  1. Real test for Gio to shape his squad for this. Avoid Monaco who look the strongest.
  2. Success, but we need to build on this. Gio now has time to build his own team for another assault on Europe and at home. CL qualifiers are a must win.
  3. Noticeable that he started giving us decisions after we were 2 up as though he felt he needed to show that had been fair throughout. Either a completely incompetent referee ora blatant cheat.
  4. What a load of shite. Not sure what the association with Liverpool has anything to do with anything. If you can reasonably anticipate a set of circumstances you prepare for it. UEFA, the Stadium, the police all responsible for causing problems. But all predictable problems.
  5. Correct but that is the system and you have to prepare for it. It is totally wrong but entirely predictable in advance. UEFA policy, shit ground, lack of care for fans, heavy handed policing all part of the package. All totally wrong but happens at every final.
  6. This is part of the problem. I said it before the game, said it at the game and still say it now. Why was there such an obsession with getting pissed at a European final amongst our support? Hardly surprising we were so shite in the stadium compared to our normal selves. Everyone knew what the stadium would be like, and how UEFA would manage the occasion before the game. The stadium is a shit hole and UEFA is UEFA, so how people were treated should have come as no surprise. It doesn’t make it right and so much of the planning and actions of those organising and enacting organisational directives would fail to stand scutiny in a UK court. But this was not the UK, this was Spain on a hot Spanish day. Shite organisation from UEFA has been going on for many years and this was no different, but everyone attending should have been prepared.
  7. All down to experience of navigating your way through the system. Feel really sorry for the many who lost stuff but this has been going on for many years and unfortunately nobody will do a thing about it and by the weekend it will all be forgotten….until next time. Good to see you got a ticket, thought you had missed out?
  8. Stuck down their nether regions. One area they won’t search.
  9. Not a squad for next season thread but we will offload at least 5 of last night’s squad and getting it right with recruits is key.
  10. It was but no reason why we can’r come back and do better starting with a trophy on Saturday. Real big games are to get into the CL. Gio looks at the squad and where we need to improve. Get into the CL and bring in players to give us a fighting chance of finishing at least 3rd in the groups, which would at least let us have a real good go the Europa League next season and a stronger squad to win trophies domestically.
  11. Right drawing the line after last night, all the what ifs debated over and over again. Players and fans need to roll their sleeves up and get ready for Saturday.
  12. For the CL just under 20000 tickets with 14000 going to fans. 3000 with all homes and at least one away guaranteed and rest in a ballot. Rewards those with aways but virtually impossible to get on the away ladder which is near enough a closed shop.
  13. Yes. But have to do the right thing and let the younger generation go. Will keep looking for a ticket up till kick off, might try sneaking in, but maybe getting too old for that!
  14. Watched Arsenal at Newcastle whilst having a late tea. Oh dear!
  15. Said to my lad at the weekend. “Has it sunk in you are going to the English and Scottish Cup finals and both European finals? “ Gave my daughter my CL final ticket so will be watching in a bar in Paris😀.
  16. Nerves going now. Early night tomorrow and up for the 6:40 Malaga flight. Absolutely buzzing. Possibly the biggest match in our history.
  17. Similar attitude to Rangers with the Scotland national team and the SNP.
  18. Liverpool anthem mate, Liverpool anthem.
