Champions league final

AARRRGH

Hello all

I'm still waiting to see who the referee is, but most likely I am going to lay less than three yellow cards, or less than one yellow and one red card. (My logic is if there is a goal, the other team will get frustrated as the game progresses and force the referee to hand out cards, also some referees are generous with the card giving, and with the game being a final players tend to be less worried about getting a card.)

What are your thoughts on this game?

Anytime scorer Ronaldo!

EDIT: 2/1 anytime, 9/2 first.

Alfie Boon

I have a fiver on Ferdinand at 40/1 for first goal,5 on 2-0 to united at 12/1 and 5 on ronaldo for first goal also,6/1
I think im nuts:D

AARRRGH

OK the referee is Massimo Busacca. He doesn't appear to be too generous with the cards, so I may have to rethink this one:

Layed the card index market (5 points and above). Got 1/3 odds which is excellent.

Trippie

"These two footballing giants" seems a good bet at 16's for just at the kick off or right after it

Man utd to win. This is what they do best with a full strength squad and them well rested ready for action. Fergie and the team will be well psyched up for this. Rooney and Ronaldo will have a big influence on this game. C'mon United!

I fancy a euro on United to win 4-1 at 70/1.....am I mental?

Tevez to score 2 goals within 90 minutes at 35/1 seems good too..

Xavi 1-0 - 75-1

Halftime - Barcelona
Fulltime - United

8 euro at 24/1

He is. Still debating with myself to put money on this. Kind of broke but have a job interview on Friday and if I get that I'll be kicking myself if I don't put anything on it and it comes good..

Fiver on Ronaldo first goalscorer and United 3-1 and a fiver on Ronaldo for the first goal and United 3-0.

It was discussed on page 1, listing is here. Has to be within the live commentary during the 90mins+ stoppage time and its the first one from a list of phrases. I might be missing something as I haven't watched ITV in ages but there must be a good chance they will say this early on.

Thank you Ronaldo and Scholes! I was beginning to get a bit stressed there. €100 win for me.

Woot woot. However, I got lucky and I'd be highly peeved if I was on overs because it deserved to be. Now time to lump on Spain for the World Cup.

MOTM was Xavi, I thought it should have been Iniesta. Some match, I lost but I'm just glad I'm not a Utd fan!
