The barge has a very special Athletic symbol. The emblematic boat with a blue skin and a red-and-white heart sailed the Ría 40 years ago with Clemente’s team on board and the whole of Bizkaia attached to both banks. La Peña Athletic El Txistu will be in charge of remembering that unforgettable day.
ANDhis tribute to that Athletic champion is popular and already in the works. Yesterday he was presented to society. A group of friends, about twenty sponsors and the indomitable spirit of those lions made it possible.
THOUGHhopefully the club itself will show the same sensitivity. In Ibaigane, English Non-League Day is now more popular. As if in Bizkaia there are no clubs that could use some extra support in the days when elite football stops. Barakaldo, for example, just got up.
Nope.or such duality is simply understood. Even less after witnessing the scale of an initiative, brilliant without a doubt, as in Iribar’s black shirt. But Clementes, Dani, Zubi, Goiko and company, even if they are ignored on the Athletic 125th anniversary poster, also play an important role in the club’s history.
ANDhis tribute to that 1-5 in Las Palmas is underway. The win goes beyond the green. There were many other moments of glory before and after.
SIt would be good to assert and influence the history of a unique club in the world. Especially when those lions are made of flesh and blood.
