Real Betis

[wizadry]

It's horrific... Like a scene from platoon. Best staying away until it is all over to be honest.

Probably some training ground in Portugual that has no atmosphere and miles from anywhere.

It would be nice if it was here though (4th biggest stadium in Spain)

I'd like our "new" kop to have Bill on it just like that chap.

Real Betis comfortably beat Real Madrid 0-2 earlier today.

They then sacked their manager after the match.

People think English chairmen are idiots... wow.

Would love to go to the game if it was in Seville. Mum lives not too far away, about an hours drive from Seville. Most of the people in the village she lives in see Betis fans. As people have said as well, it’s a great city too.

Am I correct in thinking that we played them once before in a pre season friendly? I’m thinking early 80’s.

You're not wrong, Seville is a great City and like you, l would have loved to have seen the Blades play at Estadio Benito Villamarín.

We played their city rivals Seville in a double header, I think we beat them 1-3 in Spain and drew 0-0 at the Lane. It was for them to get a better look at Morris and Edwards I think, I recall they were interested in both players.

Don’t worry about it, there’ll be other occasions mate, it’s a surreal occasion seeing the birth of your child.

See you in Portugal then.

For our first child I wasn't even allowed anywhere near. Emergency c-section under anaesthetic. Genuinely sat in the lobby of Jessops waiting for a phone call. So I saw nothing whatsoever. From what I've heard I might keep it that way again.

Midwife appointment next week so I might know more. It will literally be a last minute effort if I do go. I've more chance of Kaley Cuoco riding me like Seabiscuit.

Memory playing tricks on me, I remember the speculation about Edwards and Morris but got the Seville teams mixed up.

Arranged by Stephen Bettis?

Bravo...

Would love another piss up in Albufeira. But I got amorous with the Mrs 7 months ago so I can't go

how many have you got, if you have one called Mrs 7

 

[SUFC Guy]

how many have you got, if you have one called Mrs 7

I'm guessing at least 7

 

[DazBlade88]

I've followed Betis since around 2001, been over to watch them and been to some friendlies against the likes of Huddersfield, Stoke and Bournemouth. Pretty exciting for me and something I never thought would happen

 

[grafikhaus]

Why do we have to play these foreign teams why couldn’t we have a nice away friendly against Hartlepool

Inter Milan last season, Real Betis this season. Are Wednesday away at Mansfield again?

 

[SwissBlade]

I'm guessing at least 7

Perhaps its just the one, but they're planning 7, just working backwards...

 

[Jon Bon II]

Is that Bamber Boozle emblazoned in the seats?

(Kids, ask yer dad...)

If their supporters don't have a chant along the lines of "Woooah-oh Real Betis Bam-ber-lam" then they need to be asking themselves some serious questions.
