My name is Armando, and I’m a blogger and podcaster at Forzafutbol.com. I’ve been covering the Spanish League pretty intensely over the last year for our growing podcast and in that time I have become a pretty intense fanatic of RCD Espanyol.
Yes, in that time I have gone to visit family that live in Barcelona and while I took the tour of the Camp Nou as all good tourists should, I actually caught a match at the Estadi Olimpic de Montjuic, saw the Periquitos play Deportivo La Coruna, and made lots of friends, rode the supporters buses up the hill from Plaça d’Espanya, made some more friends at the game, learned some songs, and walked right back down the hill through the beautiful park along the hillside back to the train station later on, that it all felt right to throw myself headlong into supporting them as my club.
So, while I haven’t been a staunch supporter for half my life, not even half the year actually, I think it’s never too late to pick a club in Spain, one of my favorite leagues, and wear the colors, laugh at your rivals and cheer on your team.
So, from here on in, I’ll try my best to connect with my fellow blanc-i-blau fanatics, bring the latest news and gossip to this blog, and try my best to bring awareness of one of the Spanish League’s oldest clubs to English soccer fans.
