    * *! Can you imagine the meltdown if that happened in Scotland?! Imagine Celtic won the league on the last day of the season but we weren't presented with the trophy until the start of the following season because Neil Doncaster was away on holiday somewhere.

    * moderating this forum that day! :smiley-laughing002:

    I was glad to see Barcelona come up short but fair play to their fans for applauding Atletico Madrid after the final whistle. I thought that was quite classy under the circumstances. I know I wouldn't be applauding the other team if someone came to Celtic Park on the last day of the season and beat us in a title decider.

    Would imagine the Atletico board will have arranged some sort of celebration at their own ground today?

    I'm not having a go at you personally but I am sick of people calling Real Madrid the Spanish Huns. They have * all in common with them.

    Atletico Madrid aren't new winners btw. That is their 10th La Liga title.

    So pleased for Atletico, they deserved it. CL final should be amazing as Atleti have ridiculous belief and momentum but Real, or more to the point Ronaldo, will be utterly desperate to win, can see it being a classic final and not a bore like finals normally are.

    It's only recently in Spain that they've started presenting the trophy on the last day, for many years it was done on the first game of the season.

    Read a bit about their history. Surprisingly they actually have quite a lot in common.

    Well, I wanted Barcelona to win this, but, it is nice to see a change in La Liga, Barcelona and Real domination became boring, but, Messi's goal...It can be discussed.
    Fair play to Barcelona fans who were applauding after the game.:50:
    Nice stuff from Atletico fans who show support to Turkish miners and their families. Filipe Luis with the Turkish flag, very nice gesture.

    Every team has scummy players. Every team has * fans. Not every Real Madrid player and fan is a scumbag or an *. Your generalising.

    I'm just glad you never hit me with the Franco's team bullshit :smiley-laughing002:

    Atletico deserved to win the title this season, they have been nothing short of phenomenal. I think everyone, myself included thought their bubble would burst eventually, but it just never happened. It has to go down as one of the best title wins ever in my opinion, especially when you look at the teams that they finished above. Simeone must surely win World Coach of the year, regardless of the outcome in the CL Final.

    Agreed. I wanted Barca to do it, as well, but in the end it simply comes down to anyone but the Kingsmen.

    I'm hoping for a Bilbao revival next season. Love the Basque.
