You’re right, as Roy Keane said -

“Lads, it’s spurs…”

I’m surprised Tottenham agreed to be used in such a way after De Valera’s message of condolence for Hitler

Little_Lord_Fauntleroy · May 9, 2019, 7:19pm

You don’t support the bin dippers

Ashman · May 9, 2019, 7:22pm

Was Ben briscoe a TD at that stage ?

lonelyisland236 · May 9, 2019, 7:27pm

Exactly. Plenty of tougher teams we could have gotten

backinatracksuit · May 9, 2019, 7:30pm

All those teams have been knocked out mate, Spurs are what’s left and they’re the ones who’ll beat ‘ye’ on June 1.

lonelyisland236 · May 9, 2019, 7:36pm

Not saying they won’t, it’s just not the worst position to be in. CL final you’re going to come up against a top class team. Don’t know how Liverpool fans can be disappointed with Tottenham

backinatracksuit · May 9, 2019, 7:36pm

It’s because the other option was Ajax

Little_Lord_Fauntleroy · May 9, 2019, 7:37pm

Have you a ticket?

lonelyisland236 · May 9, 2019, 7:37pm

Those are like gold dust

Special_Olympiakos · May 9, 2019, 7:37pm

He was still on his 347th recount vs Eric Byrne I’d say!

Little_Lord_Fauntleroy · May 9, 2019, 7:38pm

???

Surely for being at all the away games you get one

TheUlteriorMotive · May 9, 2019, 7:40pm

@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy what are the TV statistics revealing about who is Ireland’s favourite team. I suppose June 1 will tell a lot

lonelyisland236 · May 9, 2019, 7:42pm

Will be interesting considering it’s Liverpool vs United, should get loads

Ashman · May 9, 2019, 7:42pm

@Little_Lord_Fauntleroy

Will the TAM ratings include the hundreds in the Ratoath Inn ?

FlakeAway · May 9, 2019, 8:01pm

Been home & away all year, I’m still not guaranteed one.

Little_Lord_Fauntleroy · May 9, 2019, 8:05pm

Sigh

Fran · May 9, 2019, 9:35pm

Give us another unusual scenario there, this is enthralling

Sidney · May 9, 2019, 10:30pm

There hasn’t been a European Cup final between two league champions since 1998

That was before the full Champions League era which only began in 1999/2000

So all competitions since then have been worthless

We know this because of what another poster here has told us

We also know from the same poster that European Cups before the full Champions League era were worthless as they were supposedly easier to win

So all European Cup/Champions League competitions since 1956 are worthless

GeoffreyBoycott · May 9, 2019, 10:44pm

There would seem to be a small window there from 1992-98 when it was a worthwhile competition to win. Outside of that, worthless.
