Re: Season 2018/2019

Tottenham stadium hosts the Europa League final and Old Trafford hosts the Champions League final. It really isn't that hard. This is solely down to whatever the host nation lined UEFA's pockets with. Silly sponsorship deals and broadcasting rights that again suit them and not fans.

The only people to lose out by changing the locations are Spurs fans and they'd be losing far far less than they currently will.

Local and chain businesses can't be forgiven either. Cashing in at maniac prices. Isn't even just football, the rugby champions Cup is in Newcastle today and hotel prices are close to £400 a night for £50 a night hotels that are basically dumps.

Then there's those buying tickets with intention to resell. The thought of a champions league ticket going for £5,000 a ticket, add another making it £10,000 and set aside another £1000 at least for travel and accommodation. An excellent condition Focus zetec anyone that barely a year or two old? Or a season ticket for the next 12 years. Tickets should be resold in the same format as those Ed Sheeran ones were. Face Value on a single legitimate website and tickets sold elsewhere are invalid.

Re: Season 2018/2019

People will already have got tickets for the respective finals on general sale though. As well as the 'football family' there will be neutral tickets, often designed for the locals, already purchased.

Re: Season 2018/2019

If Arsenal and Chelsea feel that bad about it, they should tell FIFA (and Sky) to shove the match where it hurts . . .


oh hang on, it's all about money not football

We're talking about the fans not the clubs.

Re: Season 2018/2019

Uefa s response to the 6,000 ticket allocation is pathetic. They said that due to the small size of Baku airport only 15,000 fans would be able to travel to Azerbaijan from abroad. Idiots.

This sums up Baku.

Baku airport is small and has very limited capacity. Road and rail are difficult and long.

Re: Season 2018/2019

But its obviously the ideal place for European football finals and F1 dates. If only they knew things in advance though. FIFA were in the same boat with Qatar. Who'd guess they'd build stadiums on the back of slave labour and fall back on the idea managing to host it in the summer. Poor UEFA and FIFA constantly taking absurd bribes only for the countries to make an arse of it. I'd finish with a sarcastic emote but I don't even think that's necessary.

Just for further awareness. There are four Euro 2020 games to be hosted in Baku. One of which is a Quarter-Final. Genius.

Are they not part of the same thing?

Do the 'clubs' really give a flying one for the fans or not

A Singapore stockbroker is the major shareholder ! And this is the first match I've seen Beckham attend. He looked to be playing with his phone for most of it, you'd think he'd got out of that habit since his court appearance this week
