Title: Champions League Final Post by: Digger on May 10, 2007, 04:51:02 PM I've been lucky enough to get a ticket for the Champions League Final, just wondering if any other Blondes are travelling?
Athens followed by Dublin APAT......tough life eh! Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: Graham C on May 10, 2007, 05:07:20 PM Nice one mate, who are you supporting ;)
Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: kinboshi on May 10, 2007, 07:19:56 PM Nice one Digger!! Unfortunately, I can't go - small matter of paying for an extension and a kitchen.
My brother's going - having gone to every away game in Europe this season he was guaranteed a seat. I see that Liverpool's application for more tickets has fallen on deaf ears at UEFA. Ridiculous really, as they'll still be 40,000 Liverpool fans in there on the 23rd. Have a good one, and hopefully we can celebrate in Dublin!! :)up Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: Royal Flush on May 10, 2007, 07:39:20 PM Nice one Digger!!

They did in 2005. The thing is, with the way UEFA allocate the tickets it just means that many Liverpool fans (who will be in the majority), will have to resort to buying overpriced tickets on the black market if they want a ticket. At the same time, season ticket holders at Liverpool are not guaranteed tickets as they are entered into a ballot. Sounds a bit like APAT actually... It was the same thing in 2005, and you could see which club most of the fans followed. It just means legitimate fans who want to go have to shell out hundreds of pounds to touts - rather than them being allocated by whatever means by the club.

Got a funny feeling that Milan will be more interested in it this time though. Favourites as they were two years ago - but I don't think they'll be taking it for granted this time round. No matter what ferguscum says. Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: Royal Flush on May 10, 2007, 08:00:32 PM For sure, they also have to secure 3rd place in the league so will be pressing there.
No 2 teams have has as much success over the last 30 years as Milan and Liverpool, so although everyone will agree they are not the best 2 teams in Europe it should make for a cracking final. I just hope its Milan this time :D Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: Graham C on May 10, 2007, 08:07:35 PM I just hope it's a good game, Liverpool have been bloody boring to watch recently.
Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: TightEnd on May 10, 2007, 08:09:15 PM I think Milan will really turn it on, last time hurt deep
Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: kinboshi on May 10, 2007, 08:22:19 PM I just hope it's a good game, Liverpool have been bloody boring to watch recently. Against chavski we might have been, but other than that, have you watched many of our games? Also worth remembering that we don't do dull finals. Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: Graham C on May 10, 2007, 08:28:55 PM I thought I had, perhaps I've just caught the iffy ones :D
Yes you do good finals though, I'll give you that! Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: Digger on May 11, 2007, 11:31:30 AM Nice one Digger!!

I've got a huge flag (12' x 6').....any ideas for a slogan? Title: Re: Champions League Final Post by: kinboshi on May 11, 2007, 03:40:51 PM Nice one Digger!!
