50PLUS -1: Leo Beenhakker withdraws as list pusher in Rotterdam | Football

sport">Beenhakker has withdrawn because he had underestimated its consequences and did not want the associated interest. “We have to respect that motive and we thank Leo for his willingness and addition today that he continues to support 50PLUS in Rotterdam,” said party chairman Ellen Verkoelen to Dagblad010.

sport">Jorien van den Herik will remain prominent as the list pusher of the Rotterdam 50PLUS. “The three of us put our heads together on Thursday evening and said like grown-ups: if you, Leo, are no longer happy for personal reasons with so much requested publicity, then we only have to make one joint decision: still not on the list. It is up to me and others to push extra for the next two months. We will certainly do that.”

sport">Van der Herik previously indicated that he was particularly charmed by the points of the match and Ver Koelen in the stadium file. “Ellen deserves great appreciation for her efforts as a soloist. I still travel a lot, but I follow her energy closely. Her vision of Feyenoord City appeals to me.”
