To me I think that Liverpool should get it, because, if they did win, they would be the champions and a place in the next competition should be one of the rewards for winning it.

I need to clean my mouth out after saying that. Also, I may need therapy...

Its a mute issue. Even if Liverpool beat Chelsea there is no way they will beat Meeeeelan.

sherer · 26-04-2005, 10:54

yes after all this talk Liverpool haven't won the comp yet and neither have Chelsea.. this is only the second time since 85 that an English side as got to the EC final

To be fair, Everton should get the place regardless. After all, they were the first English champions to be denied a place in the competition due to the Heysel aftermath, and we all know who got the blame for that. It would be grossly unfair and a cruel irony, to 'do' them again in favour of Liverpool.

Police appeal on football trouble

Police are appealing for more help in identifying troublemakers at Saturday's Irish League match between title rivals Glentoran and Linfield.

Four hundred fans forced their way onto the pitch after the final whistle at Belfast's Oval stadium.

Nine police officers and two fans were injured. Children were among hundreds who tried to protect themselves from glass and bricks thrown into the stand.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/4483219.stm

Lets hope the police can catch the morons who ruined the game at the weekend. Something needs to be done and soon. The fact that they were able to bring bottles into the ground shows the lack of security at Irish league games.

Thanks for that! I wish I had the status bar on, so I could have seen what that link was!

Bloody shock to the system.

I think that they're the lesser of two evils.

It doesn't happen very often.....and I'm getting goosebumps just thinking it but......

I hope Liverpool win

nffc · 26-04-2005, 23:49

I have a soft spot for Chelsea ever since they were **** (not anything like supporting them though) so I'll be rooting for the blue army :gerrin:

I heard this on the Radio the other day and grabbed it off the net. How true it is

:

1978
Wales win the Grand Slam in Rugby
The Pope Dies
Liverpool lose in the League Cup final to the eventual League Champions that year (Forest)
Liverpool win the European Cup

2005
Wales win the Grand Slam in Rugby
The Pope Dies
Liverpool lose in the League Cup final to the eventual League Champions that year (Chelsea)

Still not convinced? Read on ...

1981
Prince Charles got married
Ken and Deirdre (Coronation Street) got married
A new Doctor Who was appointed
Liverpool won the European Cup

2005
Prince Charles marries
Ken and Deirdre re-married
New Doctor Who starts with a new Doctor

So the omens are there and in true Liverpool style we all know that they are going to capitulate and lose

I hope not as I am a Liverpool fan.

To be honest I don't care who wins. No one is going to get past Milan.

TigaSefi · 27-04-2005, 09:25

gazzae, u must be blinkered cos I saw AC Milan last night and they did anything but impressed me, if PSV can stop them effectively for 90 mins like they did last night (they were undone by one sublime piece of skill from kaka and at 90mins they were tired) then I believe Chelsea or Liverpool will be able to execute their tactics even better.
