Getafe set for Team Dubai rebrand April 19, 2011 Email Print By ESPNsoccernet staff The mystery surrounding the Spanish Primera Liga club set to be bought by Dubai firm Royal Emirates Group has lifted, after a spokesman confirmed that Getafe are the club on whom €90 million will be spent. Team Dubai GettyImagesMadrid-based Getafe are set for a slightly new identity • La Liga side set for Team Dubai rebrand "It is Getafe... we will announce it in a big way tomorrow," Suleiman al Butti, project manager of Royal Emirates Group, told Reuters. Early reports had indicated that the club in question was Real Zaragoza and suggested that the cash-strapped outfit would be renamed 'Team Dubai' but a spokesman denied that rumour to ESPNsoccernet and said: "It is a Spanish La Liga division side. The team will not be renamed but it will be titled as '[club's name] Team Dubai' in order to deliver the message that Dubai care." Getafe Team Dubai seems likely to be the new monicker, and the club's chairman and a number of players are due to arrive in Dubai on Wednesday and the grand announcement is set to be made on Thursday. The deal would be the third for a La Liga club involving a non-Spanish buyer in the past year following the sale of Malaga to a member of the Qatari royal family and the purchase of Racing Santander by an Indian businessman. Getafe are 14th in La Liga, and in danger of relegation. In recent years, Getafe have twice been runners-up in the Copa del Rey, and reached the UEFA Cup quarter-finals in 2007-08. Last season saw them qualify for the Europa League but the team, managed by Real Madrid legend Michel, exited the competition at the qualifying stage to Cyprus APOEL.
i think their fans just hate their own name. every time that make an international tournament they change their name to Eurogeta. so they're probably cool with it but yea this better not become a pattern.
Really not sure what this ad is trying to do. **El Ruso de Rocky - Getafe, Koala** Translation: Guy: I tried my best in the match yesterday. I shouted, I cried, I laughed. I emptied my guts. I think I don't have feelings anymore. Koala: Without feelings? Listen to this. Song: I'm blind, I'm tiny and I run slow. I always wanted to love and be loved. But my wife keeps me in bed with her plush toys while she loves somebody else. Koala is my name and miserable my surname. Because of being hairy I bleed when I shave. When I jump my rotula dislocates without reason. When I love deeply my heart shatters. I like masked superheros. I guess I'm a damn midget full of complexes. If all this wasn't enough, I got another big problem. When I'm happy I look like a fucking idiot. Girl chorus: Poor animal with 42 centimeters of unhappiness. Koala: Were you moved? Guy: No. Claim: GETAFE. Empty of feelings. Until next season.

Spain is tight. Was watching the news the other day and they were interviewing these highway prostitutes. They were interviewing them from behind so as not to reveal their identity. All of a sudden they just pan back to show her naked ass before panning back in to continue the interview. It was awesome.
