		<description><![CDATA[Being Scottish I am perhaps not really qualified to delve deep into the nature of World-cup winning potential and strategy as even in the good years we never got further than the first group stages of either the World Cup or the European Championship. However, as someone who has lived in Holland through various more [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In this second post-competition blog report the story of the teams being relegated from the Eredivisie to the Jupiler League (second division) and the teams going up the other way. Firstly, the easy bits: the bottom club of the Eredivisie is automatically relegated to the lower league, and this year the doubtful honour fell to [...]]]></description>

As with many other premier European leagues, the top two go through automatically to the Champions League and this year Twente go straight into the [...]]]></description>

All Twente had to do was win, all Ajax could do was win and hope that Twente didn&#8217;t. Twente travelled to Breda [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Round 32 &#8211; summary It was a tough week for the Eredivisie clubs. Midweek, they all had catch-up games to be played and given the stage of the season we have reached, these games were potentially banana peels for some of the top clubs. And so it proved for no-one less than current leaders, FC [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Leaders Twente Enschede were at home to Heerenveen. The Fresians have not had the best of seasons and were not expected to form much of an impediment to Steve McLaren&#8217;s outfit&#8217;s title chances. But it turned into a sloppy and ungainly match where there was not much to choose between the two sides. The first [...]]]></description>

In a game of few chances, most of them falling to Twente, the home team could not put up a creditable fight and the first blow for Twente came in the 38th minute [...]]]></description>

Leaders FC Twente from Enschede were up against a not-so-strong Sparta from Rotterdam. After a tough first [...]]]></description>

The Philips men put a lot of energy into their pressing game as they piled the pressure on the Tukkers. Despite this, neither team could score in the first half and the game [...]]]></description>

ADO did shock the home fans with an early goal but Twente were awarded a penalty soon after which top scorer Ruiz converted. Near the hour mark, he got his second and the third for [...]]]></description>
