If you only go to ONE Albion friendly, please make it the Reading game.

I can think of three better two from Michel and one from Ben Roberts.
Best save I've seen is Kuipers away at Tranmere from a Wayne Allinson header very early in the season 2000/01
Kuipers at home to Bristol City over Easter when a Lee Steele goal all but won us the Championship.
Ben Roberts made a stunner away at Bradford 2002/03

He made one save V Blackpool about ten years ago - astonishing !!!
Anyone else remember that? Or his save V Bristol City?

Does everyone think FDM will play the full game?...I was thinking he would play half the game with a few old faces, then the second half would be a good run out for the first team. This is Reading, they are a prem side lets not forget.

That save against Blackpool remains the greatest I've ever seen live. Was it Brett Ormerod? Swivelled and hit it from about six yards, and Kuipers saved it with one hand with absolutely no time to react. We were on our feet, it was absolutely unbelievable. Had it gone in, the reports would have said that it 'gave the 'keeper no chance', but somehow he kept it out. A genuinely staggering save.
ees complicated no?

I hope we field a strong starting 11, but with the Chelsea game so close I thinik it will be mainly youth and the old league 1 players.

It will be the current team and Michel.
Although there will be some legends at the game watching.

Given FDM's popularity, and given that there's no points requirement for tickets for his testimonial, it wouldn't surprise me if this match sells out before the Chelsea match. This is the big one as far as I'm concerned - I expect the Amex to be absolutely ROCKING to:
"Michel Kuipers, the Former Dutch Marine, Former Dutch Marine, Former Dutch Marine!"

You might have to explain that one.

Just as an additional heads-up, Michel will be the first guest in the studio when The Albion Roar returns on 28th July.

Alan, does the FDM dutch flag still exist somewhere? (As seen on his leaving meal in Hove). Would be lovely to see that hanging behind the goal at the match.

I don't know whose it is.
Put out an APB on it, and hope that it makes an appearance, I s'pose.
