Just love their stadium, their fans, especially that "yellow wall". The way the players just climbed the fence at the end, fantastic!!! Great club.

Was watching them celebrate on the TV, had my 4 month old lad in my arms and I told him we'll do the same at Northumberland Park one day :)

Might I also say that the Dortmund coach is a few sandwiches short of a picnic. Never heard him interviewed before but the guy is only tethered to sanity by a very thin thread.

Cheers Dubai, I had only seen another interview with Klopp after the game.

Refreshing to see someone who doesn't feel the need to hide his feelings or play mind games after the match. Also cool to see that he was honest about their performance and chances going forward. Also seemed like he was high on something, no wonder, I can't even imagine how I would feel and act if that was Spurs.

Yes I am rather jealous of all that, but as you say maybe we can have our own white wall one day. Then all we need is a giant banner of a guy with binoculars. Mad.
 
'Wigan Athletic have so far failed to sell at least 10,000 of their allocated tickets for Saturday's FA Cup semi-final against Millwall. This has prompted the FA to take the unprecedented step of opening a zone for neutral fans. Both clubs were allocated just over 31,000 tickets for the game.'
 
Uefa is studying remarks made by Malaga's president following his side's controversial Champions League exit.

Abdullah Bin Nasser Al Thani questioned Uefa's integrity and suggested racism was a factor in his team's dramatic defeat by Borussia Dortmund.

The Bundesliga side scored twice in injury time to complete a stunning 3-2 win and move into the last four.

"It will now be analysed by our disciplinary inspectors," said UEFA general secretary Gianni Infantino.

Speaking at the Soccerex conference, Infantino added: "They will act if they have to act depending on what has been said.

"I can understand when you lose a match in the 93rd minute the emotions come up and maybe you say things that you don't really think and you really don't want to say."

Al Thani said on Twitter: "I'm sorry to go out this way, injustice and racism."

He added: "This is not football, but racism and clear of all.

"I hope to open a thorough investigation [by] Uefa regarding the Spanish club [going] out in this way."

Malaga plan to make a formal complaint about Scottish referee Craig Thomson and his officiating team.

Al-Thani, of the Qatari Royal Family, was named owner of Malaga in June 2010 after the 53-year-old bought the Spanish club.

A series of off-the-field financial problems mean Malaga are banned from European competition for one season when they next qualify.

A "neutral zone" with Millwall? Great idea. This is a club who worked so hard to eradicate hooliganism, spent a stack of their own cash to set up a members only policy. Now the FA are going to dice with that, in one of Millwall's biggest games in recent history. Not all Millwall fans are hooligans, far from it, but watch the scum element come out of the woodwork in force.

All because the FA want to make their quick buck. If you want to play every semi final at Wembley then you have to live with the fact that not every club can fill it.
 
Dortmund are fantastic to watch! Barca may play better footbal at their best but Dortmund consistently play better football in my eyes. That first goal was a thing of beauty! They've won the Bundesliga twice in a row but failed miserably in the CL last season so it's clear where their priorites laid this season.

I really hope they win it!
 
At least Wigan aren't going to be taking a host of plastics along like most lower level teams & Southend did last week for the JPT who got slagged off for popping along for the big day out, plus Bradford for the Carling Cup. If Wigan took 30,000 like Southend they'd be getting criticised too for not going to home games each week. They can't win either way. They get brick for only their regular fans going but others get slagged off for taking thousands of part-timers.

They're a small rugby town where football has & always will come second. Get over it. The fact that it's in London is a joke too. The semis shouldn't be at Wembley and only are to rake in the cash spent on it in the first place. The price of a day out with the big journey is ridiculous.

I'd love a PSG goal to make it interesting but I just feel Barca will score first and then run rampant, 3-0.
 
Fabregas is such a dingdonghead. Kicks the ground and appeals for a penalty. Lucas Moura gets absolutely shoved in the back by Jordi Alba when about to cross at full speed from the end line, sending him into the advertising boards. Dirty play in my eyes; Moura just gets up and gets on with it. Fabregas feels a light breeze on his back on a throw-in and goes down like he's been shot. I hate watching Barcelona for this reason; Fabregas just epitomizes what I don't like about them. Clearly, they are talented, blah blah blah; I just can't respect them as a team. Rant over. At least until the next thing I see from them that sends me into a rage.
