really thought lisbon would be hard to beat this season,however this one has to go down,apart from the result,as one of the best ever,have we ever been treated with such great respect by any other european club,in all the years i have been going i dont think so..
how fantastic was it to be finally treated like adults and only having to wait 10 minutes to be allowed to leave the ground,to be greeted once again by a guard of honour of hundreds of atletico supporters,absoluteley bloody brilliant,it brought a shiver to my spine....
another quality stay at the praga,loads of reds staying there,great atmosphere in the surrounding bars..as you can see in the photos superb nite in the red corner on the wednesday nite,great to meet up with loads of the lads of rawk,inc,harry,paul,gareth...
thursday lunch was spent at the plaza mayor in the sunshine,nice to see the weather people getting the forecast completly wrong again,temps in the 70's..
some of the lads who drove over,wayne ,mike,neil,interviewed by channel 5,bloody deserved it to,over 32 hours in the car overall...
no problems getting into the ground this time,think the spanish police knew how to treat us after the last game there...
as i said earlier all in all apart from the result one of the best ever..
muchos gracias to the fans of atletico...
