Haven't been that impressed with Bellingham.

Not been great the last few rounds for Real but you won’t hear that from the media

 

Over the moon for him, mind. From playing at Stourbridge to winning the champions league in like what 5/6 years? Good on him.

Make me laugh when folk over here reckon it’s because of security and policing we can’t have good fan culture over here. Yet every time europeans come over they shit all over us. 

But they won't be tracked and given 3/5 year banning orders like fans for an English club would be?

 

Lads who have done smoke bombs or flares in European away ends for us have ended up receiving banning orders from LCFC not long after their return home.

Let’s hope he can have a couple of weeks rest and win another European competition in the summer

That’s because folk from here just pull pyro out and expect not to be caught. Every single one of them who lit one up at Wembley tonight would have their face covered. It’s just as “illegal” for them to do it tonight as it would’ve been if say Leeds done it last Sunday.

Would BVB or the German FA actively hunt them out back in Germany though, then give them a ban?

 

They're obviously miles better at it, but I feel like the English fans face so many more obstacles.

Growing up watching Madrid in the early 00s to like 2010 I swear they used to win about 1 trophy every 2/3 years. Now they're winning a CL every 2 years, as well as multiple other honours.

 

Growing up they won in 1998, their first in over 30 years. Then after winning the 2002 one they went over a decade to win it again. But yeah these days they win it every other year seemingly

I remember them winning when I was in my early teens and it was the first they'd won in like 30 years. Think they've won seven or eight since then.

Nope. You'd potentially do time for getting caught in Germany.

 

They're just a trillion times better at it because they're organised to fvck and aren't from a country full of lettuces who whinge about not getting bottlecaps into grounds but who also think Ultras are "cringe".

 

The fact they pulled that tonight in London shows that the only obstacle to more pyro going off in England is English fans themselves.

Throughout all of the Champions Leagues Real Madrid have won in the last 15 years, I don't think they've ever been that tactically great. They just have a culture of winning. It just goes to show the importance of mentality.

Fair do's, thought with how common it is over there it's allowed.

UK media will still try and tell you that Man United are the biggest club in the world. 

Five times as many European Cups for Real than Man United. Staggering.

Horncastle, who wasn't chosen for TNTs coverage, summarises the whole thing pretty well in a few of his tweets. I've quoted 2 here that add context to what seems like them being inevitable

Are they still heavily backed financially by the Spanish government?

No - it’s illegal for club’s to receive state backing in the EU
