Spain bus parade in Madrid

[Craig_H]

Anyone watching any of the footage (albeit brief) shown on SSN?

Absolutely superb occasion, 200,000 people apparently, lovely Spanish climate, tonnes of music and party atmosphere - would love to be there. I love Spain

Yeah, i think along the whole route, it'd be 1 million.

They mentioned 200,000 with regard to the location the bus was at precisely at that moment, but it must be far more.

Just watching them dancing on the stage now, in front of the masses - Fabregas repeatedly hitting Casillas over the head with an inflatable club or baseball bat or something - and Casillas looking distinctly unimpressed with it

[Craig_H]

Torres on the stage, holding up the World Cup trophy - and hanging from his hand is definitely an Atletico Madrid scarf and another scarf - i cannot make out for sure if it's a Liverpool one though.

Pepe has taken centre stage with the mic!

Puyol putting Fabregas in a Barcelona shirt.

I bet the Arsenal fans loved that

Where's 'gracious gunner' ?

[Craig_H]

The idiot SSN presenter keeps calling Reina 'Bepe' Reina

[IN_RAFA_WE_TRUST]

Will need to look out for this.Hopefully it's on later.
Someone was just back from Spain,this morning it was like a ghost town,no doubt everyone was nursing a hangover/siesta went into extra time

[Craig_H]

I'm sure Sky Sports News will keep playing the footage on loop, throughout the night.

[spanky]

All the arsenal fans are going mental over what happened, their planning on giving pepe grief at the opening game by the sounds of it.

[paulg]

Fabregas looked embarrassed.

Sky insist on calling Casillas "Eye-Kay", why do they persist in pronouncing foreign names incorrectly at every opportunity?

I was in London just after the World Cup and it was absolutely mental. Eros on Picadilly turned into a thronging mass of people, all the way up to the top, Trafalger Square was packed as well, some atmosphere.

Reminded me of a night in May in 2005!

Did Reina pull that Barca shirt on Fabregas? Imagine if Engerland players had pulled a Chelsea shirt on Gerrard around 2005? Ouch!
