I used to live in Tottenham and generally found their genuine local supporters to be decent people. Sadly even in Tottenham itself the majority of football ‘fans’ were non-attending plastic Gooners, who then as now were broadly a graceless bunch of ****ers.

Other than a baffling preponderance locally for plastic reds I never thought I felt particularly strongly either way about Liverpool until they were so dirty when we played them (think it was the 2-all draw iirc). After that I embarrassed myself with just how funny I found the iconic moment of Stevie G falling over and their dreams collapsing around them.

So Spuds for me, with a consolation goal for Robbo if possible, or Dennis’s 4-3 with a hat trick for him.

Seem to remember reading that Sperz have fewer fans living locally than any other club.

No one's fault that just the way the demographic piss pot cracks. Vast majority of Sperz fans have to come in from the 'burbs by public transport which is **** for WHL or whatever they call the new ground ( the Cock-o-drome?), so for a lot of folk even the home games are a bit of a pilgrimage.

A recurring theme of life these days is when you get introduced to someone or in the world of work you have a new starter/colleague/customer/supplier, and sooner or later it comes out about football. A lot of the time, whether local, national or international, it will be that the person or the person's husband/partner/civil partner etc is a Liverpool 'supporter', and that's when you have to count to ten and avoid discussing football because you know it will end in tears with them.
 
I really don't mind who wins, I guess Liverpool might just shade it because of Robbo, I hope they win for his sake.

Having said that, Spurs have been the source of 3 great players for us, Jake, Tom & Ryan, so I guess they will be rooting for the Spurs.

I just hope it's a good game, and the best team on the day wins.

The most important thing is it is an English team that will lift the cup.



This. ^^^^^^^^
 
Liverpool by far the better team...early goal and an easy 3-1 win...Robbo MOTM !!

My resident Scouser...and better half of almost 50 years...will scream non-stop throughout the game...and will sulk for a week if they lose making living with her unbearable. So the Reds HAVE to win!!! :emoticon-0102-bigsm:emoticon-0102-bigsm
I'll yell for Liverpool for your sake CT, and Robbo of course :emoticon-0148-yes:
At least they are from the North.
Edit: 2 Hull lads, 1 from Leeds (ex LUFC player), 1 Scot, 1 German and 1 Greek coming round to mine tomorrow. They'll all need to support Liverpool otherwise they'll not get near the beer fridge.
Job done.

Thanks TC...I'll need all the help I can get tomorrow !!! I'm still trying to find a channel in Canada we can watch the match live on though. What will you be using.? TNT doesn't seem to be available up here. I tried a subscription service called DAZN which advertises a free trial but it keeps rejecting my sign on even though I'm using a Canadian based credit card. Any suggestions greatly appreciated mate :emoticon-0101-sadsm

I watched the eufa cup final live via you tube on Mac book .
It's a bit **** when you can't watch on your telky
 
I know loads of Hull Spurs fans too , in fact at least the Liverpool ones are consistent in their displays , most the Spurs fans have only piped up and started wearing their shirts in the last month . I actually don't care as I am the only bloke without a dodgy box, BT or even proper internet at home , so won't be watching

Apparently it's free on Youtube (BT statement) . I watched the Arsenal/Chelsea game on a stream recommended on here...cricfree.stream which I hooked onto through my VPN (more secure). It looks as though the sat game will be on there (cricfree.stream) via the BT 2 link.
I'm gonna try youtube first, but I watched a few sports on the aforementioned site today. Worked fine.
Seems the authorities in England are doing their utmost to search for & block illegal streams as they happen.
I don't know if there was any connection, but I've had a bit of a problem with the internet access today which never ever happens normally (Rogers).
They eventually did a factory reset on my modem/router to fix the problem, but didn't know why I got the problem in the first place.

DAZN has had a lot of problems - seems a bit shaky to me - which doesn't bode well for next season as they have exclusive rights in North America & cable companies have not signed up at all.

Some of the other members on here may have other suggestions for streams.

Good luck. I'll be strung up by the lads on Sat if I can't get it to work !

I think BT have missed a trick here !
Could have offered the game for £10

Can you not hook up (through HDMI cabling) between you macbook & TV ? Or don't macbooks have HDMI output interfaces ?

Edit: How do you actually get the BT youtube link ?
