We’re celebrating our 50th edition of our “Ultras Aufkleber of the Week” feature with a gratuitous collection of some awesome designs from a wide spectrum of ultra groups and a rundown of the do’s and don’ts of sticker etiquette.
We at FBTG would like Continue reading
It is safe to say that Málaga CF is a big club that has fallen out of the company to which it belongs. A deserved La Liga stalwart if there ever was one, a dismal 2017/2018 campaign saw Málaga finish in last place and suffer relegation to La Segunda.

One of the things that I lament about British and certainly English Football culture is the distinct lack of the amount of scarves that one sees on the terraces. As their heroes walk out onto the pitch in Seville, Stuttgart and Szczecin, fans Continue reading
