Champions League Final | Tickets - City Official Package + UEFA Tickets | 2022 Final (pg 1033)

[Phil Mitchell Foden]

Off the top of my head I know about 30 Manchester based blues who are Catholic and about 20 of them are of Irish descent.

Always found it odd when people say City are a protestant club, that’s not been my experience whatsoever.

I never found that we have those real links one way or another, and it's usually people with an agenda that try to promote it. Bit grim.

Sometimes you'll hear of a blue that supports one of the Old Firm and us, but that's individual. Always found it a bit weird too.

Burning question I've always had is if the Pope is catholic??

 

[i kne albert davy]

I thought that was overall capacity? Thereby reducing the allocation to real fans down to about 4,000-per-club.

Who knows till they decide to let us in on it, but UEFA were hoping for 50% capacity in Istanbul if same applies to Wembley that 45k but again who knows.

Any ideas how to get a refund on a flight to Turkey? Please and thank you.

No idea,

I thought it was the other way round red dippers catholic and Everton Protestant

No, but again this is going back many years and is of little relevance now but Everton were the Catholic club while Liverpool were very much the protestant club, but thankfully I think in England times have moved on.

Maybe there are no Catholic or Protestant clubs supporters wise in England.

 

[bluesmith]

I think you may have that wrong:

“Liverpool are the Catholic team and play in red at Anfield. Mention Xabi Alonso, maybe with knowing raised eyebrows; don't mention Michael Owen except with a knowing sneer. Everton are the Protestant team and play in blue at Goodison Park.”

Again mate, I knew that, but are you aware of a sizeable Protestant Celtic support?

I am not aware, but when they were formed there were a lot of protestant Irish nationalists.

Having 8k fans go to one place, come back, quarantine and get tested in line with government regulations is considerably safer than having over 10 thousand UEFA staff, media, VIPs and guests from all over Europe and the world coming over with an exemption on quarantining.

Where's your house and when do you want to give me your keys?

I will hand over the keys when you can explain how it is less safe for the 10,000 to travel to the UK rather than Turkey (whilst 8,000 fans don’t travel).

10,000 travelling is less risky than 18,000 travelling.

keys safe and sound for now

I'd say it's mixed.
