Makes you wonder why the club still have not confirmed it. When it is in black and white there.

Perhaps, purely hypothetical, there has been a hiccup with one of the matches/opposition lined up.
 
Hope one of our Spanish exciles can translate the gist of the above links for fikkies like me who can barely read english.

http://translate.google.com - just paste the url into there.

First one was from last year (looking at the photo), but this line sticks out. The second link is a bit more about the Tournament, although it says it will take place AT Southend in May or June 2012.

"During the meeting, among other things, discussed the outlines of cooperation between the clubs to organize the First International Carlson Wagonlit Travel Tournament next season."
 
Those links seem to say something along these lines

basically the owner of that Spanish team came to Southend to have a meeting with Ron, and he showed him around. They are hoping to form a link between the clubs - Are you playing them in a friendly or something? + there was something about an international tour?
 
To sum up it says that the President of this club came to Roots Hall to meet Ron Martin (must have been 2 seasons ago judging by the photo) to discuss the partnership between the two clubs and organising a tournament, which is presumably what we'll be going to Madrid for. This club is new.

Quite exciting that we're going to Madrid. Wonder if we'll play Real at the Bernabau.
