Messi to score first and Barcelona to win 3-2 would be nice as I've got odds of 105/1 on it. If I can't have that I'll settle for 6-0 Barca. Sky keep telling me it's the most eagerly anticipated final ever. I must have missed the chance to vote on that, personally I was a bit more excited about the 1982 final.

Going for similar, 3-1 Barca Messi to score first.  Showing on 50/1 on ladbrokes.

It's not the Champions League Final, it's THE Final as the banner across the front of Wembley arrogantly states.

The CL has eaten the UEFA Cup and the League Cup, it's halfway through the FA Cup with the World Cup next on the menu.

I'm sure that winning or indeed competing in any other cup competition will soon be outlawed by UEFA to the end that teams will be forced to disband should they even mention the Johnstones Paint Trophy or some such trivialty.

We can then look forward to many more articles asking that tricky question "Why is Fergie so special?".

I would love Barcelona to totally embarass MU - don't think it'll happen, mind. Alex Ferguson is a such a horrible, arrogant, ignorant tosser that he doesn't deserve all he's achived as he's done it with such an unpleasant attitude to anyone not on his side.

I actually want Man Utd to win this.

I'm not sure what's happened. In the 90's I loathed all things Manure with a passion, but whether it's because there are far more teams to hate these days since the ascent of Chelsea and Arsenal, Fergie has become less of a cock as he's gotten older, or I'm just that much more mellow now than I was back then, I somehow don't find myself wanting to kick the tele in when I see them winning game after game after game.

Besides, I'm sick to death of hearing about how bloody brilliant Barcelona are. Sky bang on about them more than Rooneeeey or Stevie Geeeeeeeee.

Plus I always root for the underdog. Man Utd the underdog? What is the world coming to?

Well done mate, swoop down here after we haven't seen you for ages then you go and say exactly what I was going to.

Sky bang on about Barca being brilliant because it's true, they are.  Light years ahead of Man U or anybody else.  Sure, you'd get sick of it after a while but it's only for a short time as they have to concentrate on selling the bigger fish and that's the Premier league.  And who's the top of that who they like to bang on about?  Sky will be unbearable if Man U win the European cup, unbearable.  ITV, or should I say Clive Tyldesley, will be a new word that is unbearable to the power of 10.  I couldn't take that and nobody should have to.  So we must hope that Man U get the stuffing that they should and hopefully Tyldesley will burst into tears live on air for the amusement of all the nation.

Without wanting to go into a full on debate, I'm bored of Barcelona, I'm bored of their style of football, I'm bored of everyone telling me that's how football should be played, I'm bored of their ridiculous cheating when things aren't going exactly their way, I'm bored of them getting big, big decisions constantly in their favour and I hope they get smashed.

I don't mind Man Utd, they are always the safeguard for me in ensuring the Cockney's don't win the thing. I don't care who wins tonight, as long as it's a good game.

2 seats have become available in the prawn cocktail section with both Blatter and Hammam announcing their non attendance. Any takers?

Has everybody suddenly got a dose of Ferguson's myopic amnesia where Man Ure are concerned?

I can not imagine why any football fan in this Country other than actual Manure supporters would support them in  this game when the opposition is the  wonderful artisans  from Barca with their enchanting claret and blue strip.

Quote taken out of context as I was talking only about Barcelona, and that was one of many things that piss me off.

So there.

More like a Spanish Palace to me.

 >:( Grrr I've put £10 on 3-1 Barca/Messi 1st scorer at Corals this morning and got 45/1. I will be fuming if it happens and I only get £460 back now.

If you replaced Barcelona with Man Utd it would make more sense to me. The difference is Barcelona are fantastic to watch, Man United have Michael Carrick. Like all the right thinking people on here I hope they get well and truly destroyed.
