Despite the club's poor season domestically, ex-Red Devils midfielder Paul Scholes is confident his former side will rise to the occasion in the final.

He said: "For some reason, the history of this club is almost like Real Madrid at times - when they aren't playing that well they can still go on and win European cups.

that’s some praise right there
 
Nice little end to the season no matter what happens then. We have a guarantee that either Manchester United or Tottenham fans will get the wind taken out of their sales.

At least he can back it up though unlike some managers recently.

True that. They’ve been utter ****e since Fergie left but they’ve continued to collect trophies along the way.
 
So as Spurs and Man Utd are in the final, and the winner gets CL, does that take away one of the top five places or do we get this as an additional place?

Since when has the wind been in Spurs' sail's?

It's sail's BTW, not sales. Unless you mean they were planning on selling players.

(Unbelievable Fosse has not spotted this!)

Would imagine additional... as it's always been 'the real prize' for winning it, irrespective of winner's country ...

Statto65 should be able to confirm - seems to spend more time on numbers than actual game watching <whistle>

In what way?

When have United or Spurs fans ever done this?

We don't represent Leicester by the way, so you needn't be embarrassed. <ok>

When 2 British teams play a final overseas there is always the potential for knobbyness ... particularly given all day drinking in the sunshine ...

Wasn't really a dig at either club ... just an observation on scenario and a 'hope' that everyone behaves...
