it`s ok for you with your buckets of cash

what about the ordinary fan?

It`s the same old corporate bollocks that will probably give the two competing clubs 20,000 tickets each and the rest will go to sponsors.

Companies like Sony haven`t spent millions on sponsorship not to get any tickets for all their friends and family.
They`ll all be there taking pictures like they do at Old trafford.

As far as EUFA and FIFA are concerned the average fan can f**k off because it`s all about power and making money.

rant over, for a while anyway
