2012/13 UEFA Champions League thread

That's...terrible.

[METALMAN]

why else would it be there :/

[King Ellis]

Because UEFA sees the way the tides are turning in football and they figure if ze Germans are going to take over club football, they might as well cater to them by making the stadium fairly local. As opposed to our FA saying 'two northern teams? London!'

The distance between, say, Munich and Berlin is verging on twice that between Manchester and London.

Someone doesn't believe in Hertha Berlin. :/

All the signs on the tube are German :/

Really looking forward to this match - with no real preference for either team, I'll be able to enjoy it as a proper neutral... There hasn't been a Champions League final in which I haven't really wanted one particular team to win/lose for...Christ...maybe a decade or more (or, in the case of United v Barcelona finals, wanting both teams to somehow lose).

And as an added bonus, afterwards I get to flick over to Chelsea TV and watch Chelsea get pummeled by City for a second time.

I really want Dortmund to win, they're the perfect example of how a club should be IMO and their fans are fantastic. Plus Leeds is twinned with Dortmund and Bayern are European Cup stealing cunts.

[Thrilla]

I'm contemplating a draw in normal time and Kessler victory over Froch double today. Looking forward to what should be a great final.

Dortmund win tonight. Amazing club/fans and manager.

[Crybaby Bunting]

I hope t' Dortingham Rovers beat t' Bayham Wanderers in t' soccerball t'night

[Lineker]

Dortmund fans have taken over Trafalgar Square, they look to be having a terrific laugh!

[Crybaby Bunting]

Youths wandering around Trafalgar square in large groups peacefully? HANG THEM! HANG THEIR PARENTS! AND HANG THEIR KIDS!

[Lineker]

There have been scuffles at Wembley. Silly drunk Germans!

Bloody foreigners!

Countdown to "English hooligans disguised as German fans to stir up trouble" story in 10...9...

[DavidMarrio]

Got the following bets on for tonight:

£2 on Dortmund 1-0 and Lewandowski to score first at 50/1
£2 on 1-1 and Reus to score first at 60/1

£2 on Bayern 2-0 and Muller to score first at 40/1

These guys are 70 years in the video too late if they want to cause trouble in England.
