Feyenoord away in 2002 – How it was, when it wasBack in the day when we had a rivalry with the mackems, as in we actually played games against them, it came to our notice that our wearside chums had formed some sort of alliance with the Dutch club Feyenoord!!!So imagine my delight when Sir Bobby got us into the Champions League and who do we draw in our group, yes Feyenoord.
Around 5.30pm the bars around the station were rammed so we nipped in a little side street pub, big mistake as we got yakking left the bar and not a toon fan in sight. Anyways, we get the next train and land in Rotterdam an hour later and not one of the lads in sight . Anyway, six of us got off and had a mooch around the station, you could just feel there was an atmosphere that it was going to kick off. Lots of lad’s dressed like us but didn’t recognise any faces. So approached this group and said to this man mountain “alreet lads, it looks a bit shady around here,” for him to reply … ‘Fook you Noocassel, I supportReturning to my mates with the good news, there were now another 20 other toon fans in shirts and scarves who were looking rather worried.
Luckily for me, I still had a can of Heineken in my pocket, so I put it in the palm of my hand, meeting Mr Man Mountain’s head with my hand, sending him tumbling back down the stairs. Johnny the diver then takes care of one, only for then the local dibble to turn up and start hitting the Feyenoord fans, then putting us safely on the train to the ground to witness a magical performance by sir Bobby’s boys in a 3-2 victory.
Then back to the dam to celebrate long into the night…except we didn’t, as everywhere was closed by the time we got back. So pop and choccy from the vending machine in the hotel for supper.
