Fellas, it's been 17 years. It's time to see a therapist, recover those repressed memories and come to terms with the pain.
Or.....push it deep down inside and go see a specialist when that stress hernia eventually pops up.
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.

Just had a message from virgin media saying final will be free to all who use virgin even without a by sport subscription
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.

I think UEFA will prefer a Premier League team winning this..
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 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
