Every pig has its Martinmas

When Europa played over at Sant Andreu in November, the local Four Bar Squad, which has record, unveiled a banner showing another local saint, St Martin, in wolf costume slaughtering a pig dressed as one of Europa’s following (they believe they’re tigers, not pigs, but whatever):

Sant Andreu duly murdered Europa 3-0. The return is this Sunday at 12:00 at Europa’s mini-stadium at Sardenya. The Sant Andreu fans have announced that they will walk en masse, that is to say all 20 of them, all the way from the 74 bus stop. St Martin once offered to stand between Roman and barbarian armies. I’ll be there.

  • 22 de març de 1919 Alta cultura. Les coses, Ă©s clar, haurien pogut Ă©sser diferents… En acabar el batxillerat, la meva intenciĂł no fou pas d’estudiar per advocat. M’hauria agradat mĂ©s d’estudiar quĂ­mica, i per tal de servir el que jo creia que era la meva vocaciĂł, vaig matricular-me al preparatori de Ciències. Matricular-se! Prenguin nota de la parauleta!
