CD Marino 2 CD Tenerife 1

Good turn out at the Oak before the game and top atmosphere. The game itself was a typical pre-season affair and to be honest from the distance you are behind the goal at the Las Americas Stadium you cannot see who the players are. Infact I think in the first half all 11 CDT players were new which excuses the ring-rusty nature of their game.
Second half was better(Tenerife brought on more of the main team) from a blanquiazul point of view and even though we lost 2-1 chances were created and the game should have been buried.
No problem in the defeat but there is still alot of work to do and another 5 players to sign.

Disappointing, but a difficult time for a completely new bunch of players to get something going.

More disappointing is the dangerous behaviour of the Frente with their effing flares.

[bonitatime]

They have a fair ammount of work to do to bring the team together but as Chris said the second half was better. It was a terrible shame the running track was damaged.

Yes, I agree it was a bit of a no-brainer to throw a flare on the running track (a patch melted :nono:). Apart from that I am a big fan of Pyro/smoke in the stadiums but detest it when fans launch them.
It is the Frente´s 25th anniversary (with the younger generation change that has taken place) and they want to make sure that they make their mark whenever CDT play this season.

I am sure we are still a big enough club to pay for the damage as CD Marino are only a small club obviously,that IMO is the right thing to do if you are the class act we hope we are.

What a great evening (apart from me drinking to much) Great to see those young uns still very passionate about there club , funny friendly!!! Good luck to everyone for the coming season:jumping::jumping:

[Fred Perry]

Cheers, nice to see you all again. You did not see a proper representation of the Tenerife side for this season, which is a shame as it was the only game you could get to.
We may be down but the passion stays (even if a few holidaymakers were a bit taken aback as they came off the beach by the flares etc....ha ha. All good natured stuff though.
Good luck to the Canaries.
