How are you getting to the CL Final?

To be fair to Portugal they have to protect their own citizens and I wouldn't expect anything less from them. To be fair to our government they have to protect our citizens and I would not expect anything less. Moving thousands of people from one country to another in the middle of a pandemic is the definition of fucking stupidity.

This is all because of UEFA's insistence it has its jollies, the fans do not matter one fucking bit. It makes me fucking sick and it almost makes me wish we had joined the ESL and fucked the corrupt cunts at UEFA off. They have put their interests before fans interests once again.

It would be nice to think that not one City or Chelsea fan went to this game in protest at the stupidity of the decision, I know that wont happen but somehow UEFA has to change and stop being selfish cunts.

Why don't they just postpone the final for 12 months. The Spanish did that with the Copa Del Rey and had 2 cup finals on different weekends.

City and Chelsea are both qualifying for the CL anyway so it should not matter if it is delayed 12 months.

It is really disappointing, the CL Final should be one of the great nights in our history but thousands will miss out because of either lack of ticket or cost and it is a real kick in the teeth to everyone of us who have followed the club through thick and thin. I am almost at the point now where football can fuck off for me, i feel that deflated about it.
I've an idea why don't they play it at Wembley.
 
They’re now saying you can travel but just not go to the game. It’s so moronic it’s untrue. All to allow the sponsors to go. Which would have been possible here had we operated a bubble system with quarantine waiver as a result
 
I've skipped from page two so this may have been mentioned

12,000 English supporters mixed at an airport at midnight
How the hell are the Portuguese police going to handle this?

If the Portuguese authorities are also going to lump in the UEFA officials as they're only turning up for the game, then that's going to be another 10,000+ so at least 22,000 at the airport

The capacity of an Airbus is approx 200, so that'll be 100/150 planes trying to leave and there's a curfew at British airports, so no one will be able to fly from Portugal until at least 4am

Hence why they said "nobody will be in the country for more than 24 hours". You'd think something like this could be done in 12 hours but with the backlog you have mentioned, there will be a lot of hanging around.
 
Under normal circumstances I d be scratching the cash together, flying out of Sydney into Dubai then on to Porto.
Find a decent bar, watch the game envious of those more deserving than me with tickets who are only a couple of miles away in the stadium.
Surprising how many do this generally on the off chance that there might be a ticket knocking about.

Did it for the World Cup Final in 2006 and missed a face value ticket by 10 seconds.

But on this momentous weekend I 'll have to settle for watching here (probably with the Sydney Supporters Group who are a top bunch) because our glorious Australian government refuses to let us travel out of the country...
...Unless of course you are rich, famous, influential or a mix of all 3.

Don't they realise that this was what I dreamed of all those years ago at the 0-5 on a November Thursday or the 0-6 or the 1-4 on the opening day or the 0-1 on a Friday night or indeed the final day 5-2 which proved to be of no value at all.
Halcyon Days indeed!!!!
