I've only been watching for about 20 minutes and they've hit the woodwork three times, they're absolutely cursed :lol:

Hoping for a Bayern win tomorrow, as a Bayern/Dortmund final might be less predictable. Didn't they meet at Wembley in the final in 2013?

Bristol Rovers fans have called on the club to apologise after a letter about season tickets referred to disabled fans and ‘normal’ fans. The club’s Disabled Supporters’ Association said it was ‘disappointed’ to see the wording of the letter - which was sent privately to the supporters’ club and shared with fans on social media - while other fans called it ‘extremely insensitive’.

The club’s chief executive replied to one poster on X/ Twitter, but in a now-deleted tweet didn’t apologise and only said the email should not have been shared publicly.

The furore erupted over the Bank Holiday weekend after the Bristol Rovers Supporters' Club posted on Twitter that they had received a response from the club regarding their questions about new season ticket arrangements for next season. The club is introducing e-tickets for season ticket holders and, like most clubs, is offering a physical card to supporters who don’t want to have their ticket on their phone, for an extra fee.

The club confirmed that fans who want a physical season card instead of an e-ticket will have to pay £15 for that, but disabled fans will receive a physical card for free. In the letter to the supporters’ club, which they subsequently shared word-for-word, the club explained the rationale behind the switch to e-tickets and the charges for a physical season card, and said: “We have provided all disabled fans…to get free cards for them upon request. As for normal fans and older fans they can purchase the card for 15 pounds, which is the exact cost on the club, and we are not making any money on it, just covering the costs.”

They are a scummy club at the best of times, but you'd think they'd hide it better. But what can you expect from a club that employed Joey Barton as manager.

I've managed to process my Kane pain, and have switched to now wanting Bayern to win as the man definitley deserves to win some silverware.

Especially if it means Dier also get's a CL medal which is ridic, but he is no where near as bad as people liked to make out and he always did his best in a Spurs shirt, just didn't suit the system.

Also strawberry float Real Madrid.

Yes, bayern are definitely the lesser of two evils tonight. Here's hoping they win it.

Experienced.
Home advantage.
Dirty trick to win the game.

I'm not surprised.

I'm guessing:
Bojan
Joselu
Choupo-Moting
Arnautovic
Shaqiri

(Not in order, may well be missing someone as well)
