Updated: Bad Defeat “ A tricky away game “

Sun Mar 01, 2020 10:28 am

For those interested :bluescarf:


Atletico Baleares suffer a bad defeat away 2nil to Gijon near the bottom.
But thankfully nearest rivals Ibiza lose as well :thumbright:


Atletico Baleares Spanish Segunda B ( League 3 )

It’s 57 years since last promoted to La Liga 2 :bluescarf:

A tricky away game today.

I appreciate that they're your second favourite team and you have quite an interest in them. However, could you not indicate in the topic title that it is Athletico Baleares related?
I have an agonisingly slow Internet connection here in China and it's frustrating to finally open up a thread only to discover it's not about Cardiff (which is why I come on this board after all) but some team in Spain who I have zero interest in!

Lots of twists n turns yet Annis.

I would rather lose that game than lose the Play-Off Games!

To be fair, the Sunday Baleares thread has become a bit of a feature on this Forum and lots take interest in it; particularly after last seasons near miss on promotion

You are on this Forum often enough to know that and taking time out to moan about it (when you could be reacting to the stuff that actually interests you) shows that maybe your internet connection isn't as poor as you'd like to make out?

Unlucky for Atletico Baleares today but they are still up there and in control of their own destiny. Even the best lose the odd game, e.g. Liverpool yesterday, but I'm sure they'll shrug that off and move on quickly...

Baleares must do the same! :bluescarf:

Personally I am looking forward to catching a flight out to watch them

Just need to somehow plan it around work and family!

Thank you Chris, :thumbright: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:
You’ve explained well and many have asked about them on here and on Fb & Twitter.
One topic a week and there is always someone. I put out 80 plus Cardiff topics a week.
This is a football forums.


Hopefully Atletico will bounce back stronger :thumbright: :bluescarf:

2 massive games then mate. Hopefully Balearas fans will bring the noise and push the players to get 2 victorys.
Fingers crossed :bluescarf:

If we take you, as a moderator, out of the equation (seems your main purpose was to rebuke me anyway), there were just three other contributors to this thread, which was suitably 'padded out' by the OP himself with a post count of thirteen! So not quite the level of interest you claim.

As for reacting to stuff that interests me? Yeah, that is the whole point of my post! if it had been made clear that this was a non-Cardiff City related topic (not difficult to do) I would never have opened it up in the first instance and could have "reacted to the stuff that actually interests me". I complained because, as you well know, many of these Athletico Baleares post headings are often very ambiguous (cynics would say deliberately so to gain hits), messageboard users have absolutely no idea that they aren't about the City until they open them up.

You're speculating that my Internet connection isn't as poor as I make out? ... how about download speeds as low as 200 bytes/sec at times of the day, slow enough for you? Fella.

I dont usually post on Baleares threads. However, i would like to make the point that lack of posts on a thread does not indicate lack of interest in it.

I regularly read the posts about this ckub which I see as 'Cardiff Citys little brother'. It also makes a change to be able to read (normally) positive posts about football!

Alan, on fb, with this link it gets dozens of replies and your the first ever to moan.
You seem to have plenty of time to moan.
Plus many stickies dont even get replies.
Honestly NO problem in you finding another Forum if your not happy :thumbright: :bluescarf:

No one forces you to to come on here, I wont be changing how I post.

This forum has stuff posted about many different topics.
