NEC is a big club in holland, normally around 14,000 people I think in the stadium. They have a very fanatic supporters crowd.

It should be a nice game to watch - and a pleasent stay in the stadium....... De Goffert

For intertoto I think maybe a crowd of 8,000

What times for the way home?

Hey NEC,
Can you confirm that Youssouf Hersi was sold to Herenveen? Can you also confirm that Polish International Striker Andrzej Niedzielan will be out injured and probably won't be fit for the City games?

Who are your best players and what positions do they play in?

Yes, ik can confirm both. But for Hersi we got a simular player, said Boutahar. Our problem is with te strikers (we've got only one at the moment) but we can trust our solid goalkeeper which in my eyes is the best in Holland at the moment.

Can you tell me where you got this player ( Said Boutahar ) from? Was it another Dutch club?

**Shelsman** · 29/06/2004, 8:07 AM

It's OK, I just looked him up. He spent last season on loan from Feyenoord to RKC Waalwijk. He is a left sided midfielder and scored 6 goals last season. He was supposedly a transfer target for Glasgow Rangers.

**NEC Nijmegen** · 01/07/2004, 2:02 PM

Ok, next problem

I think we are going with the brussels-shannon flight on sunday. Any suggestions for transportation from the airport to Cork?? The options which i found were very expensive en not so good...

Your best bet is to hire a car at the airport for however long you are going..it will save you when you drive back there too..

In that case the only way you'll make it to Turners Cross in time for kick off is if you hire a car.

Busses and Trains cannot be relied on when it's Sunday.
To make sure you'll see the game, you'll have to rent a car

**NEC Nijmegen** · 02/07/2004, 7:29 AM

In that case i think we fly in on saturday...

Thanks again!!

When you get to the airport, take the 747 bus to the central bus station for 5Euro.
From there you can get the Dublin to Cork bus.

It takes about 4.5 hours.
See you tomorrow.
