Who will save the brown pub of FC Utrecht icon

The café has already been partly dismantled and many items have been sold in recent years. But the yellowed ceiling is still there, the brown bar too and the doors are still full of stickers that are sometimes forty years old. Holterhuës can see it in his mind: a brown pub, which is not called Café de Engelenburgh, but Café Joop van Maurik. With attention to the Utrecht football culture and with items from heroes such as Willem van Hanegem, Marco van Basten, Wesley Sneijder and of course Van Maurik himself. Like a kind of museum pub. “I can see that. Then you will have a lasting memory.”
