[Football] Copa Del Ray

[Tony Towner's Fridge]

The competition this year is brilliant! Tonight, both real Madrid and Barcelona were beaten by the Basque teams Real Sociedad and Athleic Bilbao. These two semi finalists are joined by Granada and a Second B division team called Mirandes.
Bilbao and Sociedad scored their winners deep into extra time. Truly amazing scenes at The San Mames in Bilbao. Apart from them wearing red and white stripes I really like em!
Inaki Williams is their locally born centre forward who looks mustard everytime I see him play. Maybe worth a punt IMHO but would cost a few tens of millions, I reckon.

I am so happy to have an interest in one cup competition this year

I like to see a happy 'jock'. It makes such a lovely change

If we were to go for a striker I'd like us to go for Alexander Isak from Sociedad, however they only signed him last summer..

For those who know me...I am always happy...

Must be my demeanour or make up? (Not that i wear much).

I flew in to Bilbao last weekend and popped in to San Sebastian. Been there a couple of times recently and it seems to be a real football town. They love their football history and the town is peppered with flags hanging from the windows and balconies. Real Sociedad play in blue and white stripes so it was quite home from home.

You'd also imagine that his next move would be a fair bit higher than us. He's been regarded in Sweden as "the next Zlatan" since he was 17 and though it didn't work out at BVB, he's still only 20!

I thought all cup competitions should be scrapped?

I was expecting a thread on Parlour's 2002 Cup Final screamer.
