UEFA Win Lets Kill Football Award

UEFA Win Lets Kill Football Award

For me football has reached new lows this Andre Dawson Jersey week . What am I referring to? GennaroGattuso a saultingTottenham coach Joe Jordon after their heroic 1-0 win against AC Milan at the San Siro. Millwall fans throwing plastic beer bottles on the pitch during their 3-2 defeat to Middlesbrough. Both shocking incidents that have no place in football, but no, this weeks Lets Kill Football Award goes to UEFA after they revealed the cheapest tickets for the UEFA Champions League Final at Wembley will cost a staggering 150 PLUS an extortionate 26 admin fee!April Fools Day has come early this year folks, because this has to be a joke!This is the first time the Champions League Final will take place at Wembley, it should be a joyous occasion, the greatest Club Football Competition in the World comes home, and who would bet against 2 English teams meeting in the final. It would be a dream to see two English teams battle it out in the UEFA Champions League Final at Wembley. Sadly I fear for me and Starlin Castro Jersey 1000s more working cla s football fans the dream is dead.How many people in this day and age can spare 176 to go watch a football match in the cheap seats? Thats not even taking into consideration travel, food, drink, and a souvenir of this momentous occasion.Maths isnt my strong point but look at it like this, a game of football is 90 minutes long so you are paying about 1.95 Giancarlo Stanton Jersey per minute! Then consider the ball is actually only in live play an average of 70 minutes, this means your paying approximately 2.50 a minute! You can phone certain Premium Rate numbers for cheaper!Then theres the ridiculous 26 Admin Charge, whats that for? Sticking some tickets in an envelope and sending them? If this is the case Im in the Jose Fernandez Jersey wrong job!Last year UEFA President Michele Platini moved the Champions League Final from midweek to a Saturday evening so more children could watch the biggest game in club football. Mums and dads be grateful because theres a package! One adult and one child can go to the Champions League Final at Wembley on May 28th for only 338!Are the people that can afford these tickets the fans that will watch their team come rain or shine, singing their heart out? Do they wear their football shirt with pride?There were over 70,000 fans at a hostile San Siro last Tuesday night, only 4000 or so Tottenham fans and yet you could hear the Spurs fans singing throughout the match. I wonder if Spurs continue their amazing run and get to the Champions League Final , how many of those fans that were in Milan could afford to go to the final at Wembley? My gue s, not many.My worry is that come May 28th, Wembley will have no atmosphere and will be full of Corporate Football Fans, while the Real Football Fans like myself Miami Marlins Jersey will be sat at home watching it on the TV.Money is killing the game I love.
