The weather 23-24 will go down in history as one of the darkest pages in the history of Roda JC. In just two weeks, what seemed like a safe promotion turned into a real nightmare that ended in the worst possible way, with the team eliminated from the promotion playoffs in the Eredivisie, a promotion it had already celebrated before.
Development of events
Just two weeks ago, on the penultimate matchday of the Dutch second division, Roda achieved direct promotion if they won their match and the Groningen He did not do the same. They accomplished their mission and Groningen was losing the entire match. Their rivalry ended minutes early and the fans, eager to celebrate what seemed like a sure victory, jumped onto the green to celebrate early. In the middle of the celebration, news reached them that the ‘farmers’ had tied up and the stasis was stopped. A few minutes later, it was resumed due to an alleged goal from rival Groningen (which never happened). In the end they did not achieve the most desired goal.
However, on the final day they continued to rely on themselves and the draw served them well, as their rivals were Groningen themselves. In the game played Euroborg They were outplayed (2-0) and the playoffs were the last hope. A promotion stage where they have to go through two qualifying rounds before the ‘final’. Well, in the quarterfinals they lost (3-1) in the first leg and in the second leg at home they received a painful (0-5) which the fans did not allow and to which they responded by throwing bottles at green which forced the development of the game to stop several times.
