lost and found in a riot.

Is it me or does it seem to be that when spring has sprung madness is not far behind, riots in my beloved city of Barcelona, last minute goals from left right and centre, men swimming with the boats of Cambridge and Oxford and clubs on the brink of something!  It is the time of year when the some games mean everything and other mean another Saturday not going round the shops (we will have plenty of that in the close season). The season has not been an easy one for Rovers and I for one know that the "at the death" goals have been saving us, and destroying my speakers thanks to the guys at Raith Rovers Abroad !

Enjoy! PLEASE SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL TE...

As the top leagues here in Bonny Spain were on strike for the start of the season my boyfriend (in pic) and I thought (well mainly me he just got roped in) that the fishes around Barcelona could do with a wee bit of an education.  Today's blog post comes from the match day programme of the 20th Aug 2011 Raith 1 - 1 Morton PLEASE SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL MATCH DAY PROGRAMME!! Paella and Bovril Vilassar de Mar is a small costal town a short drive up the road from Barcelona and has been more famous than London riots the past few days here in Catalonia’s capitals as Vilassar de Mar famous son is coming home, (when I was wrtiting this Barca were 99.9% sure he was signing). Cesc Faregas has re-signed for the club he left at 16.   After a 3 year “will he won’t he?” he is coming home and the ubiquitous   Twitter played its part again with Carlos Puyol and Gerard Pique announcing a big “welcome home” to Cesc on the famous networking site.   I have to say I am not a big “...
