Arsenal fans I know have said they would rather we both lose our respective finals than both win. Was slightly surprised as for them it means CL qualification on top of the actual joy of winning a tournament.

Mate said something similar. I don't get it. Really couldn't give a fuck what other teams do as long as spurs win.

The thought of Tottenham getting to a CL final is other London teams nightmare. If we win the damn thing in Madrid....OMG!

The idea of winning the CL ahead of Arsenal. It's crazy they'd rather both didn't win because it'll be less damaging for them. If we win, If we bloody win the CL

Because it's the one trophy they couldn't get during their glory years. Would trump anything Wenger got for them. I think that's the way they see it anyway. Would leave them and City as the only teams in the top 6 who would not have won it.

Still don't agree with that type of thinking. Just pettyness. Cutting your nose off to spite yourself. It's not just arsenal a spurs mate agreed with him if it was the other way around.
They were in the minority though. Load of arsenal mates congratulated me on weds. I congratulated them yesterday.

Because it will be a victory that will last for all eternity ! They’ve never done it even when they had all those fantastic teams through the late 90s and 00s. We’d be the first and it could never be taken away from us till the ends of time. So, I can understand it a little even if CL qualification this season for them could be so so important in the short term, and they’d have another European trophy. But then again it’s something that we’ve also won multiple times...

Every team has a mix of decent fans right through to utter bellends. We're no different. It's the gobby minority that take pleasure in being complete tossers and plaster the internet with their bile. I'm fairly certain there are even a couple of Liverpool fans out there that aren't total pillocks.:)

Same here. I think a majority of the malice comes from the younger generation. People who held players like Wheelchair in such high esteem.

I have many arsenal mates and we all share healthy banter. Sure no one wants the other to win, and I for one would revel in the joy if they last the EL finale, just as they would raise a glass if we lost in the CL final.

But I think that the younger generation as a whole has mistaken banter for vitriolic abuse.

Had a peek on an Inter forum out of curiosity. Some of them are really hate us for some reason:

"Spurs are a disgusting club. We should be ashamed for being a mere catalyst for their way to the final. No, we wouldn't do better out of groups, we would've been knocked out by Dortmund. But that's not the point.

Thing is, they are a disgusting club, and we are at fault for this great disaster in football history.

As for the final, fuck it. It's not worth watching it.

But if spurs win, don't even watch football ever after. It would be the end of the Football World."


"This is the longest streak of not celebrating any trophy for either finalist. Tottenham last won a trophy in 2008, Liverpool last won a trophy in 2012. That's 18 years combined. I cannot find anything longer. Leverkusen's streak was like 8-9 yeras before they reached the 2002 final which was probably the longest streak before this one.

Such a let down. Ajax in the final, especially vs Barcelona, would have been historic. This is just a bad parenthesis."

They're probably just salty cos we knocked 'em out but I don't get why some people are so keen for these "historic" clubs to reach the final. Ajax would've been a great story, sure, but it's a bit fucking boring if the same teams who are part of a select group of "elite" clubs always win.

Wtf is their problem with us?!!!
The jewish club bollocks again?

An office gooner says it'd be the "darkest day in the history of football" if we were to win, and I quote, "their" trophy.

I shouldn't give a fuck but it really shows the gulf in class.

If they visited this site after their result on Tuesday night, they'd have seen pretty much unanimous praise for not just their result, but the manner in which they achieved it. Even during the game itself, it was nothing but praise & admiration for the speed of their play, the movement, the desire they all had.

Many were even saying they'll deserve to win the CL, and their performances & consistency deserves something.

Fast forward 24 hours & look at them in comparison.

That's scousers for ya!

The whole of catholic Europe think like this mate. There was a Portuguese lad at my last place of work, made a crack about Harry Kane playing for a Jew team.

Maybe the Hennessey incident is a true indicative, and not just bollock. Maybe we don't teach recent history properly in schools anymore.

Schools haven't taught anything, or anyone, properly for decades.
