La Liga 2013/14

[Proelia]

Incredible achievement by Atletico, made up for Simeone and his lads! Barcelona, aka sanctimonious holier-than-thou High Priests of the Church of Tiki-Taka, in the legendary words of Fanzone Danny: Take it, take it, take it. Amen.

Yea because the diving, cheating racists are so much better

Regarding racism, unfortunately, in Spain the teams are not at Premier League level regarding stifling racism, you only have to go to the Dani Alves Banana Incident to see it's not only Atleti that have primitive goons as fans. Racism in football is never to be condoned or excused, however in this case it's a Spanish problem, not an Atletico problem. If you are referring to cheating and diving, I believe you'll be throwing stones in your glass house if you are a Barcelona fan, as Busquets, Pedro, Neymar et al are all living warning signs for "No Diving".

Im a city fan, im just sick of this atletico are holier than thou bullshit, they have somehow managed to paint themselves as

Lol :) Atletico are winners because they worked harder than any other opponent on the pitch. No big names, or no Galacticos as Real would say. If Atletico didn't win it was because they did not fight hard enough. If Barca (or Real, for that matter) didn't win, it was always because of injuries or the referee or an agenda. Just check how many times has Simeone showed up in the headlines saying they were robbed compared to Barca or Real.

Any City fan should want Atletico to win for obvious reasons. They don't paint themselves as anything of the sort. I did go off them a bit for the racism earlier in the season against Marcelo but there was racism back at Maine Road back in the day, Spain is just behind us in regards to this

I assume its a member of the royal family then. Hope he has a good reason. Hopefully see Atletico lift the Champions League trophy next weekend instead then.

Nope, the Spanish Football Federation’s president, Angel Maria Villar is "travelling" so he couldn't attend the title deciding match so Atletico won't get presented with the trophy til next season...

Just lifted off the Beeb's Twitter feed;

If true (and I'm not sure why they'd pluck figures from thin air), then that is bizarre.
