LUNO you rock girl...luv Raul!!!thx for this super-wondrful topic

I ADORE HIM You're welcome

THE REFEREE HAS COST US LA LIGA IF WE DON'T WIN IT! :anger: :anger: :anger: :anger:

SO HAPPY WITH RAUL, HIS BACK TO SCORING FORM

THANKS LuNo

Thanks LuNo and Chic_Raul_ista!

I agree the ref ruined the game, if he hadn't called the first penalty (foul non-existent by the way) then the outcome of the game would have been totally different. But at least Raul scored and showed Capello he was wrong for having him play so far back in the other games.

Exactly!

Mamen, Jorge, Hugo and Raul's parents were in Santander to watch the game and they spent Saturday & Sunday in Santander. Let's hope we get pics

ALL I KNOW IS THE NEXT 8 GAMES WE MUST WIN.NO MORE SLIPUPS UNLESS WE GET DUMB REFS LIKE THE ONE IN SANTANDER. :anger:

thank you all for pics.
