Calleti Meets The Fans, Bottle Service, Another RM – MUFC Match Up

Calleti took his turn signing autographs and posing with fans at the new Adidas store in Santiago Bernabeu. Quite a crowd as you can see – he seemed to really enjoy meeting people. This interaction with a wee woobins was very sweet.

Awwwwww! Too adorable.  He took a few minutes out to talk about the season.

Callejon signs autographs in the Bernabeu store

“The squad is in a good place and we’ll try to give it our all to finish out the season well”, said the Real Madrid midfielder

Jose Callejon received the support of the Real fans who visited the new Bernabeu Store to meet the Real player face to face this Tuesday. The midfielder signed autographs and took pictures with the club’s followers: “Making people happy is important. That’s why we’re here and it’s great that we can meet and that they’re happy. After everything we’ve done the store looks great and we hope people come to see it”. The home-grown player also spoke about the squad’s form: “The team is good. The year has started off well for us. We’ve made it to the next round of the Champions and we’ll try to give our all to finish out the season well”.

The Bernabeu Store was packed with fans who wanted to meet Callejon, and the player signed shirts, posters, balls, cards and even backpacks, showing his appreciation for the warm reception: “It’s important to feel the fans’ support. It’s clear that we try to do the best we can for ourselves, but then come the fans and the people, who also suffer a lot and it’s important for them”.

Real Madrid is in top form ahead of the next clash on Saturday that pits the Whites against Mallorca in the Bernabeu (8:00 p.m., C+ Liga and Gol T). “We’ve have to push on. We can’t rest on the past few weeks. We have to keep going match by match to finish out the season well”, concluded Callejon.

GFSports located some pictures of Real Madrid players past and present (with bonus added Falcao thrown in) on the Flickr stream of Vin Dore 24K. The site says the images are “from between 14 May 2010 & 27 Aug 2012” (many other celebs are represented) but as you can see from Sergio, this puts the RM players pictures back at the early end of that time frame. It’s the Night of the Green Jeans. Knowing that he’s wearing mandals just out of frame makes the picture even more poignant for me.

Iker was hanging out with his buds relaxing on his time off. Mesut said he was planning on watching some Champions League, which apparently required him to wear his sunglasses. Inside. At night.

Real Madrid will meet Manchester United again – for charity. Our legends will be playing their legends on June 2nd.

Real Madrid’s legends will face Manchester United’s on 2 June at Old Trafford

Butragueño, Amancio and Iván Helguera represented Madrid at the presentation of the match

The Real Madrid veterans will take part in a benefit match on 2 June against Manchester United old-boys. Old Trafford will be the stage for the special match, which was presented in Manchester and where Butragueño, Amancio and Iván Helguera represented Madrid. The Red Devils were represented by Andy Cole, Bryan Robson and Dwight Yorke.

Real Madrid will take part in a charity initiative with Manchester United again, a year after the last time they did. The takings from this match will go to the British team’s foundation. Robson spoke enthusiastically about this match at the presentation event: “Last year’s match was fantastic and we are planning to repeat it for our foundation. It will be a great day for the whole family and it will be a lot of fun, but the most important thing is to raise awareness and raise money for a very worthy cause”.

And that’s all for me now. Don’t forget that the Tishies Part II polls close tonight at midnight. There were some 11th hour votes last night and some surprising winners for Part I!
