Saxum Posted June 11, 2021 Author Posted June 11, 2021 Just a note. My Spanish is rudimentary, mostly I use it to curse Spanish telemarketers very effectively, so the text I posted was from Google translate.

Expand Olives are gross. 🤮 I get your point and wouldn't want to lose a home game for it but they have to travel to Seattle or Western Europe, it's not that much of a difference, they arent flying Spirit. I am actually in favor of the 17th game being played at netural international site followed by a bye in addition to another bye week in schedule 1

BritBill Posted June 11, 2021 Posted June 11, 2021 (edited) Went to Madrid and the Bernabeu in November 2005. It was quite cold. So I took the big coat to the match. 5 minutes in sat in the top tier and I was sweating like a hippo in power shower. Looked up and there were heaters in the stand roof. Should’ve worn shorts and t-shirt. Madrid won 5-0. Goal scorers were Figo, Ronaldo (the original) x 2, Beckham and Owen. Lovely stuff. Edited June 11, 2021 by BritBill 1
