OHL playing away at Standard tomorrow, standard currently first, haven't lost a single game (didnt drew either) haven't even conceded a goal yet.
And last season when they were in crap form they beat us 4-0, let's just say I'm not looking forward to the game

My bad the game is actually today, I'm so scared

The season starts for Mallorca today. An away game against Sabadell.
Sabadell has traditionally been a club that moved between the 2nd and 3rd level in Spain, although they had a golden age in the 70s when they achieved things such as finishing 4th in top flight and play the EL. After that they slowly began to sink until falling to the 4th level. But in recent years the club has began to grow again, they climbed back to the 3rd level, and then were promotoed to Segunda 2 years ago. Their goal is to avoid relegation, but they have an interesting team with a healthy looking project that is expected to make the club grow and fight for promotion to Primera some time soon. Malorca should win, but it won't be easy.
The shit news for us this week is that we've loaned Javi Márquez, one of our star players, to Elche (recently promoted to Primera). The idea behind this is that we can save the money we'd be spending on his wage on the wages for 2 new players, and then have Márquez back next year. Now this could make some sense if we had another creative midfielder aside from Márquez in the team... but we don't... there's a promising youngster but he has no experience above the 3rd level and there's no guarantee he will live up to the expectations. Also one of the two players the board was expected to sign in exchange for this move has signed for some turkish club... so yeah, it looks like yet another retarded move by Lorenzo Serra Ferrer. We still have the best team in Segunda, but if Serra keeps making retarded decisions and weakining the team for no reason, the season will be much harder than it should be.
I'll be rooting for your boys to get the win
