Hi everyone, I'm glad to be back; missed you guys!
However this whole story is based on a media rumor published by Nu.nl
I was very surprised and curious about this article, because as a
Dutch citizen I should at least have heard about the subject, so I
followed the link Roy provided and saw this comment:

Guys,
I don't understand a word of Dutch. Can you translate what Vam Dam
is talking about here?
So I thought, let's do Miguel a favor, read and translate what Van Dam
writes.
How ironic, what Van Dam writes in this article is basically that the
article published by Nu.nl is nothing but gossip :)
Cheers,
Marti
