That's the club I knew and loved before they broke into La Liga and became kinda competent lmao
Fuck Girona and what they stand for. Fuck all the clubs part of groups like the City group, Red bull, etc
Their new training facilities are looking good..
This is the "small" team with the same owners of Man city?
And few City talents went there because Pep told them he’ll give them a chance in the future at City.
It’s a City feeder team basically.
There has never been a single Girona to City player promotion ever. It's always the other way around where a City academy player or CFG affiliate club player gets sent to Girona for professional minutes before getting sold
Girona is a CFG affiliate player mill, not a City feeder team
Yes so don’t mind the hilariously Sunday league practice situation, they are not a fairy tale. They’ve spent 25 mil of infinite oil money!!!!
Yes but La Liga rules dont allow them to spend the way City spends.
...and are part of the Manchester City network of football clubs.
So is Girona's Cinderella year not just a product of them being a City Group owned team? Genuine question to those who know better, not an attempted slight against their success.
Honestly I’d be so excited to see a new team break into the upper crust in Spain (or anywhere in the world) but just like Leipzig, Newcastle, or City, it’s a bullshit rise fueled by financial injection. The players on Girona are doing a good job, full credit to them, but their rise can hardly be called organic.
Oh well, maybe Rayo can finally push into Europe instead of choking in March this season
Girona is an extremely underappreciated and underhyped team. They're leading La Liga and we're heading into December soon. I don't see nearly enough people and media outlets talking about them.
I have friends with a vacation home there. I went to visit them and you can buy tickets to their games super cheap at the receptionist for the gym there, and can even take a stroll by the training grounds. We didn’t play a lick of golf though.
Girona team's coach/captain is the anime protagonist. They have plot armour in this season to win the league.
Unió de Pagesos, l'Associació de Naturalistes de Girona i Salvem Vilablareix Rural ja han denunciat el procés al Síndic de Greuges i a la mateixa Comissió Territorial d'Urbanisme, per irregularitats
Literal farmer's league
Is this Catalan? It looks like un mézcla de español y francés
Catalan pronunciation is nowhere like French pronunciation though. It's far more similar to Spanish than it is to French
It looks like un mézcla de español y francés
That's the definition of Catalan
With some turkish sprinkled in there for good measure I think (not apparent in the text above though, but look at the Cant del Barça or even the word Barça)
People always say this but it's closer to Italian and Portuguese than French
