Hi Cougar. Very first person I met outside the ground before the game was another Dons fan from Glasgow. Bizarre. Yeah I watched that official Valencia FC band parading round the ground I was where you were before the game up until about an hour before the game. I then went to another wee bar near gate B(my entrance) at the Aragon Metro station. I was meant to be in secttion 774 in the top tier which would have been above where you were sitting but sat where i wanted really as there were so many empty seats. I thought Girona looked really impressive early on and it was no surprise when they took the lead. Their number 3's persistence on the left wing paid off and he sent over a peach of a cross for their goal. I thought he had a good game. Also thought Girona might have snatched an equaliser near the end. Did you go into Manolo's bar? Did you speak to him? There were a crowd of Germans going to watch the game and I spoke to some Finnish guys who were part of a Valencia supporters club in Finland! Crazy. Yeah I thought the food and beers were cheap and as I have said in a previous post would go back. Did you go to the beach? One of the biggest beaches in the whole of Europe. Was just a shame about the rain in the second half, but that thunder and lightning storm made sure i stayed in the wee bar at 1 Euro a beer until it was over.
