The opinion on Sporting and Oviedo: Fut-tennis and the orange economy

Oviedo relaxes with a “fúrgol-tennis” session to alleviate the tensions of this improvable start to the season. Open doors to see the show at El Requexón. Ye what there is. Anything goes as long as you reach the goal and be in top shape for what is to come. The Lugo of the blue Hernán awaits Sunday without support in the stands of the boys and girls of the Oviedo supporters clubs. Nobody in Lugo, except the president of the local club, understands that for a handful of euros an opportunity to make money at the expense of the Carbayona fans has been missed. They will know.

Meanwhile, 28 kilometers away, the “El Molinón-World-Mareo” operation is gaining momentum. The first calculations, like this by flying (or not), show that adapting the municipal Gijon to the demands of FIFA will mean an outlay of 40 million, kilo up, kilo down. There are some – it is not known whether they are the majority or the minority – who raise their hands to their heads. Others, on the contrary, believe that more panicles will be needed on the table. It remains to be seen, among many other things, the economic studies on the return, you know: for one euro of investment, so many profits and such and such.

If the “van” were considered a cultural activity, it could be included in that of the orange economy that was so fashionable not long ago and of which little or nothing is heard anymore. But, for the time being, the matter remains in the gray economy, in that of concrete, methacrylate and silestone. And then it remains to be seen, if the matter goes ahead, how it will sit with those on the other side of the Potomac that public administrations pull everyone’s money so that Gijón is World Cup. Because, in the end, neither orange nor grey: the only color that counts is money, hey man?
