Or.....push it deep down inside and go see a specialist when that stress hernia eventually pops up.

Horses for courses.

4:30 for me this morning. Gave up trying to go back to sleep so got up, showered and logged into work. Last few meals also haven't sat right.

Pull yourself together man!

I have to say that i was always worried about us again getting caught out with a dodgy decision and the possibility that fiorentina might go down the Jose/Roma route of "winning by any means necessary", and that fear hasn't been helped by the Europa League final.
After that i am also afraid that UEFA will use our match to impose on the refs some stupid diktat which will work against us to try and make up for their failings in that match and for their failings in the choice of stadium etc in this match.

yes apparently all three finals have been made free to air by BT sport and so available via Virgin.

Has anyone clarified the ticket ID check issue please?

States passport of national ID.

As we don't have national ID cards would driving licences with photo ID be okay? Don't fancy having my passport in my back pocket all day and night.

I've wondered this too. It'll be a passport or driving license for me. I also don't fancy getting to the stadium and being told my ID isn't valid proof of who I am.

They absolutely definitely would
Having a Premier League team win it would further legitimise the tournament bringing extra publicity and global coverage, increased ad and sponsorship revnues

I have to say, I have thoroughly enjoyed this tournament.

I thought that it was going to be a bit Mickey Mouse but it turned out to the very watchable.

Not just us but lots of other games along the way.

Teams were competing for their club, unlike Chumps League where it's all about the money.

This tournament had clubs all on a similar level who battled for 90 minutes.

This and the Europa league are rapidly becoming my favourite.

Brightens up my Thursday evening.

Has Fornals done enough in recent weeks in order to replace Benrahma on the left side for the final ?

He's given DM a bit of a headache, I hope.

I think the fact we've struggled domestically makes it all the more of an achievement should we win it.

The fact we’ve struggled in the league will also be the fuel for other teams fans to say it’s a nothing cup
