Day 12 - Favourite ever match?The day I stood in the stands singing with 30 thousand of my friends, as my team won at Wembley. It was ‘only’ the Johnson’s paint trophy and we kept it for one season; but that was enough.

I hadn't even started following Barca yet, but that's the clasico that I'll always remember, too, from the replays of the goals and the brawl afterwards.

*I* was sobbing for joy to see Iker sobbing for joy! I'd been watching him lose the WC for as long as I could remember. And I totally agree, it was ridiculous that Andres got carded for honoring Dani Jarque. Although he often seems to want to take off all of his clothes, for cameras even.

I'm very curious about the best way to go about this. If you can buy directly from the club when tickets first go on sale a few weeks before, that's probably least expensive. Although maybe if it's bad weather and a weak team you could get something cheap last-minute because scalpers can't get rid of their tickets...

It's kind of hard to forget, and took my a long time to come around to liking Ramos after that. My dad had considered taping it but didn't because "there won't be many goals".

I'm not a crier as a rule, but can totally understand that. If it was Steven Gerrard lifting the trophy I'd probably break down too (for the same reasons obviously). A captain is hard to find.
Andres is clearly a closet nudist. ;)

Yeah me too, will have to look into it. My folks are planning to visit over Easter, so we can plan ahead a bit with that.
