    The Europa League final has about as much atmosphere as Oakwell on a cold and windy Tuesday night. What a terrible place to hold a final!

    At least I didn't pay to watch this. It's free on BT's YouTube channel.

    The footballs terrible an all, Savage's punditry makes him sound like he was Pele when he played.

    "It should have been a penalty"
    "Giroud should have put his head on that..."
    "Giroud should have connected better with that.."

    Never a pen for me. He was diving and had to slide his leg out to just brush the keepers head. Some pundits would claim he was entitled to look for the contact but for me that’s cheating

    Watching it on BT which I pay for for the Moto GP coverage which they won from the BBC.
    To be fair the beeb coverage was always pants, obviously not a sport they're interested in any excuse to interrupt it or cut it short, tennis and golf always seemed to take priority if on at the same time. You're right though it's not a particularly thrilling game and in such a big open stadium there's not much of an atmosphere.

    Just hope someone scores. Don’t think I could keep awake if it goes to extra time.

    Ajax and Barcelona didn't get away with a 3 goal lead, but I think Chelsea will.

    I've also managed to miss all three goals because the fridge door broke.

    Did the light keep going off when you shut the door?
