I had a dream tonight that Ireland was leading Netherlands 5:1 at the end of Q3.

I had a dream in which I was supposed to play in the men's final, but could not find my clothes anywhere in any of the locker rooms and so could not start because while the anthems were being played I was still searching for my clothes.

It made a lot of Dutch people, including me, hate Jos Verstappen: he was sort of a national hero due to his F1 podium many years before (as only Dutchman ever) and in the A1 he would finally race in Zandvoort. Around 110.000 people got tickets (considering Zandvoort is full to the limits when there's 90.000 people that's quite a lot)....and then the week before the event he was like "nah the team manager didn't pay my salary, I'm not driving"  Luckily his replacement (Jeroen Bleekemolen) had one of the best races of his career and more than made up for Verstappen's "fuck you" in terms of excitement.

 

Anyhow, this is getting a little off topic  

 

I remember that the Irish and Dutch mechanical teams used to co-operate with each other (not on the track )

What kind of cheese were you eating last night??  

 

I had a bean salad, so perhaps that's your explanation.

I don't think so, they played well. Though I don't remember how it ended.

No, no, no.... with a reaction like that you were clearly dreaming of @heywoodu's lost clothes scenario.

Well in that case we won the Snooker World Cup 3 times in a row and also the Golf World Cup twice. A1GP World Cup of Motorsport too (I guess it's a team sport since there was a background team and not just the driver involved ).

 

But you get the idea, first final in a major / Olympic team sport

 

 

Golf & snooker is an individual sport
