I’ve been told that Rotterdam is a nice place. All I have ever seen of it is a giant oil refinery, with a container port attached, connected by a traffic jam. Oh, I did stay at a hotel there once which one of my colleagues called the Rottendump.

Lots of the Netherlands is lovely, but I’ve never really been taken with Holland.

Not interested at all to see the kind of football we have been served with in the last times. There is absolutely no sign that this game will be different from the previous ones, so I’ll swerve it as I’ve better things to do with my time. If that makes me a plastic fan, then so be it.

Yep! I just want a neat bow to be wrapped on this dog turd of a season so we can draw a line under it and move on, with renewed hope under a new manager.

If it is a long drawn out thing and Slot starts next season in the hot seat, my concern is he won’t get the reset he needs from fans, who will have all the ‘previous’ of the last twelve months or so. So the pressure will intensify, and any bad result or iffy display will be magnified … giving us an unpleasant few months and a sacking by Christmas.

Or he gets a reprieve and kicks on, challenging strongly for the biggest prizes next term. It would demonstrate that this season was an anomaly, due to lots of mitigating circumstances, and show that Slot’s bosses are in fact serious professionals who very much made the right call, even in the face of a lot of pressure to do otherwise.

I know which scenario looks more likely. Hence I’m hoping for a clean break very soon. I don’t want to see another season go by the wayside, when we can regroup and go again under a new man.

Spent a week there once in one of those tall buildings in the city centre that some Irish lads were squatting. I can honestly say that it’s one of the dodgiest places I’ve ever been to. Much worse than Amsterdam.

I can see a copy of the last four so a loss here and draw at home final day.

Might be not enough.
