Spanish Fitba

[Jute]

ITV4 showing Real Madrid v Valencia tonight. 

[Jute]

Not a great first half. Madrid with a goal disallowed by VAR only real highlight. 

[Jute]

2 goals in 90 seconds to put Madrid 2-0 up. 

[Jute]

Barcelona v Sevilla is on ITV4 tonight. 

[Jute]

Real Madrid v Celta Vigo on ITV4 this evening. 

[Jute]

1-0 Madrid just before half time. Really well worked goal. 

[Jute]

Espanyol v Barcelona on ITV4 tonight at 8pm if anyone is looking for something to watch. 

[Jute]

Barcelona win 4-2 to secure Spanish title and push Espanyol towards relegation. 

[Jute]

Atletico currently drawing 0-0 away to Betis and Barca struggling to beat Cadiz at their temporary home at the Olympic stadium. Only Real have 6 points after first two games. Think they will run away with league this season.

Tierney off to Real Sociedad on loan.  I think that's a brilliant move for him, he's really well suited to that league and I wouldn't be at all surprised if one of the bigger Spanish clubs make a move for him come the end of his loan spell.

Luis Rubiales - dodgy sleaze or political correctness gone mad?  Surely there are worse things happening in the world?

These 2 things could be simultaneously true!!

He was out of order, should have apologised and that would have been the end of it!!

He did apologise, but it wasn't the end of it. I think the initial reaction was probably justified, the apology good enough. What's happened since is now the thing, it's beyond my fathoming. I guess that making these stories bigger than they actually are is now a financial decision. There is a minority of people who actually care about this individual incident to the extreme level to which it's now being covered, but I expect most don't really care. Then again, there was a story on the BBC yesterday about Elton John being absolutely fine, so fuck knows what makes headlines these days.

[Goldie03]

I think there is a lot going on within the Spanish fa and both sides have been a bit extreme. Everytime I've seen him he has acted like a dick but I agree it has all got out of hand.  

Oh no how did I miss that headline  ha

"I am sorry for those offended," isn't a real apology though. There are undoubtedly massive issues within the Spanish FA and this has probably brought them all to a head.

Well this has taken a twist  

[Jute]

Barcelona v Athletic Bilbao is on ITV4 this Sunday. Half 7 show starts. 
 

 

[Kowalski]

Hate to say it but yon lad Bellingham may well turn out to be the guff’s best ever player. Playing incredibly well for Real.

He was anonymous in the first half. Gavi hardly gave him a kick. Game changed when Modric came on as sub which seemed to give Bellingham the space he needed and he took control. 

[Jute]

Barcelona v Atletico Madrid on ITV4 at 8pm tonight.

[Jute]

Real Madrid v Real Mallorca on ITV4 tonight at 1815. 

[Jute]

0-0 at half time. Not a great game so far to be honest. 

[Kowalski]

Xavi to leave at the end of the season. 

[Jute]

Lost 5-3 tonight and 10 points behind in the league. Just getting it in before club confirm his exit? 

[Jute]

Atletico Madrid v  Barcelona on ITV4 at 8pm tomorrow.
