Self-styled “City of Sports”. Home of Erasmus, the likeable Betty Stove and the unlikeable Pim Fortuyn.

Feyenoord Rotterdam , first Dutch football team to be European champions. However their fans have a history of horrific violence. Seville about ten years ago , Rome just last year and Barnsley cancelled a pre season friendly because of impending doom.The Battle of Beverwijk would certainly have caused Harry The Dog to restrain himself.

They are scum but on the plus side anything to do with football in Rome always deserves a good kicking without much danger of losing the moral high ground.

Also in terms of football teams there is the majesty of Excelsior Rotterdam who are sometimes referred to as the Paper Recyclers due to in time of hardship the chairman would recycle paper at the nearby plant. On one occasion he got so much money for his recycling that he joked “Get on the phones, we’ve got enough money now to sign Johan Cruyff!”

In keeping with Excelsior, they play in a majestic black shirt and red shorts.
