Mark added 10:42 - Apr 29 Great. Let's take a close look at some of these Dutch players in these matches and as part of a wider scouting campaign. It's been too long since we've had a Dutch player in the team!

BehindBlueEyes added 11:10 - Apr 29 Excellent, will be there for both games. Agree Mark, there are plenty of decent players here and I'll now start watching the last few games of Eindhoven and Den Bosch to see if there are any gems for us to pick up!
