      Wish me luck today, lads. Find out today whether I’ve been successful in the ballot for tickets for the final. 1 in 3.7 chance apparently, unfair really as the ‘UEFA family’, their sponsors, hangers-on will all be there in their masses, I’m sure. Only 63% of our 16,600 are going to general fans, the remainder go to sponsors, players, staff, corporates etc. The normal fan is just an inconvenience!

      Anyway, keep your fingers crossed for me. I’m waiting for that email!

          Best of luck mate. I see hotels have quadrupled their prices now

          Also heard some people who had rooms in Kiev before Liverpool were confirmed in the final have had them cancelled and offered back at silly money

          Scandalous

                Thanks for the good wishes, lads. Not heard anything yet but the general concensus on line is that the results will be out around 3pm. I’ll let you know!

                  On the subject of being priced out, until somebody actually makes a stand for the community and until ‘A’ particular club will bow down in support of these fans, then I’ve resigned pretty much of the idea of ever acquiring any decent tickets beyond my local team, and embrace the Sky boxes.

                  Might as well.

                    Still heard nothing! All I have heard is that Real Madrid are subsidising their fans to get to Kiev with flights costing a mere £299. Thomas Cook, Liverpool’s official partner (in crime!) have today changed their advertised day trip to Kiev from £749 to £899, the day of the ballot. And that is a flight on the morning of the game from Liverpool and returning straight after the game. And the match ticket, if I’m lucky enough to get one will be around £150. And the sad thing is, I and thousands more will still pay it, but it is just bloody robbery. UEFA, Liverpool FC, Thomas Cook – the modern day highwaymen

                      Mate, either way, I really hope you get to go and don’t get put off by the shifting of prices.

                      Fingers crossed for good fortunes as effectively, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity.

                        Thanks, Nil, I appreciate the sentiment but actually being a Liverpool fan means that it isn’t a once in a lifetime opportunity! I’ve done Champions League and Euro finals before, but that’s not really the point. I’ve been to all 6 home Champions League matches this season, 7 if you include the qualifier against Hoffenheim in August, I’m a season ticket holder coughing up £850 a season for more years than I care to think, and yet there’s a good chance I won’t get a ticket for the final, and if I do, I will be royally stiffed for my hard-earned.

                        I know it’s a well worn whinge, and I guess I’m lucky to have the option of seeing my team in a European final, but it still is daylight robbery.

                              Perhaps not quite as impressive but I discovered the other week a colleague of mine has a brother who’s apparently got a box at the new Lane… “Let me know next time you’re in London and I’ll get me brother to sort you out…” was the comment…

                                  Chucky – won’t be able to afford the beers, pal! I’m just dreading spending a 4 figure sum and it being a night I want to forget!!

                                    That is the downside pal, but being a Spud lover, I’d be going given half the chance if it was my boys playing… what if you don’t go and they win?
