Third place was worth it tbh.

Well, it's a bit misleading though: the 84, 88 and 92 euros only had 8 teams, so it was infinitely more difficult to qualify.
1996 was the first one with 16 teams.
When you consider this, Netherlands failure is worse by several orders of magnitude.

Not so hard. Greece has qualified in 1980, Romania has qualified in 1984 and Ireland has qualified in 1988.

i would rather see us go out like this than having to watch cut inside & co get humiliated at age 33+. at least they went out on a great world cup.

Top 3 out of 32 is by definition not mediocre.
