This weekend
the duopoly reaches a new height. The SHEEP are out in force as there is a new
round in their battle; Barcelona B versus Real Madrid B. The “mini-classic” as
the sports press is calling it.
Now you may
have seen that when I put the Segunda table up here, neither of these 2 sides appears
(unless they are in a relegation spot). Why? Because they only serve the
adulterate the competition. They can’t be promoted….so what the hell are they
doing in the division? The game guarantees a full house at the “Mini Estadi”.
Live TV at prime time. And, ridiculous as it sounds, I’m sure this will keep some
people away from other games. There are games at Xerez, Alcorcón, Numancia and
Mirandés, at the same time, and these could suffer as the sheep amongst their
support prefer to snarl and spittle at the TV in perpetuation of the rivalry
that diseases the rest of the game in Spain.
It’s a
rivalry I refuse to accept. You see Madrid and Barcelona fans that are more fervent
anti-Madrid or anti-Barcelona than pro their chosen side. They both seem to
despise the other, yet they have become exactly what they despise. Like
shouting and waving their fist in a mirror that just looks back at you with a
different colour shirt. The two are TWINS.
Outside of Madrid
and Barcelona, support Madrid and you support Barcelona. Support Barcelona and
you support Real Madrid. Just my opinion.
