Pierre van Hooijdonk was a regular guest at Studio Voetbal, where Marcel van Roosmalen had a column called 'Korte Corner'. Van Hooijdonk had been an analyst at the NOS for a long time before the two parted ways recently, VoetbalPrimeur reports.

Van Roosmalen recalls that Van Hooijdonk once blocked his column because he featured in it. Van Roosmalen also describes Van Hooijdonk's serious demeanor, which he found amusing. Van Hooijdonk was known for his love of football and his imposing car, which he would park right outside the Studio Voetbal entrance to avoid walking to the parking lot.
