A space to nail your colours to the mast, in favour of a brilliant city, with a great footballing history, and the best street in Europe (Las Ramblas).

As opposed to... them... :fingers:

Went last year and took in the derby whilst I was there.

Love it

Tot el camp
és un clam
som la gent blaugrana
Tant se val d'on venim
si del sud o del nord
ara estem d'acord, ara estem d'acord,
una bandera ens agermana.
Blaugrana al vent
un crit valent
tenim un nom el sap tothom:
Barça, Barça, Baaarça!

I feel, with my petit peu de francais, y espanol muy poco, i almost understand Catalan... but please give a translation, so we can understand as we share the joy of them stuffing the filthy septic pox... :D

It's brilliant when pumped out over the PR system at the Camp Nou

http://fc.barcelona.com/the_club/el_cant_del_barca
The whole stadium
loudly cheers
We’re the blue and claret supporters
It matters not where we hail from
Whether it's the south or the north
Now we all agree, we all agree,
One flag unites us in brotherhood.
Blue and claret blowing in the wind
One valiant cry
We’ve got a name that everyone knows:
Barça, Barça, Baaarça!

Sounds just like our supporters....One flag unites us in brotherhood etc.

Not unsurprisingly they have my support for the evening.

The thought of red bastards weeping three days after deluded Geordies is just too much to ask - can only see one winner here :-(

Been to Barca and enjoyed a game! Chosen to have my Stag Do there next year too. Awesome place & awesome club.

Tonight I'm very much a neutral and can't wait for a great game! Head says 2-1 United!

I couldn't give a shiney shite as to who wins, it's of no concern to me. I'm just hoping that it turns out to be as good a game as it potentially might.

Love the place. Not yet been to the ground.

Tip for trip to the city: learn four or five words (excuse me, please, thank you, sorry) in Catalan, not Castilian Spanish. Don't attempt to modulate your English accent – you're not trying to pass yourself off - but make it implicitly clear through your choice of language that you support their regional identity. You will be appreciated for it.

And I. See, unlike most of you whining one day Barca supporters, I've made the conscious decision not to have any Rag supporting friends, so I'm just looking forward to a game between two top, top teams which will hopefully live up to it's potential. It must be said however the thought of C.Ron crying is quite appealing.

Slipping dangerously close to Jamie Redknapp territory there, friend.
