Booing the Champions League Anthem

CL & Uefa... corrupt / unfair.. We are not the only fans around Europe who feel this way, hence similar is happening at other stadiums and some on a larger scale.... If its pointless to do it then to end it would make it even more pointless.. Carry it on and show platinni how we feel, its not something that will go away, some of the big clubs e.g. bayern are taking things even further and our feelings must be heard.

Plus the anthem is shite.

Agreed, its not like Uefa needs us anyway. Its rather stupid to boo it besides I bet those that do will be scrambling for a ticket to the final if we get there.

They are booing UEFA. Not the competition. Or they wouldn't be there. And if they are there for the first game, why wouldn't they want a ticket for the final.

Good try, but it lacked logic. C+

Let me explain it for you.

Last season, after the CL draw I bought flights, hotel and a visa for a game in Moscow. You needed to apply for a visa around 3-4 weeks before the game to get it processed in order to attend. After this time, UEFA in their infinite wisdom decided to punish CSKA for their fans racism by closing the ground to any spectators. This meant if you already had a VISA or Flights booked, there was fuck all you could do to get your money back.

As it turned out, the ground wasnt actually closed. Corporate sponsors in their hundreds were allowed in, CSKA fans got in, city fans didnt. So who actually got penalised? I did, to the tune of about £500. The fine levied on CSKA wasnt distributed amongst us fans who had lost out. To date ive emailed UEFA a number of times to ask them to re-imburse me. Do you know how many responses ive had? 0. I even considered legal action, but as they're based in Switzerland, it'd have been a massive ballache.

So, the debacle didnt make me lose my love for City (although I am still pretty disgusted that they've done next to nothing to help) but it showed me what I probably already knew that UEFA are a bunch of bent bastards who dont give a fuck about the fans. I'd dare to say you'd be a bit possed off in my shoes.

Ive tried to complain elsewhere, booing is all im left with now.

Fair play, it's a terrible situation that you were left in, my understanding was that the fans were reimbursed for visas and travel.
I can see why you are so pissed off and just wish there was a better way for you to vent your anger, UEFA as other corporate giants have the ability to abuse there power and ignore the people that actually matter, in this case the most loyal fans!
