Time for Spain....
We have had a good "sporting year" this year.............
Spain won the european soccer championship (did the british ever qualify??  )
A Spaniard (Rafael Nadal) won the Wimbledon..
I hope it is time for a Spaniard to win the Open.
Garcia, Jimenez y Larrazabal - Animo muchachos!!
Viva España!

Repeat afer me...
The reign of Spain is mainly in the brain,

Seriously, an exceptional year for Spain  .
That Tennis match had to be one of the greatest matches ever played. Rafael Nadal was spectacular and deserving of the victory.

Yawn.  The "British" did not enter a team but England did not qualify.

Before I sit down to a veritable feast, can you just remind me how N.I got on.

Pass the biscuits and pour me another drop of that excellent Roija, old chap.

Shame.
We too raise the cup to our lips only to spill the contents down our shirt front.
But, at least your Manager was intent on the football, whilst ours was more intent on keeping his vanishing Barnet dry under an Umberella!!!!!!!!!!
