“They were better”
Stijn D’Hulst, Knack Roeselare: “Bravo for Maaseik. We were not able to put our foot next to them in this series. We were able to put our foot next to them in the previous match, then the faith returned. But if you see the difference with which we lose certain sets, we simply have to conclude that they were better than us.”
“I end this season with a bad feeling. It is my first title to lose, so it is painful of course. But it is what it is, it is still sport. But it hurts to see the others partying.”
“Beautiful period that I am ending”
Pieter Coolman, Knack Roeselare: “It is a shame that we lose the title and that Maaseik is champion. The deserved champion, of course. It is also a shame that it has to end this way for me personally. But I have been able to turn my hobby into my profession. At a certain point, because of your age, you have to stop. It is a decision I made a while ago, and it is not a pleasant decision anyway. I am at peace with the fact that I am quitting, it is a beautiful period that I am leaving behind me, but I will definitely miss it.”
