Following the realisation they're beginning to look like a bunch of cunts, UEFA are considering holding it in Blighty but only if it's Wembley which would clash with the play-off final. Although Lisbon is also a possibility.
But should it be Wembley they'll demand quarantine exemptions for 3000 UEFA officials.
I know we're winning the covid war here but is one game of football that important ?
Play the game in Gdansk, same as the Europa Final. Poland apparently is OK Covid wise so no problems with quarantining on return to the UK and no issue for UEFAs army of personnel, although I suspect the figure of 3000 iw just a tad exaggerated.
It's the figure they said on Sky.
FFS It's like the bloody civil service and local government. What do they all do for heaven's sake. ?
Why Is There Only One Monopolies Commission. Isn't That A Monopoly?

Both teams were superb in their execution but I reckon the final will be a bore fest. Chelsea are very defensive and play with great pace on the counter. Their goals effectively come from Kante nicking the ball in midfield. City play keep ball and no striker.
You will have one team who is happy to have the ball and the other team is happy for the opposition to have the ball.
Oh and you will have thousands of fans hitting Turkey and bringing back something more serious than the clap this time.
Didn't watch the F A Cup game between them but the reports I read said that Chelsea deserved their win. Don't know if you watched the game but was wondering what your views on it were.
If Chelsea play a sit back and counter game an early City goal could liven things up.
Watched it. As described.
Chelsea 5 at the back. Kante trying to nick the ball. Speed on counter.
City were 50% full strength so difficult to judge.
Foden has taken Sterling's spot. Wonder if clueless waistcoat sees it that way for England

EUFA demand quarantine exemptions if played here
Fuck you and play the fucking match abroad
Cunts.
Fuck em. Chelsea and City should just rock up at Wembley. 20,000 fans each and play it out.
No way should we have national policy dictated to so several thousand freeloaders can watch a football match
Exactly.......a bunch of freeloaders who want exemption from covid rules were rightly not given it so they take their pram and wheel it to Porto whose stadium is half the size, impossible to get to in half term week and play a game between two English sides

But they care about the fans
Porto has been confirmed as the venue as the UK govenment were not prepared to allow guarantees on travel exemptions for officials, media and sponsors.
An unnamed spokesperson using the US Brown Bear analogy said...we can't just allow any old wanker with a lanyard wandering around Yellowstone Park...and that was it. It's a zoo out there and you need a valid permit to mix with our animals.
