FC DEN BOSCH
TEAM NOTES
Coach: Jan van Grinsven and Wim van der Horst (ad-interim since 7 March 2005) Dutch League (Relegated)
Record: 5-25-4
Rank: 18th, 19 points
Last Result: 3-0 loss vs. FC Utrecht, May 22
Streak: Lost 2 One year after clinching the title and being promoted, FC Den Bosch returned to the Second Division on goal difference. Both FC Den Bosch and De Graafschap went into the final game of the season with 19 points. Dark clouds gathered above the stadium, when Den Bosch was trailing 2-0 and De Graafschap holding a 1-0 advantage over Vitesse. In the end both lost their games and FC Den Bosch' run after the winter break wasn't rewarded, sent down with a disadvantage of just six goals. The average home attendance rose more than 56 percent to 5,855. Young forward Koen van de Laak became club's top scorer with six goals. Ferne Snoyl became the most booked player of the season with nine yellow cards in 25 league games, averaging one card in every three games. Heracles Almelo will take FC Den Bosch's place at the highest level, after being crowned champions of the Second Division last Friday.
