Yet they would have preferred City, I dont get this United love on here.

Rather City win another treble than them c*nts win anything.

I think you misunderstand. There’s no love for United but there’s no way I want to see a team that cheats win anything. It goes against everything I believe in as far as sport is concerned.

United have not cheated their way to this trophy.

So you would prefer United win the league over them as well?

Terrible audition from Ortega if he wants to be a number one. Him an Gvardiol for that first one are brain dead. The second is straight at him really, he's had to manipulate himself out of the way

Always nice when Cartel Legacy club beats their impoverished FFP slaves. Evil won today. If only City weren’t constrained by Cartel rules maybe they could compete.

Apparently Lyon ultras attacked PSG ultras at a rest stop, and the two scrapped.

There are also videos of Lyon supporter buses on fire.

Separately, the U19 final between Nancy and Marseille was stopped because of PSG ultras showing up and lobbing flares at Marseille's goalkeeper.

Ever since the pandemic, the uptick violence in French football is alarming. Several matches have been abandoned, including Nice-Marseille in 2021, Lyon-Marseille in 2021, the Coupe de France Final in 2022, and Marseille-Lyon in 2023.

Combined with the authorities' lack of ability to handle anything (see the CL final in 2022), it's truly concerning.

Since you asked…..yes.

Let me be very clear there’s no way that I would prefer to see a team that cheats win. Cheating is a stain on the game. I cannot state that all clubs and supporters should get together and demand that City are dealt with severely and then put that to one side just because I don’t like United.

One fundamental part of the game is staying within the rules but once a team cheats then they deserve zero respect. I may not like United but I respect any team that works hard and sticks to the rules.

I’ll throw the question back to you. So you would prefer to see a cheating club win? Would you concede that this is the sort of rivalry that indirectly condones what City have done. In my view the bigger picture is stopping the cheats from winning anything.

I agree with you about not wanting to see the cheats win anything.

United didn’t deserve to be in the final though - should have been Coventry. United just have different ways of making sure things go their way.

The gulf in talent between the two is massive. Kaiserslautern have nothing to lose. They need to commit more forward.

rafathegaffa83 · « **Reply #469 on:** May 25, 2024, 08:38:29 pm »

Should be 0-2. Awful decision making from Frimpong.

They're towards the bottom of the 2nd division in fairness.
Like Sheffield Wednesday playing us in a cup final.

There are two sides to it. If Leverkusen hadn't played a European final a few days ago and aren't 10 men down here, they would've enjoyed the majority of possession and finished the game earlier.
