There's news of a Blackburn scout being at the game to scout Bradley. http://www.skysports.com/football/match_facts/0,19762,11065_2863332,00.html
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen American-bred YA, yes. But according to wikipedia, Earnie Stewart had 17 in 1990-91. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Earnie_Stewart ------- In his first season at Willem II, he finished third on the goal-scoring list for the Dutch First Division, with 17. -------
bit of back and forth. then a h'veen defender screws up a pass out of the back by getting it blocked by a graaf player. 'keeper clears before graaf player can latch on to it.
h'veen with an almost clean, low-flighted through ball into the box. ball cleared out. Bradley involved in lightning counter from deep in defensive midfield.
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen Thank you tmagic and DoctorD for getting it... My "nepotism" post seemed to go over his head... somehow. Thought it was clear enough that it was a joke.
meek shot on goal by 'graaf after throw in from h'veen defending left and header. easily grabbed by keeper. more sustain pressure by 'graaf. foul by graaf in attacking box.
Anyone have ideas for getting streams of soccer matches for Mac/OS X? Tried the MYP2P route but their software is for Windows only. Appreciate any help.
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen De Graafschap are playing very hard, they just don't have the je ne sais quoi... but sheesh, Mikey is just making a killing on those late runs into the area.
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen I got it. it's just tired, dude. real tired. nothing to do with Yanks Abroad.
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen Yeah, they just don't have An American midfielder named Bradley...
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen Willem II were in the eredivisie in 1990/91 http://voetbal.boa.nl/archief/eindstanden.html i guess it comes down to one's definition of Stewart at the time (a YA, a foreign-bred YA, or neither). I see 17 as the record that Bradley (and everyone) should be aiming for.
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen The people that made those silly nepotism claims don't like to be made fun of.
Bradley is in behind the two forwards. When his team on defense he'll drop in between midfield circle and the top of the box. h'veen like to attack it from center out to the flanks and back in to into center around the box. they do a good job of combining when in the attack. 'graaf has some skill and is getting chances around the box. both teams are a bit languid in defense.
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen I was never a part of that either side of that debate, but same lame comments week after week after week after week on an unrelated forum gets tired.
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen i thought it was funny. even more funny that you're sick of it
Re: Mike Braddley Sat 1/26 20:00 CET De Graafschap - SC Heerenveen Somethings not right. The wikipedia link you first posted states The First Division is the second level of Dutch football.
