Madrid win La Liga and sack the coach

I haven’t posted anything for months but I have to say I’m outraged to see Real Madrid keep committing the same mistakes. This time its even worse, not only are we sacking coaches every year but we’e sacked the coach that made Real Madrid a team again and ended our 4 year drought.

The Spanish Press

The Spanish press, especially Marca, is determined to get rid of Capello, aside from the constant shower of critism that has no end and is quite tiring to read, it runs rumors of his resignation, his wanting to resign for a payout to free him from his contract, the club being sick of him, etc. [...]

Champions League is Upon Us

In the past 2 league matches Real defeated Real Sociedad 2-1 through a David Beckham free kick and a Van Nistelrooy finishing header and drew to Betis in a 0-0 scoreless draw. The club is still suffering from a lack of goal scoring ability and is definitely missing Ronaldo, who scored 2 this weekend with Milan. [...]
