Eerste Divisie 1970/71

Promotion after a season in which only two matches are lost.  The
defensive record is especially impressive, but is still overshadowed
by that of G.V.A.V.: 7 goals against in 30 matches, the best-ever
performance in professional football thanks to the legendary Tonny
van Leeuwen.  The 7 goals G.V.A.V. conceded: at home, one each to
S.C. Cambuur (0-1), Heerenveen (2-1) and Helmond Sport (1-1), away
one each to F.S.C. (1-0), Helmond Sport (1-1, the only team to score
in both matches against G.V.A.V.), Heracles (1-1), and Vitesse (1-0).

F.C. Den Bosch finish eight points clear of third placed Vitesse, which
also gain promotion after the merger in Den Haag between A.D.O. and
Holland Sport.
