The NEC football collection
We have collected a cool collection of vintage Nijmegen posters for you. To start with, we have the Goffert ready for you. Every weekend, 12,500 supporters cheer their club in NEC's home base. This stadium is nicknamed 'de Bloedkuul' and was opened in 1939 as the home of NEC. In addition, this stadium has been used several times for international matches for the Dutch men's and women's national team.
In addition, we also have beautiful prints of highlights from the history of the club. Think, for example, of the promotion from '64 or matches against AFC Ajax and Feyenoord from the early 1970s when they belonged to the top of Europe. The collection is being worked on daily to expand it even further. With this we ensure that we can serve every NEC fan and provide a beautiful vintage poster.

NEC Nijmegen
For anyone who ever wants to visit Nijmegen, there is one thing that you should keep in mind. NEC should never be pronounced as NEC. If you do, you will have a screaming crowd chasing you. Your neck is between your shoulders and your head. NEC is in your heart' is a well-known saying from Nijmegen.
NEC is a relatively small club in the Netherlands, but nevertheless reached the final of the KNVB Cup four times. Unfortunately, there was never a victory. The club also became champion of the First Division twice in 1975 and 2015, which forced the club to be promoted to the Eredivisie.
NEC has won European football several times in its existence and has played matches here against major clubs from abroad. Clubs such as Girondins de Bordeaux, FC Barcelona, Tottenham Hotpsur and HSV from Germany.
In the history of the club, there are five players who have made it to the Dutch national team on behalf of NEC. These are Jan Peters, Theo de Jong, Wim Lakenberg, Pauke Meijers and most recently Romano Denneboom in 2004. For a modest club like NEC this is of course very neat.
