Well, I want to see us, good morning, good day, wherever you are.

Good evening, if you're near the half of the hemisphere.

This is getting interesting.

And that's true.

There's no need to set up the dossier, as they used to say.

In conquering Europe and Spain last season, a feat that they manage in the same

Temporada, very rarely, butid only lost twice, both of them,

to Athletic on Madrid.

This season, after last night's defeat at San Mames,

remember it had now lost five times,

three times in the Champions League,

twice in the lake, once the battle in the Classic Union.

That's next match at San Mahmes was pulsating, volcanic.

It used to be the case when there were armed terrorists in the Basque country, killing people, acting in my view disgracefullyfully even though they believed they had a purpose

that merited it never true the Basque country used to be not just a hostile place but a dangerous

place for the big teams to go to that era thankfully is long long past the power, the pugnacity of the Basque identity,

and almost say particularly an athletic, where they still refuse to play or recruit in the playing

staff, anybody who's not a Basque, that identity remains aggressive and jagged when Barcelona or

Aletti or particularly Roman had come to town.

The two-one win for Valverdi's Leone's Los Leones, amongst the multitude of nicknames that go

around in Spanish.

But well, the lions, I really like. They were playing at the Cathedral.
