Wobbly J Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 Spanish media reaction? Was it the foaming fountains or the beach ball violence against the 'living' statues in the square that provoked the baton charges? Did we even make the local papers on the Friday? The only thing missing from this sortie was the water cannons - is there an H2O shortage in Madrid at the moment? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators Carlos Posted February 24, 2008 Moderators Share Posted February 24, 2008 We did, I have a Saturday paper that covers continues the coverage. The only bit I understood was that we were all under the influence of alcohol, even the 8 year old kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skin Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) The only thing missing from this sortie was the water cannons - is there an H2O shortage in Madrid at the moment?Yes there is a water shortage in most of Spain not just Madrid...!!! The reports that I've seen say they are expecting AM to be fined and many AM fans have been critical of the policing, yet they are also saying BW fans had been throwing bottles etc and caused some of the trouble. In one of the main sport papers they are expecting UEFA to impose a ban on them. Edited February 24, 2008 by skin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
