I understand why the Champions League is important to the club, it's the most CORRUPT club competition in the world and to lift that trophy would bring about accolades and the type of world wide publicity we have never experienced before.
As a fan, watching the club try and compete every year where the odds are clearly stacked against us wears you down after a while. Every game of note we have played has been overshadowed by a controversial incident.
It's clear UEFA don't want us to be there and will do everything they can to stop us having a fair shot. That isn't going to change whether we boo or not. Fans aren't able to influence much, but if for the couple of minutes during the champs league anthem we have our opportunity to make our point then we have every right to do so.
Pep might not like the booing, but with respect to him he's a manager who is assessed on how well his team performs in the competition. Maybe after this season he'll understand our frustrations a bit more, either way the likelihood is he'll be managing somewhere else in a few years, whereas we will be putting up with the same shit we have been ever since we first qualified for the competition. Long may the booing continue, fuck UEFA.
