Editorial: Visca Mallorca!

|

REAL Mallorca, as their name suggests  is a very Majorcan outfit, but it now has an international flavour in the form of its new Oxford-educated German chairman and owner Utz Claassen. The new owner  wants to bring the local community together on the island under one flag, that of  Real Mallorca Football Club. And I think he will be successful. This week, to celebrate the new era at the club, the Bulletin joined forces with Mallorca to offer our readers a taste of Real Mallorca with a ticket giveaway. It proved to be a huge success. I was also pleased to notice some of the messages which accompanied the entries to the giveaway. One reader said that it had been many years since he had watched Real Mallorca and was looking forward to returning to the Son Moix while another said that she was coming straight from the airport to collect her tickets! One regular Real Mallorca fan wrote on our Facebook site that he was prepared to give ticket winners a helping hand at the ground if they were not sure of its layout.  It is the dawn of a new era at Real Mallorca and hopefully the local foreign community will also get involved with the local soccer club. And a warning to our Real Mallorca correspondent,  long time fan Monro Bryce;be careful what you shout at the game tomorrow Monro, there will be some people in the ground who will understand you! And the best of luck Mallorca, make us proud and take three points.
