RE: More findings from the Treasure Trove

Precious memories indeed my friend.

That was an achievement to qualify with teams such as Holland (my supporting team). However, I am not sure what the Dutch ratings were in football back then, because I've only been following them since 2007.

Oh the Dutch were shit hot back then!! Gullit, Rijkaard, Winters, the Koeman brothers, Van Basten. They were formidable and were knocked out by eventual winners West Germany 2-1.

I never knew Jamaicans shouted for Brazil so much! Interesting... Ye have qualified a few times yourselves too, which must have been great excitement.

Ok, coolio! That's great to know.

I enjoyed watching UEFA games at the pubs when I lived there. The atmosphere was lit!

There are many Turkish people in the Netherlands, and whenever the Turks win, the entire town is locked down. It was a motorcade of loud horns, and people celebrating in the streets.

My Dutch girlfriend had the hots for Turkish guys and she was in heaven on such days 😆😁

Yeah, but the Reggae Boys never get very far - too my 'stars' in one game, and they forget that it's a team effort 😏
