Filip Kostic will be playing on familiar ground on Sunday. The PSV player will be representing Serbia against the Netherlands at the Philips Stadium and is confident about the match.

Kostic is impressed by the atmosphere and culture surrounding PSV. He also hopes that more of his compatriots will choose to play for the club in the future. ‘It’s great to be back here. I’ve seen a few of my team-mates and the stadium is magnificent. There’s a real culture here of always supporting the national team. I think the stadium will be packed and there’ll be a fantastic atmosphere,’ Kostic said at a press conference.

‘From the very first day I arrived here, people asked me about Mateja Kezman and Danko Lazovic. They made a great impression here and threw the doors wide open for all of us. I’ll try to follow in their footsteps, so that many Serbian players will play here in the future too.’

'This is without a doubt the best training programme and a fantastic springboard for young players. I would advise all our young players to come here. You learn everything here about professionalism and nutrition. Many players have built serious careers here, so you really can’t go wrong. That’s good for our national team and for Serbian football.'

Kostic expects Serbia to perform better on Sunday than they did a week ago. ‘I think we were better defensively against the Netherlands (than against Germany, ed.) and dropped deep. The Netherlands are a team who like to have possession. I think they’ll play with a different formation. I expect us to play a better match than we did against Germany.’

Er rijden dan nog steeds om het kwartier treinen van nijmegen naar arnhem maar die vervoeren vooral lucht..

Is het geen idee om sommige plekken een uur eerder te laten beginnen (in wenen beginnen de scholen al om 6.15-7.15) dan spreidt de drukte zich wat meer over de dag..

Want het zou zonde zijn als de vroege treinen niet meer rijden want als ik dan ver op reis moet dan moet ik al voor 7.30 in arnhem centraal zijn wat ik anders nooit haal want de bussen rijden dan nog niet.

SC Braga heeft dinsdagmiddag een nieuw bod voor Marcus Linday neergelegd bij sc Heerenveen. Het bod ter waarde van €6,5 miljoen werd door de club echter van tafel geveegd.

“The fans and the club are desperate for promotion,” says Roda’s new signing, Dyon Dorenbosch, quickly summing up the mood in Kerkrade. Promotion was not on the cards for Roda JC last season following a swift elimination by RKC Waalwijk in the play-offs. The new manager, Rob Penders, is set to turn that around.

"Roda is a club that hasn’t played in the Eredivisie for eight or nine years, so we want to get promoted," the manager begins. The 50-year-old manager intends to achieve this through attacking football and high pressing. Penders spent the last three seasons as assistant manager at FC Utrecht, having previously spent two seasons as head coach at FC Eindhoven.

At Utrecht, Penders worked closely with Ron Jans, from whom he learnt a great deal. “It was from Ron Jans that I realised it’s not just about tactics. It’s about mindset. It’s about enjoying training. That’s just as important.”

And there’s certainly no shortage of enthusiasm at Roda. “In my experience, everyone’s always keen in the first few weeks, but here it’s taken to the extreme,” says the manager with a broad smile. With the same broad smile, midfielder Dyon Dorenbosch – who made his debut for FC Eindhoven under Penders and joined Roda JC in June – talks about his bond with the manager.

"That’s when I made my breakthrough, and although I certainly didn’t always play my best matches back then, he always picked me for the team. That builds confidence. As a young lad, that’s really nice. Even during the years he was away, it was clear that he’d always believed in me. When he came here to Roda, a transfer wasn’t on the cards at first, but it happened in the end.”

One player who is no stranger to Roda is Anthony van den Hurk. The 33-year-old striker is heading into his second season with the Kerkrade-based club, where he was a key player last year, scoring seventeen goals. Under the new manager, he is aiming for twenty goals, through which he hopes to help the club secure promotion to the VriendenLoterij Eredivisie.

“The club and the city are desperate for it. It’s a huge club with a fantastic history. People here were still sitting in the stadium when the club was playing in European competitions. So we’re going to do everything we can to make it happen this year,” said Van den Hurk.

There are various ways to secure promotion. Direct promotion via first or second place is not an absolute must for the Limburgers. “We’d like to reach the play-offs, and given our current position, we’re obliged to do so. But we’d also like to challenge for a top-five finish. We don’t have the budget for top-five players, but we do want to be among them. That is certainly one of our objectives,” concludes Penders.

Since i made my post about my intention to visit the lab in june (for naked night), i had 5 people sent me chat request to ''accompany'' them to the lab? what does it mean? (so far none of the dates worked out)

Im sure it doesnt mean talk to them and trying to be social from the station to the club?? (cause if so i probably not the greatest, im going to naked night cause its easy access to sex not because i am super social otherwise i couldve chatted people up in bars instead) cause when i suggested they could talk to the people in the queue or listen to a podcast or smth, they barely responded?

All said they'd feel nervous (and some had bad expierences at the boiler (but thats a sauna not a sex club, so thats a different animal), so they feel better if they arent going alone (3 people said basically the same), do they mean that if they cant find anyone inside at least they have sex with me? is that what it means? glad to hear im not the only insecure one but is that really it, is that what ''accompany'' means? that they can turn to me if they cant find people inside?

or do i have it wrong and does it mean something completely differently?
