By: Steve | Comments 3 Comments

Hala Madrid! No, this isn’t about fans going to the tournament in Austria and Switzerland, I’m talking about the 8 Merengues who will be playing for national teams there – Sergio Ramos and Casillas for Spain, Pepe for Portugal, Cannavaro for Italy, Metzelder for Germany, and then the trio of Ruud, Robben and Sneijder [...]

Schuster Interview

By: Corey | Comments 9 Comments

Hey everyone, I have been very on and off lately with posting. I moved into my house this past week and just got internet hooked up today, so I was not really able to post any thing. Here is an interview from Schuster on Real’s website that I liked, with some candid banter from [...]

I had a very interesting comment on a post that I wanted to share with everyone and write a proper rebuttal to. I feel its pretty important an issue to state my opinion in a more formal manner than in the comments section. Here is the original comment from Mat:
Why cant[sic] Real Madrid scout, find, [...]

Monday Morning Grapevine

By: Corey | Comments 21 Comments

The season is officially over now, with a 5-2 win over Levante yesterday at the Bernabeu. It was an interesting game, Schuster opting not to play any of the underutilized elements of the squad. A strange decision, but we were treated to some flowing, free scoring football none the less. I do not want to [...]

Strike Puts Game In Jeoprady

By: Corey | Comments 17 Comments

Levante’s players have gone on strike on a few occasions this season. None have stuck and they have ended up playing their matches, but this weekend, it just may for a few reasons. The most obvious is that its the last game of the season, Levante has been relegated for awhile, and the players are [...]

What Should I Write About?

By: Corey | Comments 3 Comments

I Wish Upstate New York/Connecticut Looked Like This
So it is officialy summer for me, which means I have started out a little lazy with posting as I sleep copious amounts and workout like crazy. But I will go back to every-other-day Grapevine posts, and remember everyone, my 1 year anniversary writing here is at the [...]

Thursday Morning Hangover

By: Steve | Comments 16 Comments

HALA MADRID!!! I don’t have a real hangover, just a lingering joyous delirium.

I re-read my liveblog and it doesn’t grow old – i love the fact that we were the hungrier team, playing solid, stylistic, beautiful football, the type Barca used to play and only wishes now that they could play. What a [...]

Liveblog: Real Madrid v Barcelona – El Clasico!

By: Steve | Comments 26 Comments

HALA MADRID! Eto’o, cabron! Saluda al campeon! God, i LOVE that chant. Anyway, tonight is the somewhat anticlimactic second Clasico of the season, which will be broadcast here in the UK on Sky Sports 1 at 9pm GMT. Los Merengues have already sewn up the Liga title as I’m sure [...]
