First match in the new year started with a great tribute to Heurelho Gomes. From PSV.nl:
Before the PSV-Heerenveen game was kicked off, the home fans in the west stand showed their undoubted loyalty and devotion to in-form goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes. They were waving cards in the colours of the flag of Brazil: yellow, green and […]

It’s been a while, but here I am again. Yesterday I had an amazing time at the Champions League match of PSV against Bordeaux. They lost, which luckily didn’t matter since PSV was already placed for the next round. What made it so special was that I wasn’t sitting on my regular seat… but in […]

Eindhoven was lucky enough to host the UEFA Cup final this year. Over 25 thousand supporters from Middlesbrough and Sevilla came over to view the match. We watched the match on the Stadhuisplein together with all the ’Boro’ fans that hadn’t been able to get a ticket. The Philips stadium was completely packed. I was […]

We left around two o’clock with the first series of buses. It was quite a fun sight to see nearly 60 buses escorted by the police from Eindhoven to Rotterdam. When we got there, PSV had arranged a stage where the ‘SRV Mannen’ and the ‘Band Zonder Banaan‘ performed a few songs. I had never […]

Last Sunday was exactly 10 years since my boss registered his company, Japak Packing & Mailing (site made by me), with the Chamber of Commerce. Of course such a memorable day couldn’t go unnoticed, and there was a party to celebrate it. On Saterday a few of us had already transformed the main work area […]

Sometimes journalists can get a bit carried away in there descriptions. At a certain point it doesn’t look like a news article anymore but more like poetry. On my way to work this morning I came across a piece of genuine newspaper poetry. Last Saturday PSV beat AZ with 3 to 0. A great result, […]

Thank God it’s friday. It’s been a hectic week, filled with good, bad and terrible news. First the good news… "I’ve moved". Last sunday I borrowed the Japak bus, and together with some friends we had a great time trying to fit too big furniture through a too small door opening.
The bad news is that […]

After a 1-1 draw against Olympique Lyonnais in the away match, the result after 90 minutes of play in Eindhoven was also 1-1. The match was finaly decided by penalties. Gomez stopped two penalties and then Robert was allowed […]

On the 5th of December I flew to Athens with a group of friends to watch the Champions League match between Panathinaikos and PSV. We made a short holiday of the trip, and had a great time in Athens. Unfortunately PSV lost big time, but since they allready were into the next round of the […]

After eight years of trying, PSV has finally reached the second round of the UEFA Champions League. Thanks to the 2-2 draw between Rosenborg and Panathinaikos, the 1-1 draw against Arsenal was sufficient to continue to the next round. Can’t wait to go the Greece in two weeks, since we don’t have to worry about […]
