Spanish Football thread

Could you believe that celebration? It was more like the sodding opening ceremony to a World Cup, it went on so long!

I'm glad Madrid won it, for Beckham and Ruud. Also, I didn't want to see that cheating 'Hand of God' wannabe Messi win it!

Good luck in LA, Becks! Madrid were crackers to sell you (and so were we! )

Campeones Campeones ole ole ole Campeones Campeones ole ole ole !!!!!

Finally we won it! YES! Last night was exceptional, couldn't stop celebrating and the Bernabeu looked amazing! The Real Madrid we knew is back! 30th League title, that's a record in whole of Europe!

 

[MasterBlaster76]

Congratulations!

One thing though: When the hell do you lift the cup? Does it get lifted at the stadium at all?

Before the start of the new season

 

[MasterBlaster76]

So you have to wait all summer until you see the cup lifted at the Stadium???
I don't think us Man U fans would want to put up with that, indeed I'm sure all English fans wouldn't!

Sheesh, you've fought hard for the whole season and now you don't get to parade the cup at the stadium until the new season?!

 

[m_vaughan]

Yup. Thats probably because the fans in Spain like to party and celebrate outside the stadium.

Anyways the trophy has been presented to the team:

I smell a new wallpaper here :cool:.

Nice one farrukh. By the way I will be going to Madrid in October, and I plan to watch a game at the SB.

Also, the Copa Del Rey final is this weekend. I have a feeling Getafe are going to clinch it which would better an already fantastic season for them. Sevilla have too many vital players missing and have been pretty ordinary in recent games. Although they were in the La Liga title race till the last matchday, they never really did anything themselves.

Probably am a bit biased to Getafe as I dont want Sevilla to win a second trophy this season.

If that bus suddenly had to make an emergency stop, Beckham would fall straight over the top. Beckham, Living on the edge as always.

That is a rpetty awesome picture it has to be said. Madrid deserved the title and i am pleased that they did win it.

Sevilla have won the Copa del Rey final, they beat Getafe 1 - 0 in the Bernabeu. Next season the Supercup will be Real Madrid vs Sevilla and we will beat them .

Congratulations to Sevilla. But was that Kanoute's last goal for Sevilla??
Anyways good season over all for Ramos' team with two trophies and also a CL spot.

Looking forward to the Super Copa now.

Chris Coleman has been offered the manager's job at Real Sociedad.

 

[Leicester Fox]

Fabio Capello has been sacked

 

[Animator!]

The Coleman decision will be interesting, just to see how he goes about the style of Football etc.

Sacking Cappello is stupid, but a typical Madrid decision. The club needs stability, you'd be far more successful if you stuck with a manager for more than one year, and that's if they win you the league.

 

[Leicester Fox]

Does Coleman speak Spanish? Could have a bit of a Ranieri situation otherwise!
