Champions League Final 2006
 

Does anyone know who will be covering the final on May 17th. ITV1 or Sky Sports, or both? :confused:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

The game will be shown on Skysports 1

:)

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Both like last year when we won it 5 times I'd imagine.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Hopefully ITV so more people can see Arsenal win

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Err...jellybaby says SS1 and Smicer says both. All I really need to know is that it will definitely be on ITV1. I'm about to cancel my Sky subscription and so I don't want to get caught out.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

If you check my link it says only SS1

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

You won it five times last season ?

Bet the players were knackered, after all those games. :D

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

On the subject of this, it's ridiculous how Uefa allocate tickets, what is the point of selling so many to neutrals when they simply sell them on at unbelievably inflated prices? I just got quoted £1500 from a ticket agency.

Edit that was for 1 ticket.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Mmmm....I'd better not cancel just yet then!

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Naturally. They are the Ars€, but they are British*, so we have to cheer them on ... even if it chokes us ... :D




*sort of

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

I'm pretty sure it is on both as part of the joint rights between Sky/Itv.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Deleted :o

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

applied for tickets as one of the neutrals as i do every year but not got tickets so far.. i would have gone if i got them

would prefer the game to be on Sky as can't stand Pleat and the other commentators they use

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

I don't understand why someone employed as a commentator can't pronounce the names of world famous players, and as for Clive "That night in Barcelona" Tyldesley.... :mad:

I see that Townsend and McCoist are still not allowed back in the studio. They must have been naughty boys.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

it just looks so unprofessional when McCoist and Townsend have to stand on the edge of the pitch.. on the plus side it means you can't always here what they are saying :D

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Villareal 0 Arsenal 0
The best team got knocked out IMO, but that's football, it reminded me of last years FA Cup final, all one way traffic, in fact I am not sure Arsenal had an attempt on goal.................

Oh and er............that wasn't a penalty either

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Arsenal played ****!!!!!!!!!!!!
Did`nt deserve to win but i watched the game and cheered them on because i`m English............... What a crock of **** from people who are payed so much.:erm: :( If i performed like that in my job for £300 a week i`d be out on my **** let alone £40,000 a week.!!!!!!!!!!!! ******s.:td:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

I was praying to the lord almighty for arsenal to get beat tonight not too worry they will get out classed in the final i cannot believe some of the sh*te ars**ne wanger comes out with he needs a good hiding.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

What A Save!

We Gonna Go Paris!

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Apparantly, Wenger didn't see it.........

If the Arsenal play like that in the final, I can see a massacre on the cards.....

Heres hoping :p:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Come on Barca/Milan! Arsenal have only played one English player in the competition this season- Campbell tonight- so you can't really call them English!

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

pffft what final are you in.

COME ON ARSENAL!

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Well, I think you had better make the most of it because I don't think you will be europe next season, unless you are going to watch Spurs, Man Utd, Liverpool or Chelsea :D

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

We're in the FA Cup final. Champion's League final was SO last year :p:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Sorry. The Champions get automatic entry :cool:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Dunno if it's changed since you posted, but it now says its on SS1 / ITV

"Wed 17/05 19:45 Sky Sports 1 /
ITV1 AC Milan or Barcelona v Arsenal or Villarreal UEFA Champions League Final "

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Hopefully at the expense of Spurs

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

If Arsenal play like they did tonight, Barca/Milan* will rip them to bits. On the upside, Arsenal can't play any worse than they did tonight (I hope) :disturbd:

*My money is on Barca :cool:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Been there, done that ... :zzz:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Arsenel played appalingly badly last night - 80 minutes and NO attempts on goal? :rolleyes:

I hope they get spanked in the final.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

I hope Barca get to the final.

Then Henri won't mind losing to his new team mates :)

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Seemed to me that Arsenal weren't really trying last night. They knew they needed a nil nil draw, and just worked toward that..

Made for a boring game though.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

I won't be cheering Arsenal to win this time. I always support the UK team, but being a Spurs supporter if Arsenal do win the 4th position that spurs are in at the moment will be cancelled out by Arsenal. So come on the other Team.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Did you see the pitch invader with the Barca shirt that had Henry on the back. :p:

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

looks at how Arsenal have got there so far they haven't really played anyone

in the Group stages they beat Ajax 2-1 Away and then the rest of the teams don't count.. by the time they had to play Ajax at home they had already topped the group and that became an easy game

against the ageing stars of Real Madrid they only managed one goal and had very few chances.. considering most of the team is past their prime and they need zimmer frames to get round the pitch Real weren't much opposition

Juve despite being 10 points clear in Serie A never even turned up for either match

at home to VillarReal they played a team set out not to do anything and never attacked or used any skill and still only got one goal.. in lasts nights match they were rubbish for 90 mins and VillarReal were all over them and deserved to score although they couldn't put the ball in the net.. when the pen was taken, Lehman had already dived over to his left and still Riquelme kicked it straight at him.. hardly a great save when the ball is kicked at out

they get all the luck going and haven't been a great side but the results just keep falling their way

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Yeah - you'd think Henri's agent would have picked a better moment to deliver the good news :D

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

nice comments from Wnger but if he believes them the only way forward is to have it for just the champions and not have the positions going down to forth place in the league

the rules for the competition have changed and now the holders have to defend the trophy no matter where they finish in the league.. all teams entered the comp with this being the rules so is Arsenal finish 5th or lower and win it they will be in no matter what the FA say

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Arsenal have not conceded in 10 games. They are in the final and real madrid and Juve are still good teams.

This is a achivement for Arsenal no matter how you try to spin it. They played bad yesterday but they managed to hold up.

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

Even more surprising when you consider Arsenal's shocking away record.

Still, a win would see BBking returning to the football thread! :D

Re: Champions League Final 2006
 

The young team did do well this year in europe and hopefully this will transfer to the league next year. Regarding yesterday sometimes you need to be able to dig in and survive for 90 minutes when you seem to be playing really really REALLY bad.
