ponsaelius Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 I was also kinda hoping Las Palmas could sneak up via the play-offs, but its looking unlikely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted May 30, 2013 Share Posted May 30, 2013 That's his level, imho. Seen him play a few games. Does the "fox in the box" role well and he's a fairly big lad, but nowt else. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Village Idiot Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Barça to hold a referendum regarding the future of Camp Nou in the first quarter of 2014, according to our board spokesman. They expect to unveil the possible alternatives in the future months as they talk to developers/investors. Apparently they no longer favor knocking it down.

Village Idiot Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 It's old, and needs extensive renovations. So extensive that the option to tear it down and build a new one from scratch has been put forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 VI, is it hard to get tickets for Barcelona games? Especially early in the season? Maybe it might become impossible now with Neymar and Messi there, but thinking of going to Barcelona at the end of August possibly and would love to catch a game.

Village Idiot Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 Depends on the games, but unless it's a Clásico/big CL tie, it's pretty possible. Late August should definitely be easy since a lot of people will still be on holidays and attendances reflect it. Drop me a line if you come over here, might be on holidays myself but otherwise it'd be fun to hook up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan Posted June 12, 2013 Share Posted June 12, 2013 Las Palmas drew 1-1 with Almeira in the semi final play off first leg. Not a bad result, we picked up a win away there in the league season so it's doable. VI - Have you heard anything in Spain about the Las Palmas player that got stretchered off? Was out cold for a good 5 minutes, looked pretty serious. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Gutted. Las Palmas beaten in the play off semi final, conceded in the 122nd minute of extra time, awful mistake by the keeper. They were down to 9 men by that point though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Saw the game, it was magnificent drama. Sending offs, a missed penalty in ET. Great watch for a neutral, if gutting for Las Palmas. Girona beat Alcorcón comfortably and will square off against Almería. I think Almería are the better team, but there's always hope Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tooj Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 VI is Dongou expected to make the step up to the first team this year? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Village Idiot Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 No, but he's still 18. I don't think he'll make it myself, however. Prototypical example of player that scored 200000000000000000 goals at youth level due to his athleticism but isn't good enough for the real stuff. Samper has been promoted to our B team this year, incidentally. He's been my favorite prospect for years, dying to see if he can cut it at a professional level.

Geordie Ahmed Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Samper looks a real talent, very much like Xavi in that he makes the game look so easy when he plays Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mole_Toonfan Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 Samper has seemingly been hyped since he was about 12 i even seen the term Catalan Pirlo used to describe him a few times. Won't actually get to see him in action until like the u21s though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

colinmk Posted June 27, 2013 Share Posted June 27, 2013 I wonder if Dongou was the player I noticed when I was over in Barca a few years back, playing for the u14s or u16s on tv and was immense. Scored and set-up pretty much all the goals and looked amazing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
