No doubt they paid overs to host it. That puts a lot of pressure on the venue in hoping the travelling fans turn up. Cheers, mate.
The biggest scandal is that the 'UEFA family' as they describe themselves get the biggest allocation of all at both finals and many of these tickets end up being touted, it happens every year. The genuine fan is always at the bottom of the food chain...
Europa final. Stadium holds 68,000 plus. Arsenal and Chelski fans get 6000 tickets each. That's an awful lot of room left for the corporates
Been on hols for last 2 and a bit weeks so been raking a break from here.... Watched the Liverpool game amongst a load if Scousers in the middle of the med on a ship via a satellite link.....lost the link a 3-0 they were not amused until a ship crew member told them the final score... Similarly with spurs game sat with a bu ch of their fans.....seriously couldn't believe what we were watching 2nd half. Felt sorry for Ajax as they played some fabulous football but just froze last 10 minutes....not at all sorry for Barcelona or UEFA. Shame those bolloxs's from sw6 got through last night still good idea to send them to Baku for the final just not far enough away....
Yoann Barbet and Josh McEachran are among five players who will leave Brentford when their contracts - I wonder if they were Warbutton signings at the Middlesex club and wonder whether they fancy a chance to work with him again?
Didn't take long for the Old Firm match to get tasty - Rangers 1 up after 5 minutes after refusing to give Celtic a guard of honour as champions....
Methinks that the kingmakers at the Theatre of Dreams may be rueing the speed by which they appointed Ole. I wonder how much free reign they'll give him in the Summer transfer market?
