VVV trial for Belgian player

05 July 2002

VVV have offered the Belgian forward Christophe Geebelen a trial till July 20th in which he can try to earn himself a contract with Wim Dusseldorp's team. The 24 year-old comes from KV Mechelen but last season  was on loan to Belgian Second Divison side Verbroedering Geel. He joined Mechelen from rivals Maasland Mechelen in 2000 and has the chance to play in one, or all four, friendlies that VVV have planned for the coming two weeks.

VVV beat Den Haag 4-1
VVV got off to a slow start and found themselves trailing 0-1 in the 31st minute after Den Haag's top scorer Emiel van Eijkeren netted his 16th goal of the season. That woke the home team up and they drew level 3 minutes later via Bernhard Hofstede. Remco put the home side ahead 1 minute before the break. In the 2nd half Den Haag were not able to put on as much of a show as in the 1st and VVV were basically able to do as they pleased. Bernhard Hofstede added another 2 goals to his score in the 49th and 60th to take his season's total to 19 goals for Den Haag this season, making him the no.3 top scorer in the Eerste Divisie for the season 2001-2002.

Haarlem draw with VVV 0-0.
Sometimes a 0-0 draw can be just as exciting as a 3-3, unfortunately for the spectators, this wasn't one of those matches. To say that Haarlem was the better of the 2 sides would be giving them too much credit in what was basically an awful game.

VVV  beat Cambuur 2-1.
VVV's top scorer Brian Hofsteded the score for the home side in the 12th minute with his 17th goal of the season. Remco Evers doubled the score 6 minutes later with a nice 20 meter shot. Although Cambuur's top scorer Jan de Bruin pulled one back 10 minutes into the 2nd half, VVV remained the better of the 2 sides and had little difficulty in playing out the remainder of the match.

VVV in squad clear out

16 Apr 2002

VVV have decided not to extend the contracts of Ruud Kool, Oswald Snip, Remco Evers, Dave Joosten and Maarten van Elst. Although it was already known that, as part of the Eerste Divisie side's preparations for next season, Maurice Graef, John Roox and Kris Porte were leaving at the end of the season, no decision's yet been made as to Boy Seijkens future with the club. The talented midfielder has been suspended for the rest of this season for disciplinary reasons. In the meantime the Venlo club have signed their first player for next season, 24 year-old Belgian keeper Koen Wins from Excelsior Veldwezel, who's signed a deal for one season (VVV have an option for another two).

Dordrecht beat VVV 2 - 1
After a goalless 1st half VVV top scorer Bernhard Hofsteded the score for the visitors with his 17th goal of the season. 4 minutes later Dennis van de Pennen went for an early shower after receiving his second yellow card for a rather trivial offence. Although reduced to 10 men Dordrecht levelled in the 80th minute via Mark de Vries and with just 3 minutes left to go former West Ham player Marco Boogers scored with a 35 meter missile.

VVV draw with Go Ahead Eagles  1 - 1.
VVV were unlucky last night after drawing with Go Ahead Eagles when in fact they could have won. The home side should have been awarded 2 penalties in the 1st 10 minutes of the game but referee Karremans was not in the blowing mood and kept his whistle safely tucked away. In the 10th minute of the game VVV took the lead after Sjors Verdellen's magnificent 30 metre lob flew into the back of the net. Dutch television station SBS6 were ecstatic about the goal and showed several replays later in the evening on their Friday night sport's program.  In the 90th minute, Go Ahead Eagles forward Marcel Muhlac scored his 1st goal of the season, putting the final 1-1 on the board.

VVV draw with Helmond  0 - 0.
Both teams turned up for the match and both teams put on their strip but that didn't guarantee an entertaining match, so a goalless draw was an unsurprising result.
