During the 50th anniversary celebrations of the PB de Vilanova de Bellpuig and the sixth meeting of the Penyes de Lleida sud i la Franja central, the President made a point of reminding the supporters of the “immense respect that our players and our manager have earned” and echoing his comments in Andorra on Saturday, he asked for the fans to: “make the optimism about our wins last -we have come through a period of suffering and I don’t want us suffering so much”. That’s why the President has also insisted that he will talk about Wembley as much as possible over the next few days.

Key is to keep on working

Sr Rosell drew attention to the success the various sections have enjoyed of late and reminded the supporters that “we have worked hard to keep all that we have”.
