Europa Conference League Final 2025 | Real Betis v Chelsea | Wed 28th May '25

I'm torn on this one.

Chavs win - Cue the Palmer fanboys and the media wankfest about Pep being a **** in letting him go.

Betis win - I'm chuffed for our former boss.
Ideal scenario is the fidget spinner to get carted off for a straight red, a second yellow for lip or better still, having a brawl with Palmer. Then Betis go on to win with 10 men.
 
Ultimateharold who lives in Wroclaw beautiful old town has messaged me and it's been kicking off this evening with the Chelsea fans and local police.
 
That’s both finals now, both featuring English teams, where the fans have acted like twats. Brits abroad.

It's never easy travelling to Poland for a game. Local ultras are always waiting looking for a scrap and terrorising visiting fans.

I remember going out there many, many years ago for a little trip with friends. The Netherlands happened to be playing friendly match vs Poland in this city and the cafe we were in had loads of Dutch fans just chilling before the place was overrun with local ultras in ballys smashing the cafe up, punching/kicking random people throwing chairs and tables in all directions.

That's just my own personal anecdote, but I've seen plenty of evidence over the years since that this is just something to expect when travelling to Poland for football.
 
Is this game very meaningful to either side other than the 'winning a european trophy' factor as Chelsea have UCL and Betis have UEL next season?
