Was talking the other day with someone and the topic of happy places came up. Like, places you have a good memory of that you can go back to if you feel down. I couldn’t imagine a happy place at that moment but I just figured out my happy place.
It’s a public natural swimming pool made in a river in a tiny village in the Provence, France. I went there for my first holiday with my girlfriend when we were not even two months together. We met and we just felt like going on a three week trip together through France. Never went to France before and never went camping before. So we went camping in this small village in the Provence and I had the time of my life really. That specific pool deserves to be my happy place.
How about you guys?
you’re a psv supporter? how long do you think you will keep gakpo and simons?
I will personally block the entrance to their homes when we get a transfer fee. I want them to stay forever. Realistically, if we get an offer of 70 million for Gakpo, like the rumours want us to believe, he will be gone sadly. I hope he ends up better than Bergwijn, Memphis, Strootman or whatever golden talent we have delivered in the past decade. Only Wijnaldum became decently succesful for the ‘once in a lifetime’ talents we had in the last ten years. Gakpo seems like another one of those so I hope he can keep his form in the future. It would be hard to replace him, but we have several youth academy prospect who are looking great with Madueke, Bakayoko, Ibadi, van Duiven and Jevon Simons (not related to Xavi).
Now, Simons is just something else though.
I think football (and sports generally) are my happy place…
I’m a celtic supporter, and it’s sad how maybe 20, but definitely 30+ years ago clubs like celtic, psv, ajax, benfica, etc are were recognized as big, relevant clubs; now clubs with money but no history like PSG and Man City can dominate football and people are supposed to act like it’s some accomplishment to be owned by billionaire royal families…
It really is sad. When we played R+ngers this year it felt like a trip to the past. Two great clubs going against eachother while clubs with no history like City can go into CL with ease. But then I remember that the R+ngers fans brought 3k fans with them, and we regularly bring like 5k fans to European away games while big clubs can’t even fill away sections international.
We are the big clubs in number of fans. When PSV plays at home, the city gets another 2-300k visitors for the stadium and the bars. When we become champion, there are 1 million people that come to Eindhoven. We are a big club, the results are just shit.
As a bonus, here is a message from PSV to Celtic.
ha well done writing r+ngers
love that video

So have you blocked the entrance to Gakpo’s home yet or what? 👀
I’ve changed my plan to block the entrance to Marcel Brands’ home. Reports say we are getting 37 million + 13 million in future fees for a player involved in 110+ goals in like 100 matches, while Antony goes for more than double.
I at least hope his replacement will be decent. We apparently are going to sign a Norwegian guy from Molde.
It definitely seems like a rip off considering the fee. I think Antony and ohter Ajax players go for so much money because of their recent form in the champions league.
Molde usually produce good players, so you’ll probably be fine. As long as you keep SImons and reinvest the Gakpo cash wisely…
