Champions League Final | Who’s NOT going to Istanbul?

[Ethan23]

She's not the right woman for you. If I'd planned something with the missus and there was a big city game, she'd tell me to go to the game

Imagine missing the biggest game in the clubs history ... FOR FUCKING PINK!

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

I am well. I had the all clear in October and my recent CT scan came back all good too.

Thank you, though!

Good news blue. Hope you get back on your financial feet soon.

I love fucking pink ;-)

I’ll be in a tiny village in Macedonia. Will have to find a bar. Or do the 8 hour drive to Istanbul!

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

I'm not going.
Wish I was.
But no a chance I can justify spending a grand on a game.
Plus I've not holidays left from work .
So that's another couple of days of work.
That's another 500 .
And I fucking hate uefa

 

[Del_Bosque]

Cost is extortionate but the fucking around is putting me off more than anything, 4.5 hour flight, maybe more if you don't go direct

10pm kick off 20km outside Istanbul

Probably watch it in Second City maybe head to Abel Heywood afterward usually a good atmosphere

Second City has closed down unfortunately

 

[Chi-town blues]

Rudiger.

 

[gloryhuntersince85]

have the points but only have the time for the day trip so anxiously waited for it, cannot justify that price of £1000, weighed the cost and it would be the price of my season ticket + 10 away PL tickets, so can't justify that cost

 

[Mr Ed (The Stables)]

My hip is fucked atm (and I mean hella fucked). Had to cancel the family holiday to Tunisia. I can’t walk or even sit comfortably. No way I could be on a plane, and probably not a good idea to be totally immobile in a foreign country.

So guess I’ll watch it at home with some falafel, lamb kebabs and baklava. I’ll make a bit of an event of it with the wife.

Hope the blues that do go stay safe and have a great time!

This was me 10 years ago, once the new hip was installed and the muscles around it have grown back it really does give you a new leese of life. Like yourself I'm struggling health wise so I will just watch it at home maybe with my son. I hope the blues that do go keep themselves safe and enjoy it. Oh to be 23 again, no cares or responsibilities, wife, mortgage earning good money I'd have been there in a flash.
