On tour in Southern Spain-but where’s the football ?

Well, here we are in southern Spain, looking forward to the first game on Wednesday against a Malaga under 23 team.

However, rumour has it that it isn’t going ahead and that an alternative match is being sought. Ho hum !

I’m at the La Cala Resort which took us about 45 to get there from Malaga Airport. Mountains at the rear, and the sea the other way. Haven’t quite got my bearings yet, but it seems to be about halfway between Marbella and Malaga, in the general area of Fuengirola.

The suns out and its pretty warm for early morning. Must go down to the pool, and see if I can find what’s going on with Wednesday’s game !

The golfers are out already. Mad lot.

An update on the Wednesday game. It now seems to be against a Gibraltar XI. Sounds as if it’s going to be a pub team. No idea of the kick off time yet. Probably at closing time.

Who arranges these friendlies ? First the Swindon game is cancelled and now Malaga U23.   Now……On to Gibraltar.
