I think Bayern has a shot to win....the first 30 minutes are going to be great. I think Bayern tries to get a goal early, then go into a defensive shell.Quote:

Not least to say retards from Woking, Watford and the like now get a weekend in Bavaria after a night on the tiles in Barcelona; which will be TOTALLY lost on them.
For the remainder of this Champions League season, GHH will strongly be rooting for Munich. (Or Madrid if they win later tonight.).
Hail.
Lost in all the Champions League excitement is the steady play of West Ham in the "Championship" in their attempts to get promoted back to the Premier League. West Ham had an unbeaten run of 11 matches in February-March; unfortunately only four of those matches were wins, the other seven were ties. This allowed them to be jumped by Reading, who has gone on to secure automatic promotion, and allowed Southampton to distance themselves. With one match to go, West Ham is two points behind Southampton needing a win against Hull City to leap into second and take the second automatic promotion. Unfortunately, Southampton also has one match left, and it's against Coventry, who is being relegated. The expectation is that West Ham will have to win their promotion via the playoff, where they should be favored, but still...
My buddy from Germany is all fired up today for the Bayern Munich match. I'm glad his team made it through even if mine got knocked out months ago. I consider Munich like my German team anyway.
She gave up trying years ago :-)Quote:

I just hope Bayem wins, I can't stand rooting for Madrid.
And maybe Pepe to suffer a broken ankle or something.
One of my best ever pre-game 'tailgates' i(n your parlance) was in Monaco back in 2001 before the Super Cup against Munich.Quote:

And as it would of been totally impolite to turn down the finest German beer, one HELL of an afternoon party was had with our new found German friends. :D

All CL games, save for the odd game in Russia with the time difference, are a standardized 7:45PM GMT KO. So 2:45 PM EST.Quote:

The worst part of all, he left Liverpool to win trophies and Liverpool was not a big enough team (paraphrasing his words). Now he is in the Champion's League final after scoring the decisive goal. I hate this on so many levels. If Chelsea wins and Manchester United win the EPL, I don't think I can cope with it.Quote:
