It seems that trouble may have started already. A Chelsea supporter is in hospital with head injuries.

Arsenal supporters being checked to see if they have Mkhitaryan's name on their tops, UEFA have made a right fuck up here.

because Mkhitaryan's Armenian.
Apparently nothing has happened to those they've stopped but it's scandalous that Arsenal can't play a player because of is nationality and fans are having their tops checked to see if his names on it.

how far are the fans from the pitch on that far side? Ridiculous.
What the fuck was UEFAs criteria for selecting this venue? I'll hazard a guess at thickest brown envelope.

Atmosphere reminds me of when we were at Sixfields!
Imagine fans of both clubs having to fly from London then either having to drive 50 hours or take a 12 hour train to Baku...
I wonder if anyone on this forum would do it if we were in that position?

Never a pen, diving bastard. Of course Robbie Savage says contact = penalty.

If Cov got to a European final plenty would make the journey. Same for any smaller club with no major trophies for a long time
I guess Chelsea fans aren't that arsed as they have won the Champions League fairly recently
Arsenal have a few thousand more fans there. Such a shite venue, I'd get it if it was about spreading football to the locals but seeing as kick off was past 11pm that wasn't their agenda

My point wasnt Cov getting to a European Final, of course loads would go if hosted in Spain, France, Germany etc...
Do you honestly think loads would go if Cov were playing in Baku?

Depends on the context.... for Cov fans it would likely be the only European final we would ever be likely to see our club in. So wouldn't be surprised to see is at least sell our allocation but for Arsenal and Chelsea fans it's a Mickey mouse cup.... they'll probably each play in another European final in the next 20 years a bit closer to home.
I'd probably have booked a 10 day holiday around Antalya myself and then flew over for the final half way through all paid for by simply betting £10 that Cov would make it to the final.

If anyone thought the authorities still give a shit about fans this final tells you everything you need to know.
They can't even claim it makes a good spectacle on TV. There's no atmosphere, empty seats and you can't even see the fans who have managed to get there as they're so far from the pitch.

I can't believe this is a final.
Feels like a pre season friendly.

Yeah I know what you meant and my point was more would make the effort as it would be a freak occurrence for us.
I would for sure, take a loan or something. The last time we technically qualified for Europe we were robbed of the chance due to the UK ban so I'd love to see Cov in Europe

no. from the main stand, though both a similar distance from the pitch.
