Because of my liking for bizarre and tasteless sports shirts, I tend to keep an eye-out for sc Heerenveen - any team who can play in a shirt consisting of lilac and white stripes, covered in red water lilies (that isn't a mistake...), is worth a look. They must have some fortitude, given that it leaves them wide-open to being called a 'bunch of lillies'...

Also in the Eredivisie, an honourable mention must go the exceedingly liberal Fortuna Sittard. I describe the club, as such, because they allow the Sittard Ultras to display a banner, right behind the goals (so it can be seen in all TV coverage), at every game - week-in, week-out. It reads 'F*** You - We Are Sittard'... I wonder how long such a banner would last at any English ground, or Nationals Park, for that matter... :hysterical:
