Over 40 Dutch Clarets in town for Spurs game

[MK-Claret]

Over 40 Dutch clarets have made the journey over for the Spurs game. All the lads are from Helmond near Eindhoven.
Good bunch of lads, they come over for a few games a season.Recently another group came over for the Liverpool and Man Utd games away.
They had strong ties to Burnley due a claret from Burnley wood who settled in the town. The late Darran Woller well known in that area of town a passionate claret who passed his passion on to the locals of Helmond.
I have personally known the Dutch lads for a long time now, all different ages and all top blokes.
If you see them around town tomorrow i'm sure you will give them the usual warm Burnley greeting lol. UTC

Nice to see for the town more than anything. Attracting people from outside the town to boost the local economy is great, as I'm sure they will enjoy a good slurp.

[Lambo]

Get them all in the cricket club for a few pre match scoops...they'll be made most welcome

[Man of Kent]

Try speaking to them with these words. They'll be very grateful and will be most appreciative.

Welkom bij Burnley mijn Nederlandse vrienden. Kan ik koop je een biertje?

[Jamesy]

How did they manage to get tickets for Man U away and Liverpool away?

[DCWat]

Glad we aren't just focussing on the young uns.

[Quicknick]

40 Burnley fans in one Dutch town. Blimey.

I think the same group were at Blackpool a couple of seasons ago.......having a proper party!

Hopefully there isn't a dyke there, that's a lot of competition

[bfcjg]

Hope they have a great day

[MK-Claret]

In reply to how do they get tickets..not all of them travelled over around 15 did. And some sat in the home ends. These lads have been watching Burnley for years. In some cases since late 80's/ early 90's.

This is just one group there's another 30 or so maybe more who haven't travelled as it was too soon after the Liverpool game.

What if they have husbands?!

Only bit of that I can decipher is Biertje - Biertje Bjee, presumably?

[Bin Ont Turf]

I was told when I was out there that there was a Burnley fan in Helmond. It must have been this chap then.

I only ever went to Helmond once though for a few jars.

The first English chap I met on my first day at work was a chap from up Brunshaw Road. I said that's a familiar accent, I couldn't believe it.

[Pstotto]

The stewards better watch out, what did they say, gnaigre vjener?

[pushpinpussy]

ive just seen 40 football fans getting off the train at Manchester Road wearing bicycle helmets, smoking marijuana and asking where the local brothels are. the dutch must have arrived.

A few translations below you might want to use to make our European friends welcome:

Andre Gray's First Touch is Less than Adequate:
"Andre Gray's eerste aanraking is stront!"

Why Is Defour Not Starting?
"waarom is Defour niet starten"

Bastards are 2 Down Already
"Klootzakken zijn twee reeds"

Make Some Subs Please, Mr Dyche:
"Maak een aantal neuken vervangingen Dyche"

This Beer Tastes Like A Bag Of Dead Cats
"Dit bier smaakt als een zak met dode katten"

[HatfieldClaret]

That's easy for you to say,

The pronunshashun ish a nightmare.

[NRC]

Quite like the sound of klootzakken

Google translation isn't all you expect - only one decent translation in there (the last one)

[Top Claret]

Poor buggers coming all that way to watch that garbage

[KRBFC]

they'd be better following Ajax, at least Ajax can pass a ball.

[RMutt]

He seems to have been a charismatic character Darran Waller. If was him I might have been tempted to start a sex cult instead.

[Saxoman]

they'd be better following Ajax, at least Ajax can pass a ball.

Was looking forward to reading your view on the game..

[RMutt]

Sorry that shouldn't have been instead, it should have been as well.

[evensteadiereddie]

Are you talking to yourself again, saxo ?

More importantly, on the theme of visitors to the Turf, nice to see about thirty Japanese lads, members of their football club, in the JHL - another group from Padua, Italy, too.

[randomclaret2]

The Japanese lads were playing down at Gawthorpe in the morning , playing on the pitch next to the youth game . The team they were playing were in BFC kit, but seemed a mix of u 16s and older lads ( maybe the " shadow" youth squad connected to the college )

Went to watch Dortmund in May and saw this in the toilets. Just got round to searching them and found this thread.

[Bin Ont Turf]

On my first venture into Paddy's Irish pub in Eindhoven I saw on the bog door carved into the wood...... BRFC and underneath Burnley Ba**ards.

I wasn't having that and did a great sanding job using my door key.

[Quicknick]

Similarly, there is BRFC painted on a wall in Lagos old town which I have doctored.

sweeping generalisation, lumping 40 men as "good bunch of lads"
its like us lot going to holland, and the dutch saying the same thing without any knowledge, Bin ont turf could be there, he cant be classed as decent.
a vile repugnant and humourless character clad in an oversized club shirt. imagine accidentally trying to befriend that !!!! shudder.
