The Most Important Game
By: Cesar | 283 Comments
Tomorrow’s the second leg of our Copa Del Rey quarterfinal clash against the Andalucian Nightmares, Sevilla FC.
While everyone and their mother agrees finishing in the Top 4 in Spain’s La Liga should be our top goal, it seems the heads of Our Beloved would rather reap the rather minimal rewards of winning the Copa [...]

Another week, another game that fills our belly with anxiety and causes the gastric juices to run full boil.
This weekend, it was 19th place Real Mallorca. A 3-1 defeat and what can be said?
For starters, it appears coach Unai Emery’s decision to play a squad of reserves back fired to a degree. Although [...]

Back to the grind this weekend and it’s a hop, skip and jump over the Mediterranean Sea and into the city of Mallorca to meet 19th place Real Mallorca.

Yesterday’s 3-1 Copa Del Rey victory was one of those feel-good wins, a victory against an opponent (Racing Santander) who’s given us fits for seasons now (we hadn’t beaten them in 4 years) and who looked very good against us not only in the Cup but in the league (they beat us at the Mestalla [...]

No one said it would be easy, this Valencia CF supporter thing …
It’s much easier being a fan of Real Madrid, Barcelona or Chelsea. They’re financially solid, they have people in charge of the club with business acumen and they’re consistently in the Champions League.
Valencia? We’re financially adrift, we have guys trying to [...]

Derbies don’t often disappoint. And the Valencian derby between Valencia CF and Villarreal certainly didn’t, in what has to go down as the Best Game in Spain’s La Liga 2008-09.
Talk about a barbed-wire, steel cage match.
This was a barn burner. A good, old-fashioned Pier 6 brawl with the kitchen sink thrown in for good [...]
