Don't do it! At least if you have to route for a Madrid team follow Atletico.

Para mi: Celta de Vigo! :p

You mean Atletico de la Segunda, Asterault?

There's only one team in Spain worth supporting..... Malaga C.F. of course - who else??

Best team-for-hire: Real Madrid (to the Barça supporter, ahí va un refrán: «Ahora con Aznar y antes con Franco, siempre te estaré dando». I caught this on a clever "moving parts" keychain in Segovia that showed two pigs in a "makin' bacon" position .

Best REAL team: Athlétic de Bilbao...¡Aupa Athlétic!

CaliBasco,

You hit the nail on the head. Nothing but homegrown talent with Athlétic de Bilbao. They even have their minor leagues like we have in the States in baseball. Their only problem is, they are forced to go against the best talent in the world just to be competitive, and from a population that is what??? 6 million at most???

It's like rooting for the old NY Mets in baseball, when Casey Stengel was managing them. I remember him saying, "We ain't beat yet! The game hasn't even started." Of course the Mets highlight film that year was about three plays long, and Marvelous Marv Throneberry (everyone's castoff) was their most valuable player.

Malaga CF.... is that a high school team?

I actually support Espanyol in Spain, and Fiorentina overall in Italy, and not Atletico de Madrid para nada. I enjoyed the desperation of trying to buy Rayo Vallecano to get into the 1st. Pathetic.

And Barça - almost as bad as Real Madrid.

Oh dear, oh dear, Asterault! You've left yourself wide open for this.......Just to clear matters up, Malaga is the team that defeated Espanyol in Barcelona 2-1 a short while ago...remember?

Is that SMACK TALK I hear blowing up from the South there?

Espanyol was in a giving mood that day or else they were busy forging passports and visas for their foriegn players.

Actually we won two nil in Barcelona the year before AND if I remember rightly we shared four goals with Espanyol in Malaga in the return game........unfortunately, Espanyol didn't score any of them! (Oh dear, I am really enjoying this thread :p )
