Good for Gibralter! I hope it is pointed out to Spain that they can object all they want but they don't control UEFA.

The latest government of Spain reminds me of Argentina: stupid, lacking in diplomacy and attempting to deflect the crap from them by picking on Gibraltar. They seem determined to make themselves the laughing stock of Europe, after the Greeks, by playing ducks and drakes with the bailout requirement when we all know they are going to have to accept the money or default.

Arrogance on a stick with nothing to back it up and the only people who will suffer is the population of Spain itself.
