I can't grasp the reasoning behind some peoples lack of enthusiasm ahead of this game. It's like a lot of you actually want us to be shit!
For me mate not prepared to pay £150 to watch a shit game of football first leg of a corrupt competition. Just dosnt float my boat I'm afraid .the lads season ticket is £125 for 19 games
If cost and affordability are the main factor preventing someone from going to this then I can completely understand. That's the clubs problem because they set the prices, not EUFA. All this stuff about the competition being corrupt is just stupid though - It's obviously set up to suit the 'elite' at this moment in time, but they are changing that next season so it suits the current best teams. I just feel like we're cutting off our nose to spite our face by avoiding this competition. Despite what anyone on here says, it's the biggest club competition in the world, and if we want to continue to do well domestically we NEED to improve in Europe. This competition pays for our star players, and being a genuine contender attracts people to the club.
Think about it, your kid is going to tell his children and theirs that he watched Messi in the flesh - twice!! I'd have given my left nut to be involved in the Champions league a few years ago, now I feel we take it for granted!
(My rant isn't at you btw, just venting in general!)
