Champions League Final | Pre-Match Thread

yeah fair point, you'll still need 16k+ points to be in with a shout

I reckon over 20k if we're only going to get say 2k tickets. I can see 2k to each team and 4k distributed via UEFA

yeah, guess it depends on people's willingess to travel and whatever restrictions uefa / UK and turkey govt impose

You’d think if Chelsea get through some common sence would prevail and the venue changed to Wembley, or another U.K. venue (millennium stadium
Possibly 30k fans in as opposed to 9-10k. Maybe even more.
No fans travelling internationally and more tickets for not just fans but UEFA bigwigs etc.

id hope so anyway, not just selfishly for my own ticket but the first European final in 50 years, it would be criminal if only 2k blues got in :(

Yes, I can envisage that scenario. Rumours that capacity may be 25% have been circulating. In those circumstances it would be a 19,000 capacity, in which case each side could expect 4-5,000.

What is hard to know is how willing people are to do the post-travel quarantine and paying for the numerous tests. If it is an amber country and flight prices go up, it will be a big sacrifice in terms of time and money.

4,000 for City if 25,000 in attendance??

Feel exactly the same. Lost my Dad in March.

Last texts from him were about the win against Monchengladbach.

All I want to do is talk with him about it.

I lost my father in law (who was a season ticket holder for 30+years) recently and I know this is bitter sweet. Thoughts going out to you.

If we beat Chelsea or Real Madrid in the final...

It's a tough decision for me, Aguero or Fernandinho. Both leaving at the end of the season i think it fitting that one of them should get the honour of lifting 'old big ears off its stand.

Id like to see them both get a handle each and lift it together but that probably won't happen. I think Fernandinho should because he's been more involved in the competition and captained the side magnificently putting in a top class performance.

*Mods, can we have a poll on this please with other players as possible options. Thanks.

Will the club lay something on for fans to watch it at the ground , i think the rules will allow something by then

I’m absolutely over the moon at that result tonight but I’m absolutely gutted I can’t call my Dad to talk about it and I’m sure there are loads of blues feeling very similar today for friends and family no longer with us.

Win or lose in Istanbul, we’ve made history today and I feel for every Blue that stuck with us through the shit but didn’t managed to see this day. Those of us that have seen it are so very fortunate. Little Citeh in the CL Final, well fuck me.

Anyway, here’s to the Blues that weren’t blessed to see this day!

Mine went in 2007 just before the takeover. His last game was the Derby County game where Johnson scored that screamer. He died 2m later.

Whilst I don’t believe in afterlife, I have this repetitive dream that when I go, he will be waiting up there and his first question will be “So have City won anything since I’ve been gone” My reply is “I think you need to take a seat”

It’s Hollywood stuff what has happened to us.
