Cheats never prosper... How about all the Inter guys who rolled on the ground as soon as they were touched, just to waste time?

Wasting time is sadly part of the game nowadays, like taking the ball to the corner to run down the clock - getting a fellow professional sent off is by far the greater of these two evils so it's good to see Barcelona OUT :D

I think rolling around on the ground in a deliberate attempt to get a fellow professionak sent off and succeeding is far worse Jaquie

Sorry, but we cannot have degrees of cheating, it's all the same in my book.  A very disappointing game that we had looked forward to all day.  Hope the final will be better.

And, what do women know about football anyway ;)

Can't really see the final being exciting. The desperation of both teams to win the trophy will probably cancel out any attempt to play open "sexy" football:(

I started my education in football standing in the Kop at 16 years old, cannot think of a better place to learn.  Wonder why men feel so threatened by woman who watch football.  My husband is totally different and sees the benefits of me loving football, as we watch the games together.
He got a call last night during the match from a guy who is doing some work for us, my husband asked why he was not watching the footie and was told "My wife hates football, so I can't watch it"
Keith,  I like Jose, he is a great Manager, but I agree with him, I don't like Italian Football,
but,I will be supporting Inter in the final.  I really don't want Bayen to win.

No comparision for a start we used get to the match one hour early for the pre match singing.  I think there is no footbal choir like the Kop.  :D

Haven't been to any of the places that sandgrounder cited or Anfiled for that matter, but the Kop singing You'll Never Walk Alone is surely one of the finest sights and sounds in sport anywhere in the world.
