On the Road Again!

Not the result we wanted, but losing on penalties shows where we are now. PSG were unable to score other than with a penalty. The game ended 1-1 after 120 minutes. Two missed penalties from our players in the penalty shootout handed the trophy to PSG.  They had one penalty saved by Raya, but it wasn't enough.

Need to think positively... At the ground I met my brother Neill and Helen who I go with to all the games since the club moved to Emirates Stadium. We also met our friend Ashley who had flown from Singapore. Unfortunately the ladies didn't match the dress code.

Whilst it would have been nice to have been there, in Budapest, to go to the game, the ticket cost and the travel would have made it almost impossible to have done it. Instead we are going to go up to the Emirates and watch it on the big screens. My brother Neill booked the tickets on the first round that was pretty much for season ticket (Gold) holders. It means that Phil, who goes when I can't, is unable to join us. The ticket price was £15 and Club Level tickets £20. We decided to see what Club Level seats are like. You never know.

Plus, we also need to check out the weather forecast. All week it has been hot and muggy at home. Shorts and t-shirts. Tomorrow though? Hopefully my new be...

PSG!! Despite it being a massive stadium in Budapest the teams are getting about half split into halves again, 16500. UEFA will be able to reward all their arse kissers and other tossers with seats that genuine fans could have used, but the corporate troughs need to be filled.... And the prices are disgustingly expensive.
