The highest authority of Real Madrid also thanked the club's members, who were awarded insignias, for their unwavering support and reserved the following words for them: “We are grateful for your commitment and dedication to the colours that are part of your lives. Real Madrid has been making dreams come true and transforming the history of football. With Santiago Bernabéu and Alfredo Di Stéfano, the makings of a plan were forged that would enable the club to emerge as the greatest of the 20th century. That has all been down to members like you and that recognition of FIFA was also given on account of a set of values which have made us a reference in the world of sport and you are responsible for ensuring that these principles continue to exist and that Real Madrid continues to belong to us all. Real Madrid should always belong to its members and nothing should prejudice that sign of identity”.
