This was the clubs only La Liga title victory to date with a ground capacity of 7,000 so an amazing achievement.

To commemorate the achievement POCMF Rep. Alan McLean will be on 'The Pat Kenny Radio Show' from 10:30am tomorrow morning.

So if you have a pint,a glass of wine or a whiskey chaser in your hand tomorrow. feel free to toast the one known as 'Don Patricio'.........................

For those interested in memorabilia Real Betis kindly donated a La LIGA Betis shirt '35 O'Connell' signed by the current squad and club officials yesterday.

The shirt is available to bid for - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/131498072355

Colm Farry was presented with the shirt at last nights celebrations by the Club President Juan Carlos Allero.

So he kept me soul for ransom.
