Thats a good but hard question, teams don`t differ that much from eachother, everybody can be beaten.

Personally I go for either Ado Den Haag or Emmen.

For some people here this could be a bit hard to answer, I can`t believe that the Dutch first division is interesting to anybody who isn`t Dutch or really foolows the Dutch league.

i think Ado has the biggest chance, they have a good balanced experienced team. Emmen plays great but they sometimes tend to get in a period where they gain no points. They have trouble keeping their form up for a whole season.

Thank you for the welcome.

But i think that we can discuss this subject here because there are more dutch people on this WSB.

And maybe they would like to discuss this subject because maybe there club is playing in the first division.

And BTW succes against Feyenoord This Weekend

Well at least people who don`t live in Holland get to see more from the Dutch League..
They said there were ADO supporters in the stadium when Utrecht played their UEFACUP match. I guess they are already practising... .... ....

Interesting thread guys. I'm not too familiar with the Erste Divisie. I'll probably browse your thread though and maybe pose a question from time to time.

thnx for some clubs maybe like Haarlem, VVV, Heracles en Dordrecht maybe and some other. But they could play good games and make it difficult to the bigger clubs.

Like newly promoted RBC Roosendaal and Excelsior are proving.
Zwolle also beat Vitesse. Not bad I think.

excelsior improved drastically thanks to the cooperation with Feyenoord. Their renovated stadium is really nice :star:

Zwolle and RBC aren't bad, Go Ahead is ok too, like Ado and maybe Emmen, but even some eredivisie clubs from days past like fortuna, MVV and unfortunately Sparta play totally crappy. I am not trying to insult this league but it's so obviously weak.

Its weak, but like you said there are a few good teams in it.
About Excelsior, true, but I never denied that. There were also helped when they were in the first division. They wouldn`t have gotten promotion if they didn`t work with Feyenoord. Sparta is sad, but three teams from Rotterdam is more than enough from me.
