I honestly thought nothing could top 2017 for sheer fuckery. To that, 2018 said “Hold my beer.” Real Madrid-wise, there were highs (Decimotercera for one thing) and lows (the departures of Zizou and Cristiano, our current confusing form, etc.) but through all of it, we persevere. Continue reading
Watishing Into 2018
31 DecLord almighty, what a year it’s been. I wish it could say it was a good one, but let’s be honest, overall it wasn’t. There was so much turmoil – even more than we could have anticipated. Along with the fear, anger and heartbreak, there were some things to celebrate though… Continue reading

Happy Birthday Nando!
20 MarNando turns 33 today! Hard to believe, isn’t it? So glad to see him back on the pitch after that nasty head injury. Feliz cumpleaños, Fernando!
Watishing Into 2017 (And The Unknown)
31 DecMan, I don’t know about you, but I am happy to see the back of 2016. What a shitty year it was in so many ways. Another thing that I am happy to see the back of is…Nando. As is our tradition, we end the year with his arse since he was our first post ever on New Year’s Eve 2010. (2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2015) And holy hell, that makes us 6 years old! Hard to believe. Our official birthday (when the blog became public) is January 16, so we’ll celebrate then. But thank you so much for sticking with us through good times and bad. Special thanks to mygypsyspirit, hopechaser and the other watisihista correspondents for all their help keeping this place afloat. It hasn’t been easy.
I feel like we’re going into the great unknown for 2017. There’s so much turmoil and upheaval and uncertainty. I’m sending good thoughts out to the universe for peace, good health and prosperity for us all.
Wishing you and yours every good thing in the coming year,
Lozil

Hala Madrid y nada mas!
