Icelandic football supporters: “We’ve got your money”


In the recent events of the financial crisis, the Dutch government has gotten reports of municipalities that had money on the fallen bank of Iceland, Landsbanki. Both the community of Goes, as the one of Pijnacker-Nootdorp had a total of 12 million euro on the Icelandic bank. Groningen is the luckiest municipality, because they transferred all of their money to ING and ABN-Amro before the bankruptcy of the bank. The community of Goes isn’t in big problems, as a local council member said: “We can take a hit”.

Both ... AND ...
Linking word of contrast needed in 5th sentence: '..., though, as a local ...'
