I want us to win the champions League to boil piss to the next level. Plastic worldwide meltdown

After the debacles against Monaco , Dippers , Spuds and Lyon we are well overdue a decent result in the latter stages of this trophy , some help from VAR & officials and Haaland missing a few sitters would be in order .Not over enamoured with the Champs league , but as others have stated its a neccesary evil for our club to get to the next level and appease our owners. Stuff the Germans the the French and Chelski in the final and get the monkey of our backs.

One of my colleagues in our German depot is a big Dortmund fan and is wishing for a good game and may the best team win etc., etc., ....Sorry but I can't wish him the same. I don't want us to get through by a dodgy VAR but if that's the way it has to be.....

Ah, that's just a polite German way pre match! He would take the same dodgy VAR and say it was a deserved win!
You could tell him you're glad there are no fans, that alone would make him proud ;)

Just in case anyone had forgot.....;-)

They pissed everyone off but I’d happy take the loss to Leeds for a draw or win tonight for obvious reasons.

Exactly this but we have to win the tie, I remember us resting a couple at the toilet prior to the covid cancelled Arsenal game last season, (which was also just before a CL game) I remember thinking at the time it’s for the greater good & the same XI can’t play every game, but that season ended in disaster, hopefully this time things turn out better

Another reminder, although absolutely meaningless:

Quarter-finalists get a further €10.5m on top (check!)
and semi-finalists another €12m.
Each Champions League finalist gets €15m ,
although the winners’ bonus is only a relatively meagre €4m.

I get this happens a lot but is this how they show their support and passion? Too much dipperesque

I’d say it’s sets of fans from pretty much every club around Europe who do this sort of thing. Europop Ultras think they’re dead edgy, but all they are is grown men doing stuff you’d expect from teenagers.

The night before games - they gather outside hotels to “greet” and wake-up their rival team.
Pre-game - they gather under bridges (they love gathering under bridges, very odd behaviour!) dancing around chanting songs with no words, they gather outside the ground to “greet” the team buses, then all march to the game together doing more silly choreography.
During the game - even more choreographed dancing and chanting songs with no words to a drum beat.

They’re a hybrid of anti-social thirteen year old Brits, high school cheerleaders from the US, and trolls. A very strange kind of people!
