.Williamson. 82,178 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Dutch football chiefs have cancelled a full round of Eredivisie fixtures before Ajax meet Tottenham in the Champions League semi-finals. Ajax were set to play De Graafschap on Sunday, 28 April, then travel to Spurs for the first leg on Tuesday, 30 April. The Dutch FA, the KNVB, said the decision to cancel top-flight fixtures was taken to give Ajax "at least two full days of rest between games". "Not only Ajax, but all Dutch football benefits from this," it said. All games have been cancelled to avoid Ajax and De Graafschap playing at the end of the season once other games have taken place, potentially compromising the competition. The round of fixtures will instead be played on Wednesday, 15 May - subject to local authorities and police agreeing to the date changes.

scotty1976 1,671 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 Seems the Dutch FA care about what’s best for their game, which includes assisting and supporting all their clubs. The SFA on the other hand are consumed with self interest and hatred. No coincidence that one country has a club in the CL semi finals and a reasonably successful national team and the other......well......has nothing close to either.

LV 568 Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 It's not just Ajax match that's postponed they rearranged the whole round of matches so nobody gets an advantage just like in 2008 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
