Shut the fuck up goal.com

I read a lot of bullshit articles about a lot of stuff. Nothing gets me quite as pissed off as a person who blatantly doesn't know their penalty box from their center circle commenting on things that quite frankly, have got nothing to do with anything. See here for the evidence. The sentences that particularly stood out to me however were the following:

"Which is precisely why Madrid are still, yes still, in with a chance of winning the Spanish first division title for the third successive season. Which is why even after going 12 points behind at one stage and becoming a joke of a football club (and even a funnier joke than Valencia CF) they can still redeem themselves."

I like Real Madrid. I'm not a fan of them, but I like them. To call them a joke is beyond all explanation, because it wasn't that any of the La Liga teams were playing badly at the time. It's just, Barcelona really were THAT good. But the next part - that made me want to lash out and punch a hole through the nearest wall. Where the fuck do these people get off calling Valencia a joke of a football club?! They may not have the glamourous history the likes of Real Madrid and Barca do, and they may not be the most consistent of teams, but they try the best they can with the resources they have. Which resources, for the record, you goal.com assholes, have been pretty much nothing for the past god knows how long.

I personally don't appreciate the team I support being referred to as a joke. Of any kind. And to be quite frank, I don't find their situation in the slightest bit amusing. But of course, assholes like that guy wouldn't know that because they're not in it for the game, but rather for the money and the glamour the game brings with it. And you know, I'd like to point out that for a 'joke' of a team, Valencia did a pretty good job of showing Barca how football is SUPPOSED to be played when the two sides met on Saturday night. Only a fucking idiot referee stood between them and victory. Well, the referee and a certain blond defender who goes by the name of Alexis...
