It's the Real deal
Today finally saw all the rumours and expectations finally confirmed. Shamrock Rovers will play Real Madrid in a friendly match at Tallaght Stadium on July 20th.
...As you might imagine I'm bouncing all over the place knowing that it's definitely happening, and that no-one has managed to mess things up for us, like has happened to a few things that had been all-but-arranged. Add into that friendly matches against Hibernians FC and one other British football club, and the Summer of Football talked about for the mid-season break looks like being an amazing time.
It's a shame I most probably won't be part of the press pack filming the Real Madrid match (I'm still looking for ways to do this) but right now I'm just happy this is happening at all.
