenoord, he could have done it with two fingers in his nose." Cheers for alerting us Phil 👠And I'm also going to appropriate from the poll the word 'Gelderse' as a description of certain people, no matter what the official translation says :) |  |
