Well Done Gio.

Feyenoord won their first Dutch title since 1999 thanks to captain Dirk Kuyt's hat-trick in their win over Heracles Almelo on the final day.

Giovanni van Bronckhorst's side need to win, with Ajax one point behind them, and nerves were settled when 36-year-old Kuyt pounced on a defensive mistake to score the opener after 38 seconds.

THEY WENT ON TO WIN 3-1 and secure the title from Ajax by 1 point.

Always thought Gio was a classy bloke, cracking layer anaw, didn't he go from midfield with Ranges to right back at Barca?

I'm sure his first game for Rangers was left back v Sherbourne like he eventually played for Barcelona and the Netherlands. Numan was given extended time off due to world cup I believe. 0-3 down at tranmere ground. Must've wondered wtf he'd got himself into.

Gio was a fantastic player

The Feyenoord players and fans will be going off their heads with sheer joy........and you can bet that Trevor, the Birmingham fan from Dudley will be saying "Fooking tinpot league - my nan would score a barrel load in that!"

Steve 👍😀 I love those type, scoring goals is never easy, that's why great strikers are thin on the ground, good point👍

Aye they'll use examples like Vincent Janssen, Afonso Alves and luuk de Jong as proof it's s terrible league and it's players can't cut it.

Ignore suarez, van nistelrooy, hasselbaink and van persie got signed from Dutch teams.

True, there can be defensive lapses in some of the games I watch but similar to the SPFL and their players are trying to play a passing more technical game some cracking atmosphere at a good few of the games👍
