Raval is an absolute dump - not too bad during the day but at night avoid.

I will have a spare ticket next to me for the Clasico. Gol Sud 3rd Tier. Face value €125 Wont be picking it up until either tomorrow or saturday so will have to arrange to meet. PM if interested.

Yes, it would be unusual for it not to be. Both sides have several days to prepare.

Tickets went on sale a couple of weeks mate for all but the Real Madrid game in October. http://www.fcbarcelona.com/info-tickets/next-matches-football

The Real Madrid tickets did not go on sale yet for some reason so its not as though they are sold out. You will definitely get tickets outside the stadium at least a couple of days beforehand but you will probably be asked to pay a ridiculous amount. The last couple of Madrid games had tickets...

4 years living in Madrid and I can honestly say the vast majority of Spaniards do not tip. When the waiter see's a foreigner their eyes usually light up. I usually leave 10% but on a rare occasion when service/waiter is poor I would leave nada!

You could argue Given is a brilliant keeper. He has never had a good defence in front of him his whole career yet has done remarkable. and as for crap national team they went through World cup qualifying undefeated and held the World Champions twice if I recall. The only other countries who...

Valdes last 18 months is definitely ahead of Iker. VDS has been class but I would go for Julio Cesar.

Anyone heard rumours of Henry not starting ? Doing the rounds on some other forums.
