    Just switched SS1 on to watch Rayo Vallencano vs Real Madrid and it has been postponed at the last minute...
    The Reason.... the club forced ST holders to pay an extra 20-30 euros for this particular match and the fans went nuts.
    There were protests and the electrical cabling for large parts of the ground was cut. They are saying it may get played tomorrow but there will be sanctions...

    imagine if Ashley did that for the Mackems game!

    One out of the thousands has got to be a lawyer, surely... You're never more than 3 feet away from one...

    P.s
    The way the Euro is going, why didn't they ask for something useful, like turnips... or badgers?

    After much confusion and conflicting stories, the match between Rayo Vallecano and Real Madrid has officially been postponed after power to the stadium was cut by fans.

    The match was originally scheduled for a 3:30 EST start time, but roughly 45 minutes before kickoff stories began breaking that lightening around Vallecas had caused power to go out, causing the match to be delayed.

    However, it was later learned that fans had allegedly cut power to the the stadium as part of a week-long boycott against ticket prices.

    Ridiculous but fair play to the fans. Stick it to the man!!!

    The image of the Real Ultras just standing in a corner singing at an empty stadium has brightened up this rainy day for me haha.
